About Michael Bailey, Powered by Keller Williams, Preston

29 Manor Avenue, Penwortham, Preston PR1 0XH

Not all estate agents are the same - and neither are their clients.

That’s why we don’t start with a sales pitch. We start with a simple question:

“What’s important to you about your move?”

Because when we understand your reasons for selling, we can tailor everything - from the strategy to the marketing - to deliver exactly what you need.

We work with a select number of clients at any one time. Why?

Because we believe you deserve full focus, not divided attention.

This means more time, more care, and ultimately, better results.

Our approach is built around two non-negotiables:

✅ Delivering the highest possible price for your property

✅ Doing it with as little stress as possible

From Preston and South Ribble to the Fylde Coast, we’re proud to represent sellers who expect more - more service, more expertise, and more value.

From weekly training and global best practices to standout social media exposure, we stay ahead - so your home does too.

Estate agency has changed.

If you're open to a smarter, more service-led way to sell your home, we’d love to show you what that looks like.
