About Central Estate Agents, Walthamstow

179 Hoe Street, London, E17 3AP
Industry affiliations:

Proudly rooted in East London since 1992, Central Estate Agents has grown hand-in-hand with the communities we serve. What began in Walthamstow has steadily expanded-reaching Leytonstone and Leyton in 2020, and most recently, Highams Park and Chingford in 2024. We were honoured to be named Best Estate Agent in London 2024 by All Agents, one of the UK's most trusted customer review platforms. This recognition means the world to us because it reflects the real experiences of the people we've helped along the way.

As a truly independent, community-focused agency, we believe in making a difference-both in property and in people's lives. That's why we give back 10% of our profits to support local schools, charities, and events-strengthening the neighbourhoods that mean so much to us. Selling houses is what we do. Moving people is why we do it. Whether it's a first flat, a family home, or a new rental, we know every move is a big moment-and we're here to make it as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Our team is our greatest strength. From experienced Directors to future stars just starting out, everyone shares the same values: honesty, care, clear communication, and a drive to keep improving. We're proud to be constantly evolving, always listening, and always focused on what really matters: helping you move forward with confidence.

Thanks for considering Central Estate Agents. We're ready when you are.
