Not everyone needs to sell their house in order to buy, but the reality is that the majority of us do!

Maybe you are in the early stages of looking for suitable properties, and need an accurate valuation of your home, and maybe some advice to help you with your plans – I would be pleased to help. Perhaps your house is already on the market, and you’d like a second opinion, I can help with that too.

To successfully sell your house at the right price and buy the next one, it is essential to have an Agent with proven local knowledge and valuation experience. I have 25 years of experience – the majority of which have been spent working specifically within the Country Houses market.

The first few weeks of marketing your house are vitally important. Having an Agent that can put your house in front of the right buyers from the outset makes all the difference.

At Hobbs Parker, we have specialist agents within Country Houses, Ashford Homes, The Villages, Tenterden Homes and Equestrian Properties with dedicated valuers specialising in these properties.

With over 160 years of experience in Ashford and its surrounding villages, Hobbs Parker offers you all of this expertise and experience under one roof.

Whatever stage you are at, feel free to give me a call. I would be happy to help.
