Lauristons understand the importance of buying, selling, letting or renting a property and are here to provide the guidance, expertise and advice as you embark on this significant journey. Moving home is one of life’s most critical financial and emotional decisions and you need to choose the right agent.
At Lauristons we pride ourselves on several core values that have stood us in good stead since we opened in 1994 and that have always had the most benefit to our customers.
We employ the best local people, who know our towns, who have a passion to be the best at what they do, to get the best price, to get the result our customers expect. We then train them to the highest industry standards to make sure the advice they are giving is accurate and appropriate.
We blend traditional techniques with modern technology to offer a tailored service to each of our clients, knowing what to use and when. Lauristons have always been at the forefront on industry innovation, so as well as some of the things you might expect such as professional photography, floorplans, high quality property brochures, glossy local magasine advertising, Rightmove, Zoopla and a myriad of other portals, we have invested heavily in new initiatives.
Lauristons state of the art new website launched in late 2017 attracts 1000s of people every day to us, and that Google ranks on page 1 when people search for estate or lettings agents in our towns. We are available to our customers 24/7 and have made it mobile friendly without the need for extra apps. We have pioneered a platform to reach out to over 4000 local people through Facebook, Twitter and Instagram who aren't even registered with us to promote every instruction we have to the most relevant audience. We then use all that data to provide value to our customers through regular updates, local news, useful advice and of course property updates.
As importantly, once we have found your buyer, there are 8-12 weeks of specialised chain management and progression of your sale through to exchange of contracts. Whilst it's not the most glamorous part of our job, it is undoubtedly the most technical and what you pay a large portion of the fee for us to manage for you. The industry average fall through rate is 30%. It is much higher with agents that don't have well trained qualified estate agents managing that file on a daily basis after a sale has been agreed.
We believe we have a comprehensive marketing strategy that combines the best of the skills our people have, with the more traditional elements our industry has to offer, with the latest innovations in our ever increasing digital world.
RebeccaInteresting sales process, but we got there in the end. James was very helpful keeping the sale together & dragging everyone over the line.
Paul WilliamsExcellent service from the team at Lauristons and James Wheatley in particular. Their very proactive sales approach seen the property under offer at our agreed target price within 3 weeks. James did a good job managing the various interested parties through to exchange and in particular in the inevitable survey based re-negotiation. I am very pleased with the price we achieved and in particular with the service I received from James and the team.
OliNick and his team were a pleasure to work with - it was very helpful working with such a great team they lightened the load when it was needed
HelenChuk made the sale of our flat a smooth and efficient process. A true professional, with a friendly manner, who I'd gladly recommend to any friends and family.
Kevin & SallyNick is very personable, gentle, positive, realisitic and more importantly an honest professional estate agent. The communication was regular and informative as they believe that feedback is important. I was also impressed with the staff at the office when I called as they were always pleasant and willing to help
Within weeks our property was sold and we have already moved to our new home due to the help from Nick as he continuously communicated with all parties in the chain
Absolutely great estate agent and would recommend him to my granny(if I had one!)
Thanks Nick, Maartje and all the team
Kevin and Sally
OgoPhilip Mack is a brilliant agent who has in depth local knowledge from living in the Balham area and really has his finger on the markets pulse. He has been able to advise me of the best time to sell and the best price to market for in at in order to maximise my sale price.
CarlosFantastic service! They sold my property in just two weeks. Nick provided great support and advice through the exchanging process that was full of unexpected issues. All the Lauristons team is highly professional. After dealing with at least three different agents, I'll say they are the best option in Putney.
John ProctorAn excellent service, staff were always willing to help.
Hilary LeacockI marketed my property with Lauristons in October last year and in that time I found them very efficient and positive and friendly. James brought round the buyer to whom I have now sold the property and throughout he has been very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I felt that I could ring him at any time and he was always ready to help. I would definitely recommend Lauristons to anybody wishing to sell or purchase a property.
MostafaGreat team at the Wimbledon branch. Initially introduced to the estate agent by Alex who kept me updated with viewings booked in and feedback given back by potential buyers from the viewings. James took over the process, had a viewing booked in with his applicant and an offer placed on the table. We rejected the first offer but James managed to achieve a second offer which was closer to the asking price, so I was happy to accept and proceed with the sale.
OliNick and his team were a pleasure to work with - it was very helpful working with such a great team they lightened the load when it was needed.
Lindsay & AndrewThanks so much for selling our flat! We really appreciate your professionalism and friendliness. We had total confidence in you throughout the process.
Jeremy & RachelAbsolutely fantastic service and always with a smile. Michael and Jonny could not have been more brilliant. We had the flat on the market with two other agents big Battersea estate agents previously who were more than hopeless and useless. Within a week Michael and Jonny had shown a prospective buyer round who put in an offer the next day. A great team and we are so grateful to them. We could not recommend them more highly. A very professional office - every member of staff was lovely on the phone and messages were always passed on. Good luck to you both with future sales - you are fab.
Latimer - WimbledonLauristons dealt with my property as a letting agent for over six years (Susan) and then sold my property (Chuk). Throughout Susan and Chuk (and their colleagues) showed the upmost professionalism. But most important was the way in which they dealt with me on a personal level, I was never a number or client, but someone who they most definitely represented and acted in my best interests. Protecting and maximising the largest asset I had - my property. Thank you!
Roger NolanI dealt with James Wheatley from the point that the buyer was found and the offer price was negotiated and agreed. James was totally professional and on the ball throughout the process.
