Mathew made the whole process of selling very easy. Importantly he communicated well and regularly throughout the process so we were always aware of interest in our property. He gave us realistic advice on what our property would fetch in the market and obtained the price we were hoping for.

Renata & Emma C

Matt (assisted by Sarah) recently sold our townhouse and we had an amazing experience with both agents. Matt gave us some advice on presentation and did a great campaign for us (highlight being the video!). We believe this translated to a successful sale prior to auction at a great price (following his expert negotiating!). Matt is a popular agent in our area but he promised us an exceptional service and we got it! He was also responsive and put us at ease throughout the process. Thanks Matt!

We approach appraisals as a practical conversations, grounded in real data, local insight and what matters most to you.

Speak to us

Your Buxton agent visits your property, considers its features, location, and market conditions, and combines that with recent sales data to give you a clear, realistic view of its value.
