At least three-quarters of purchasers begin their property search on line and so our website and other property portals are vital in exposing your property to a wide audience. Our website www.johnkingston.co.uk is constantly up-dated with properties for sale, area profiles, market intelligence and general advice. All our properties are also up-dated to www.rightmove.co.uk, www.primelocation.co.uk and www.zoopla.co.uk . As soon as a property is listed email alerts are transmitted to the buyers on our database and telephone contact made.
Trusted Service with Results
Anyone can become an estate agent but not all agents like being answerable to a professional body. Professional credentials are therefore an important indicator of an ongoing willingness to perform to accepted industry standards. We set ourselves very high standards and as members of the National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA) and the Ombudsman for Estate Agents (OEA) scheme, we abide by a recognised code of practice. This is your guarantee that we are a reputable and respected agent.
