Talk to me directly.

Most people put off ringing an agent because they think the house is about to be judged. The kitchen’s dated, the carpets need doing, the decoration’s tired. Almost every buyer intends to change something anyway — what they’re looking for is a house they can make their own. Yours doesn’t need to be ready for us to have a conversation.

I read every message myself, and I reply as soon as I can — every day of the week.

What happens next

  1. You send a few details

    Four boxes, and none of them are difficult. If you’d rather just ring, the number’s above.

  2. I read it myself

    Not an assistant, not a call centre. If it’s a quick question you’ll get a quick answer.

  3. We have a proper conversation

    At the house, on the phone, or over a coffee. No obligation at the end of it, and no follow-up unless you want one.

A few details to start

I’ll read this myself and come back to you as soon as I can.

Common questions

Do I have to be ready to sell before I get in touch?

No. A good number of the conversations I have are with people a year or more away from moving, and those are often the most useful ones — there’s time to do the things that make a difference. If you’re only thinking about it, that’s a fine reason to call.

Will I be passed to someone else?

No. Vine Estates is one person. You’ll deal with me from the first conversation through to the day the keys change hands, including every viewing.

What does a first appraisal cost?

Nothing, and it commits you to nothing. What you get is a figure with the evidence behind it — recent comparable sales, current demand, and what’s specific to your house — plus an honest view on timing.
