The old ‘shop window’ is no longer needed and buyers are not waiting for the local newspaper to arrive on a Thursday. Committed buyers have telephone and email alerts to flag up new properties to market the moment they appear online and simply click a link to learn more and book a viewing”. As more people work from home, it’s not unusual for estate agents to operate away from the High st...we ourselves have a ‘Hub’ office in Cirencester.

With this in mind, we have redefined the way that our clients instruct us, by developing a unique marketing package that suit all needs. adkinspropertygroup.co.uk FLOOR PLANS We will create individual floor plans for each property to allow buyers to visualise the layout of your hom and envisage how they would live there. adkinspropertygroup.co.uk OUR GUIDE TO SELLING - 'POST COVID-19 LOCKDOWN' With strong local knowledge and connections, no detail is overlooked.

We will let you know immediately and negotiate on your behalf to reach a price that is acceptable to you. We will always give you an honest recommendation on each offer received.
