West of Exe

General information

We’ve received many words of encouragement since we started, and are now firmly established as one of the leading estate agents in the area. As a way of introduction we’ve put together some answers to some of the frequently asked questions asked of us.....

Who are you?
We are a successful, independently owned estate agency run by a team of enthusiastic professionals who love what they do. Based in Topsham, just outside of Exeter, we specialise in sales and lettings throughout the Exeter and East Devon area.

Why should I trust you to sell or let my home?
Our business is based on reputation and as specialists in the East Devon area, concentrating solely on this area, we are 100% committed to achieving the best price or rental possible for our clients. All of our sole agency instructions will benefit from regular newspaper advertising, prominent listing on all the key internet portals and Feature Property on East of Exe dedicated web site. If you really want to find out why people use us, ask to see our recent references we have from past vendors and landlords.

What makes you different?
An agent is in the business of selling and letting property and in order to succeed at that you must stand out. If our fresh and simple ideas, such as our customer service approach, dedicated location pages on our web site, 3D colour floor plans and even our grey and orange branded mini can make such an immediate impact, just think what we can do for the sale or letting of your home. As independent business we will work tirelessly to achieve the best results.

How can you specialise in lettings & sales?
We have dedicated teams for both sales and lettings, so you can be assured of specialised knowledge from the individuals you deal with. We are one of the leading rental companies in the area (following the purchase of Paul Property Services in 2011) as well as one of the fastest growing sales agency's in the SW.

Will I be tied in to a restrictive contract?
Yes, but not for long. Our ‘East of Exe Agency Agreement’ is for just a 4 week period, substantially less than our competitors. We are committed to our business and want our clients to stay with us because they want to, not because they have to.

What rate of commission do you charge?
Because we don’t have the expensive overheads associated with a larger agency, we offer very competitive rates of commission or fees which will be agreed with you at the outset.

Which locations in East Devon do you cover?
Our main areas of business are Topsham, Woodbury, Exton, Lympstone, Exmouth, Budleigh Salterton, Clyst St George and Clyst St Mary, but we also have extensive knowledge of Exeter and the towns, villages and hamlets further into East Devon.

My home is not in East Devon but I really like the sound of your service?
East of Exe is our specialist area and where we believe we can use our knowledge to add real value. We are rapidly spreading our approach to other areas in Devon and would be happy therefore to discuss your requirements.

What is your relationship with Estuary League of friends?
We feel very lucky to live and work in this area, and have decided as business to put something back into the community. To that end we have signed a unique agreement with one of the leading local charities, where we contribute a % of our fees for every sale we are involved in.

How do I contact you?
You can contact us by phone and email or visit us at our offices in Topsham.
