Location spotlight
Watch this 3 minute video produced by our in house professional photography & digital marketing team showcasing why we love Canterbury, Kent from historical landmarks to culture, entertainment, shopping and picturesque sights.
Sandersons UK have been established in Canterbury, Kent for 30 years and are still under the same independent ownership. So we have got to know the area extremely well over the years. In that time we have also got to know the property market even better!
We have established long term relationships with our landlords and landladies managing buy to let properties and working with them to seek new investment opportunities to expand their portfolio's while maximise returns. Our attentive management style results in well maintained properties, tight credit control and trusting relationships which encourages tenants to stay longer. These relationships overlap with our Block and Estate Management services offering tailored packages to suit the level of involvement our clients require from us.
For sales, we specialise in both resale and land & new homes with dedicated teams for both as they each require a slightly different approach and level of expertise. The attention to detail we place on our marketing with a skilled in house team (as demonstrated in our Canterbury showcase) makes us the agent of choice for vendors and developers looking to sell their property and accentuate the best features to prospective buyers. What happens after a sale is agreed is often overlooked but we know it is just as critical as getting the marketing right. It is for this reason we have a dedicated in house progression team driving the transactions forward, problem solving, keeping all legal, financial, buyer and vendor parties updated to result in a successful exchange and completion. As a result, our average timescales from sale agreed to completion are 10 - 15% faster than the current industry average.
Don't just take our word for it...
We are proud to share that our Canterbury team have won multiple awards this year. Both awards are based on independent nationwide industry studies of all estate agents (approx 25,000) who are automatically entered. The British Property Awards presented us with a Gold award as the winner of the best estate agent in Canterbury.
We were also awarded the Best Estate Agent Guide for 2022 (our 4th consecutive year winning this award) after they assessed over 3 billion data points and ranked us in the top 5% of all agents in the UK based on customer service, marketing and results.
