It’s Official: We’re the Number One Estate Agent in the ST5 Area

We’ve always believed that Heywoods is the leading estate agent in the ST5 area, and thanks to a recent report by TwentyEA, we now have the facts to back it up.

The report, from the end of October 2023, publishes the statistics on estate agents in our area over the last 12 months. It shows the number of properties sold, how fast they were sold, and how much of the asking price the seller was able to get. We were very pleased to see Heywoods ranking #1.
