Surrey Buying Agents

Surrey Buying Agents know Surrey. We live here, work here and have raised a family here. Our knowledge of the Surrey property market is unsurpassed.

Surrey is a Home County to the southwestern edge of London that borders Kent, East Sussex and West Sussex to the south, Hampshire to the west and Berkshire to the north.

Being one of the most prosperous counties in the UK, Surrey is a hot spot for affluent residents who commute to London but would like more space and access around them.

Quick guide to Surrey

Surrey is well connected with the rest of the UK and the world, with two international airports, London Heathrow and London Gatwick, within easy reach. The private airports of Farnborough and Biggin Hill and both easily accessible too.

This makes Surrey an incredibly popular county and therefore Surrey Buying Agents are extremely important to ensure that all market opportunities are available to you including the myriad of off-market, hidden opportunities, not available without the right connections.

The London ring road motorway, the M25, provides quick access to all other arterial roads. To the west, the A3 from central London leads to destinations as far as Portsmouth, skirting past Oxshott, Cobham, Esher, Weybridge, Guildford, Godalming and Haslemere.

The M3 goes to Southampton with the A303 leading off it, providing access to the west country for Devon and Cornwall. To the south, the A24 goes through the stunning Box Hill area, past Dorking on its way to Worthing, whilst the M23 goes to Brighton, passing London Gatwick. The A22 passes East Grinstead on the way to Eastbourne.

The capital of Surrey is Guildford, with its stunning high street, many shops, and cobbled streets. Guildford enjoys a wealth of restaurants, shops, a bustling theatre, cinema and other such activities. The architecture ranges from stunning period buildings to modern office blocks and developments, and the passing River Wey provides a relaxing journey along the water.

Surrey has an extraordinary wealth of good schools, including the well-known Charterhouse in Godalming, Cranleigh School in beautiful Cranleigh, Epsom College and St. John’s School, Leatherhead.

Other schools include the City of London Freemans, Reeds School, The American Community School (ACS Community School), the last two both in Cobham and many more. Being active on the sports sidelines with my youngest son, I noticed that even Eton College plays in the Surrey school’s rugby 7’s.

As for the surrounding countryside and stunning views, Surrey has some of the best. With the Surrey Hills offering some of the most stunning walks in the UK, with views stretching for miles, it is hard to believe that this is only 30 minutes to an hour from central London. I have friends living in Fulham who take longer to get into the city than my friends in Guildford!

Surrey hosts some of the world’s most prestigious annual events, with Epsom and Sandown racecourses and Goodwood just outside the border. With world-renowned spectacular gardens such as RHS Wisley, Surrey is simply a world-beater.

Off market property in Surrey

Off-market properties, also known as “pocket listings” or “hidden properties, ” are homes or properties for sale but not listed publicly on property portals or other estate websites. This means that they are not actively advertised to the general public, making them a more exclusive option for those looking to buy or invest in property in the UK.

In the UK, the majority of property transactions occur through estate agents. These agents act as intermediaries between buyers and sellers, and many have knowledge of off-market (hidden) properties. This is because the owners of these properties often choose not to list them publicly to keep their sales discreet and avoid attracting unwanted attention.

This knowledge is only shared with a trusted and select few, including the best connected Surrey Buying Agents.

They will often prefer a private sale, as should their property not sell, it doesn’t leave a ‘digital footprint’ affecting the marketing of their house later in the year when they do go public.

In Surrey, there are an extraordinary amount of private estates and wealthy owners where discretion is the most vital component to any agreed sale. Without Surrey Buying Agents with deep connections within the property world and trusted by other agents, and who receives early notification of a possible interest in selling, the chances of bagging the best homes is remote, if not impossible.
