In a challenging marketplace it’s essential for an estate agent to have a high brand profile to attract the best buyers and tenants. This is something we excel at.
Digital know-how
We have been selling homes and land for well over 100 years and are proud of our heritage and traditions. “Jackson-Stops is steeped in history,” says Dean Lonergan, Director, Cornwall. “We’ve stood the test of time, have a great reputation and have always remained true to our core values of authenticity, agility and astuteness, but we’re constantly investing in new ideas and new marketing, to offer a truly customer-centric experience. We’ve always kept up with changes in the way people buy and sell their homes.”
Jackson-Stops was among the first estate agencies to embrace the internet and we have continued to evolve our online presence. This exposure ensures our sellers and landlords receive the greatest market coverage for their properties. As Darrell Hughes, Partner, Dorking, says, “Buyers and tenants can find our properties in a wide variety of online locations. First and foremost, our website is reassuringly easy to navigate and receives thousands of visits a month. This is backed by regular posts on social media channels including Instagram, Facebook, X, Threads and LinkedIn, which give us an audience of over 1 million a month. If that isn’t enough, we also advertise on the leading property portals including Rightmove and OnTheMarket.” Our current brand campaign features on numerous websites including: Country Life, The Telegraph, The Field, Horse & Hound, House & Garden, The Week, Money Week, Decanter, Golf Monthly, Motor Boat & Yachting and Wallpaper.
Print works
We also know the power of print. As well as At Home magazine, we produce Market Review three times a year and advertise regularly in the national press. “Clients like to see that we’re in Country Life, The Sunday Times and The Saturday Telegraph,” says Alastair Hancock, Director, Kent & East Sussex, “this national print exposure complements our digital coverage and national network of offices.” Regular editorial coverage in the press is also of benefit to our clients.
Experts in the saleroom
An increasing number of people are looking at online auctions to buy or sell a property. “An online auction can be a much speedier option than through a more traditional private treaty process,” says Ian Denton, Director, Northampton, “This method is often favoured for probate sales where beneficiaries want a quick sale, and for people who want to move into a new home in a hurry.”
We have an online auction facility on our website and our qualified team of experts is always happy to advise on the most appropriate and effective method of sale.
Capital gains
Are you a landlord in need of an excellent property manager and reliable tenants? Our dedicated Corporate Services department in Mayfair exposes properties to London’s biggest relocation agencies and the best corporate tenants. “Our corporate services team work alongside hundreds of major Blue-Chip companies, often through internal intranet systems where employees choose just to use us to find their next rental.
We are essentially acting as their personal relocation agent,” says Alex McConnell, Director, Pimlico. “We also assist Landlords by taking fees monthly rather than upfront, which ensures cashflow from the start of the tenancy.” Many of our clients have been selling and letting homes through us for many years. “I have had a lot of the same clients since the day I started,” says Alex, “people who had been with Jackson-Stops for a long time before I joined eight years ago.” Our staff are like a family and many stay with us for a long time. Harry Buchanan, who works alongside Alex handling sales in Pimlico and Westminster has been with the company for over 20 years.
The personal touch
We’ve never forgotten that nothing beats the personal touch in the world of estate agency and we work hard to provide the highest level of personal service to our clients. A service that is consistently rated as ‘excellent’ with a score of 4.8 out of 5 on Trustpilot.
