Three Keel District homes are open on Saturday morning — no appointment needed.

I handle a small number of properties at a time — brick terraces, garden flats and top-floor conversions — so every viewing is led by the person who wrote the listing. Current stock, real viewing times and honest notes on what each home is actually like are all below.
Available now
Guide prices are the figure I would advise offering around, not a headline. Each note is what I would tell a friend about the home after standing in it.
Open Saturday
Guide price 385,000
The shared garden is maintained by the freeholder, and the kitchen keeps its light until late afternoon. Street parking is unrestricted at weekends.

Original floorboards on the first floor and a rear extension that has already been signed off. The loft is boarded but not converted — there is room to.

Chain-free, with the boiler replaced two winters ago. The third bedroom is a genuine single rather than a study, and there is a side return for bikes.

Under offer
Guide price 264,000
An offer is accepted but not yet exchanged, so second viewings are still worth booking. Two flights of stairs and no lift — worth knowing before you travel.

Sellers pay one agreed percentage of the sale price, invoiced on completion and set out in writing before the listing goes live. Photography, floor plans and the energy certificate are included. Buyers pay me nothing.
Field notes
I have worked these four postcodes for eleven years, first valuing for a larger firm and now on my own. That means I keep a deliberately short list: enough homes to be busy, few enough that I can answer a question about any of them without opening a file.
Sellers get one point of contact from valuation to completion, a written pricing rationale rather than a flattering number, and feedback after every viewing — including the unhelpful feedback. Buyers get told about the boiler, the neighbours' extension plans and the drains.
Selling, step by step
Most of the anxiety in a sale comes from not knowing what happens next. This is the order, and who is waiting on whom at each point.
I walk the house, note what adds and what costs value, and follow up in writing with a price range and the comparable sales behind it.
Photography, floor plan and energy certificate are arranged together, usually in one morning. You approve every line of the description before it appears.
I accompany every viewing and send you what was said within the day, grouped so you can see whether the objection is the price or the property.
Offers come to you with the buyer's position: funding, chain and timescale. Once you accept, I verify their finance before the listing changes status.
Solicitors handle searches, enquiries and the survey while I chase both sides weekly, then confirm the completion date and hand the keys over.
Choose a starting point
Three different conversations, three different first steps. Pick the column that sounds like your situation and mention it in the enquiry.
| Aspect | Selling | Buying | Letting |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Owners who want one named agent rather than a rota of negotiators. | Buyers who want to be told the drawbacks before they book a survey. | Landlords with one or two homes who would rather not self-manage. |
| What I do | Price it, market it, accompany every viewing, and hold the chain together. | Flag new stock early, arrange second viewings, and put your offer in context. | Reference tenants, draw up the agreement, and handle the inventory. |
| First step | A valuation visit, with written comparables afterwards. | Tell me your budget, must-haves and earliest move date. | A rental appraisal and a compliance check on the property. |
| Usual rhythm | Listing live within the week; offers reviewed as they arrive. | Alerts as homes come up; searches and survey after acceptance. | Marketed once compliant; renewals reviewed ahead of each term. |
Before you enquire
The seven things people ask me most often, answered the way I would answer them on the phone.
Not for a first viewing. You will need one before I can put an offer to a seller, because the first question any owner asks is whether the buyer can actually complete. If you do not have one yet, come to the viewing anyway and sort it in parallel.
I confirm the agreed figure in writing to both sides, ask for your solicitor's details and your proof of funds, then the listing moves to under offer. Your solicitor orders searches while the seller's side prepares the contract pack. Nothing is binding until exchange.
You pay one agreed percentage of the final sale price, invoiced on completion, plus your own legal costs. Photography, the floor plan, the energy certificate and portal advertising are included in my fee. There is nothing to pay if the house does not sell.
I start from completed sales of genuinely similar homes on similar streets, adjust for condition, floor area and outside space, then sanity-check against what is currently competing with you. You get the reasoning in writing, including the range I think is realistic.
Yes. Evening slots run until 19:30 from Tuesday to Thursday and Saturday mornings are usually open house. Sunday viewings are possible where the owner is comfortable with it — ask and I will check with them the same day.
Most flats in the district are leasehold, which means a ground rent, a service charge and a lease length that lenders care about. Houses are almost always freehold. For any leasehold home I will tell you the remaining term and the current charges before you spend money on a survey.
Proof of ownership and identity, any building regulation or planning paperwork for past work, warranties for a newer boiler or roof, and — for leasehold — your lease and recent service charge statements. Gathering these early prevents the delay that most often loses a buyer.
Start here
One short form for both. Tell me which home you want to see, or that you are thinking of selling, and I will reply with times that work — including evenings.
If you are already in a chain and simply want a second opinion on where it has stalled, say so in the message. That conversation is free and usually short.
