David, who has lived in the area for over 38years, says "We are committed to providing an excellent level of service. Living in Brockham with a young family I know exactly why the Dorking area is such a wonderful place to live and aim to get that across to anyone looking to buy in the area." Jamie, who has been an estate agent for 18 years said, "What makes us stand out from the crowd first and foremost is customer care and always being available. We both love what we do and have a passion for finding a solution." The office is stylish and modern and in planning the design we have incorporated a play area for children to enjoy, plus refreshments are on offer at all times with a warm welcome to everyone. We are proud to say we have raised over £4,500 for Macmillan Cancer Support. We are extremely excited to announce that we will now be working with The Brigitte Trust to try to raise awareness and as much money as possible for this wonderful charity.
