Why Buchanan Mitchell? Buchanan Mitchell bring something new to the residential sales market. We believe there is a need for a more tailored, bespoke approach to selling houses. Buchanan Mitchell differ from other agents in that we have chosen to manage a smaller portfolio of properties. This enables us to customise our service to meet your needs and invest the time required to ensure that we exceed your expectations. We are available to you whenever you need us. Our client testimonials demonstrate our commitment to providing the highest levels of service. Deborah Mitchell and Georgina Buchanan have over 30 years combined experience in the residential property market. In recent years we have seen significant changes in the dynamics of the housing market and see a real opportunity for a bespoke client focused agency that blends the latest technology with unrivalled levels of client service. “The time was right to set up an estate agency with a difference, rather than attempt to bring the more established agencies kicking and screaming into the 21st century” says Georgina Buchanan. Deborah Mitchell adds “We saw that in a challenging market traditional agencies continue to run large overheads supporting an out of date business model, paying premium rents for prime locations on the High Street and resulting in high operating costs that are unsustainable and can only be maintained through charging inequitable fee structures. We want our clients to pay for our skills and expertise in selling rather than an ability to decorate an expensive showroom. ” We don’t just want to be different; the market was demanding it, and we knew we could deliver. Bringing the finest properties to market and recognising the time pressures of our clients, we utilise state of the art technology, together with an energetic, dedicated and proactive approach. We work tirelessly throughout the buying and selling process and beyond to make deals happen for our clients in these challenging markets.
