Agency
We ensure your property is exposed to the widest marketplace possible through use of key websites, direct mailings and via our network of contacts.
We generate and manage all enquiries, conduct viewings, handle negotiations and provide recommendations to you, before agreeing heads of terms and liaising with your Solicitor to conclude missives, while keeping you informed throughout every stage of the process.

Smart & Co has extensive experience of handling Rating Appeals for all types of property and with a proven and demonstrable track record of winning, we are extremely well placed to advise you on the likelihood of securing savings from your rating assessment.
