INDEPENDENT FAMILY RUN ESTATE AGENCY
  • paragraph

    In 2008, amidst the global financial crisis, Josh Godfrey saw a gap in the market for a fresh and innovative estate agency and subsequently Oakwood Estates was formed - initially working out of his fathers garage in Latchmoor Way, Gerrards Cross.

    His brother, Edward Godfrey, joined forces with him in 2010 and over the years the multi-award winning business has grown into a network of 8 High St branches located across Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Middlesex and employing in excess of 45 staff.

    Both the brothers are passionate about providing a 5-star experience and have always taken a hands-on approach being involved with everything from viewings to valuations and, finally, handing you the key to your new home.

    Our success over the last decade has been down to the quality of individuals which the company has employed. We encourage everyone to feel a part of the business and take ownership of their sector. Our teams operate with work mobiles and are always contactable and on hand to assist. Their passion is evident in the way that they go above and beyond to make sure the levels of service are unrivalled - as is testament to the volume of 5* reviews the business has generated.

    At Oakwood Estates, we treat every client and applicant as an individual rather than a number which allows us to fully understand your needs.

    Life is a story of lots of different journeys - let us be part of yours.
