Estate agents in Ilkley

Thinking of selling your business?

Here at Alan J Picken’s, using our 40 years’ experience in business transfer, we know exactly what it takes to sell your business. We are a family run business, renowned for

offering a personal and professional service- we are an established brand that you can trust.

No hidden costs

We do not take a business on to sell unless we believe we can sell it. Some agents will take on businesses at an over-inflated valuation just to charge their hidden advertising fees or exit fees when the business inevitably does

not sell. With our 40 years’ experience of valuing and selling businesses, our valuations are at the level that we

believe the business will sell for and not an over-inflated figure to entice you. We don’t believe in hidden exit fees

or advertising costs, here at Alan J Picken we are committed to being open and transparent when it comes to

commission and advertising fees

Maximum exposure

We will market your business extensively across all the major business for sale websites, ensuring your business

is seen by thousands of active buyers in just a matter of days. As well as our extensive database of buyer’s that

we have on file.

Competitive fees

We are a family run business and are able to offer some of the most competitive rates in the industry. We are

able to do this as we do not subcontract out to expensive sales reps, the member of our team who carried out

your initial valuation will be on hand to guide you through the sale process.

Confidentiality

We know selling your business can be stressful and you may not want your customers or staff to find out. Here at

Alan J Picken we can tailor our marketing to ensure your business is kept discreet and confidential.

Specialist Solicitors

We have excellent relationships with many solicitors who specialize in business transfer, some of whom we have

dealt with for over 40 years.

The team at Tranmer White came together as colleagues over the last decade with a common purpose - excellence in estate agency. We achieve this by getting to know you on a personal level, understanding your needs and motivations while also providing you with clear and honest advice.

Collectively the five directors, Ed Tranmer, Becky White, Tracy Wardman, Bill Dale and William Eddison have almost 140 years relevant experience in the local property market. In that time, we have learnt to appreciate that every move is different and a 'one size fits all' approach simply doesn't work.

Through a combination of investment in the latest technology as well as tried and tested methods, we have developed a reputation for outstanding customer service.

Welcome to personal, tailored, good old-fashioned service. We launched Whitaker Cadre with a radically different approach to lettings and property management: we care. And it comes through in everything we do. We’re proudly independent and truly local (our team has over 20 years of combined experience within the Wharfe Valley and surrounding areas.…so we know a thing or two).

We sit down with you and just listen. To who you are and what you want. Whether you’re looking for someone to look after your portfolio, or for a smarter place to rent. We take the time to get to know you and your circumstances, so we can suggest the right solution.

Get used to a high level of service. Call us for a meeting and we’ll put the kettle on.

Whitaker Cadre – for people who like people.
