THE "LACEYS" DIFFERENCE - established in 1981

There's certainly a lot of choice when it comes to picking an estate agent to act for you. From online-only firms, to the corporate giants and everything in between. If you choose Laceys to market your home, for sale or to let, you can be assured that you are dealing with 100% genuine "local property experts" who have truly unbeatable local knowledge and vast experience.

The firm is a family-run affair, but with the peace of mind that comes with being "Regulated by RICS" (the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors). We like to be up-front about what we charge you, with no hidden costs, making our fees transparent and very competitive. More than anything though, we are on hand to guide you through your sales or lettings transaction with our friendly and refreshingly professional approach. No call centres, no flannel, no hassle. We're great at what we do, and what's more we do it with a smile!

SALES SERVICE

Most people employ us on a "Sole Agency" basis, which means you choose one agent to act for you at a time. Unlike most of our online-only competitors we always act on a "No Sale - No Fee" basis, giving you total peace of mind. We also offer FREE valuations, Rightmove and other major portal listings, accompanied viewings, professional photography from £85 and at no upfront cost to you, FREE glossy brochures with FREE floorplans and FREE location maps. Plus the benefits of a large regional town centre shop-front (you'd be amazed how many customers visit us face-to-face!), and a 24/7 Touch-Screen Display - think giant iPad!

LETTINGS SERVICE

Laceys commenced a Lettings service in 1985 and have a dedicated department managing a residential portfolio of over 400 properties, making us one of the largest and most successful privately owned letting agents in the area.

David MacLauchlan BSc (Hons) MRICS, a Chartered Surveyor, is actively involved in the day to day running of the office and employs an experienced lettings team who will provide you with the level of knowledge and experience you expect when placing your investment in the hands of someone else.

We provide a comprehensive letting and management service for all landlords and investors. By focusing our services in just the local area, including Yeovil and the surrounding villages we can offer you unparalleled knowledge of our business in our immediate area and advise you accordingly. Whether you have one property to let or a portfolio of properties, whether you are a seasoned landlord or are doing it for the first time, we welcome the opportunity to extend our service to you. Whatever your needs as a landlord we can accommodate them.

We offer two core levels of service; the full property management service and the tenant find only service. If you require a variation on either of these services we would be happy to tailor a package to suit you.
