Brightwells

Established in 1846, Brightwells is a leading provider of auction services, estate agency and chartered surveying, serving customers principally in the UK, but also in Europe, the North Americas and Asia Pacific. Its principal activities include auctions of fine art, vehicles, horses, machinery, agricultural livestock and land; estate agency for residential property sales, residential lettings and farm & land sales; professional services of chartered surveying, including land management, for urban and rural land owners. Brightwells also has an associated insurance division.

In the UK, Brightwells annually serves more than 50 thousand businesses and members of the general public. A new head office and air-conditioned sales centre was recently built at Easters Court, Leominster in 2004 and we hold regular auctions at another eight venues.

Brightwells' strategy is to build long-term partnerships with our customers. With their support, we aim to maximise the potential of our traditional business –through a combination of enhanced quality of service, creative marketing, knowledgeable & experienced professionals and cost efficiency –while pursuing profitable growth by migrating our customers to new ranges of auctions and services such as real-time online auctions and product sourcing. We are also relentlessly working to encourage new customers to take advantage of our quality services and experience.

Farm, Land & Development Property
Bearing in mind our historic links with farming, particularly through our Livestock Markets, it is perhaps not suprising that Brightwells attaches great importance to the sale of all forms of agricultural property. Assessing lotting potential, taxation, the value of the farmhouse and residential interest from perhaps London and the Home Counties all combine to demand a modern and experienced approach. Perhaps equally difficult is the identification of development prospects, be they barn for conversion, plots or large areas of development land. In this new and evermore complex environment we offer individually tailored marketing advice to all our clients.

Residential Sales
Brightwells strive to combine the finest aspects of a good old fashioned service with the very best practices the modern business world has to offer. Our services includes niche marketing, individually tailored brochures, regular feedback, a house finder service, free marketing advice and accompanied viewings. If you need advice on a current market price or need to buy or sell a country house or cottage in Herefordshire, Mid Wales, Worcestershire or Shropshire we are only a phone call away.
