Sales

Selling

We understand that in most instances when selling your property we are actually selling your home and all that it means to you. We also understand that moving can seem complicated, confusing and stressful.

We have very high levels of experience in our teams and it is rare that we come across situations that we have not dealt with successfully on many previous occasions. We really do know what we are doing! We know how to achieve the best results, we deliver the best service that we can, and most importantly we want to look after you and help matters to run as smoothly as possible.

Experience counts. We are proud of the levels of business that we carry out through recommendation. We are often instructed to act as a direct recommendation from previous buyers and sellers. We also have many previous customers and who would be happy to talk to you about the service that they have received from us.

We do not charge any ‘up front’ fees and there are no hidden fees. We charge just one fee that is paid by your Solicitors from the proceeds of your sale once you have moved.

We operate on a ‘no sale, no fee’ basis. There are no charges to remove your property from the market if you change your mind or circumstances change.

Buying

Buying a property is a huge commitment as we all know and the biggest investment many of us make. Getting it right is so important. We can help you in your search, make all arrangements and of course draw on our knowledge and experience to advise you carefully. We will manage your purchase right through to you moving in, making matters as smooth as possible. Make our experience count for you. We can help you in so many ways, not just helping in your search for a new home.

We recommend from a small panel of trusted Solicitors that we have worked with for several years. We can, of course, arrange quotes for you. Choosing the right legal help cannot be left to chance.

We can offer you the services of an Independent Financial Advisor to help organise a great mortgage. The advise is free to all our customers.

We can also help you arrange a survey on a purchase if you wish; we work closely with a very experienced local companies and quotes can be organised for you.

We detail all matters regarding our service and charges in writing in our Service Agreement so that it is clear what our responsibilities are and all the costs involved. All matters will be totally transparent.

Reviews

Ian Benn dealt with most of the sale of my Mum’s house in West Ewell. He was very helpful and knowledgable. He gave us good guidance on various selling issues. He also helped us find good local tradesmen to fix different problems and willingly attended the property when we were unable to do so. Other members of staff were all similarly excellent. Nicholls residential - highly recommended. Mrs D Seabrook 29/08/2024
Georgia and Ian was truly exceptional. I met them when buying our first property. I was impressed with their level of knowledge and helping us through the all process. To summarize – both of them made us feel like friends and they made the whole process feel easy. Very Grateful Juliana & Luciano Mrs J De Lima 16/08/2024
Thank you to all at Nicholls who have been so professional and supportive over the last few months. They found us a buyer and helped us navigate the process leading to completion. I know it was a team effort but special thanks to Georgia who kept us informed of how things were progressing with weekly phone calls. Mrs P Hilliam 09/08/2024
Having just moved into a rental property, I just wanted to say how incredibly helpful Tony from your Epsom branch has been. He made what could have been a stressful experience, simple and as streamlined as possible. Tony clearly understood my needs and presented some excellent properties. Compared to the other local Agents I signed up with, Nicholls - and Tony in particular - provided a level of customer service that was on another level. Mr C Barton 04/08/2024
I cannot rate them high enough, I have had experience of many agents and they truly are the best. Mrs A Redout 02/08/2024
Nicholls Residential are well deserved to get 10 out of 10. They just brilliant. There Agents are available whenever needed and they will get answers ASAP. I am a first time buyer my success fulfilled by their diligent help. Thank you so much Mr S Bolakee 26/04/2024
Nicholls Residential started marketing my house in November and were quick to organise viewings. They always confirmed them by email and followed them up with feedback each time usually within 48 hours. Through them, and in particular Michael, we received an acceptable offer on our house. Throughout the time we have been registered with them they have been reliable, professional and honest. They gave us a weekly marketing report as to how our house was performing with regard to numbers of viewers and always rang us each week to keep us in touch with what was happening. We were delighted when they sold our house after all the hard work they put into selling it. Thank you Mrs P Hilliam 12/04/2024
Paul and the team are the best in the business!! Their patience, professionalism, quality of advice, attention to detail and customer service are unparalleled in the business. From the moment of instructing them, I was impressed by Paul, whose manner and approach was way ahead of the competition. He also directed and managed the sale of the house and did so with expertise and a high level of efficiency. He also chased everything up relentlessly and gave me daily information on the progress of the sale, keeping the chain tight at all times. I recommend Nicholls without reservation and extremely highly, you won't find any better. 5 star service and staff at Nicholls in North Cheam! Mr S Batterbury 22/03/2024
Having not sold a property for over 30 years, I was very uncertain of what to expect. Jacqueline and Paul made the process go as smoothly as possible, always there to speak to, always answering queries in a professional, calm and in timely manner, in fact contact was weekly with progress updates. I would say they went over and above expectations, and delivered a service they should be proud of. I would thoroughly recommend Nicholls Residential if you are considering selling your property. Mrs A Sherrington - Gill 20/03/2024
I am very pleased with the service that Nicholls Residential provided us in our sale and purchase. Their communication was excellent, their staff are kind & caring, they were quick to respond to our queries, and they were on our side throughout the process. Highly recommended! Mr B Daniel 07/03/2024
We must commend Michael for his expertise and professionalism. A brilliant personable agent who has been an absolute pleasure to work with. Miss Y Dehghani 24/02/2024
Just rented our flat with NR and couldn't be happier. The whole team looks after you from start to finish. There is a genuine desire to help which is refreshing. Very professional company to work with and we couldn't be happier with our decision to use them following a chance encounter with Michael. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone wanting to rent a property. Many thanks to the whole team, Will & Carolina. Mr W Coleman 17/02/2024
Nicholls were very good at letting us into the property several times before the purchase and the bunch of flowers was a very nice surprise. (Sorry for the spoiler!) Mr B Woodcraft 16/02/2024
Great service, great communication, kept us fully updated along the way, would have no hesitation to recommend them. Having dealing with several agents over the years, I employed these with a very open mind, At the end of the day, I was overall somewhat impressed with there service. Thank you Nicholls Residential for the stress free sale. Mr R Finch 10/02/2024
I wouldn't hesitate to use Nicholls Residential again for selling a property. I have had much experience of estate agents recently, but they stood out because of their professionalism, friendliness and their approachability. I felt they really cared! Thank you so much Ian, Simon and John! Ms A Benatre 09/02/2024
