Farm, Land & Estate Sales
Selling an estate, farm or bare land can be an exciting process. But estate sales can also be stressful and even overwhelming – especially if you’re parting with a property you’ve owned or lived in for years.
That’s where having a partner you can truly trust makes such a difference.
In estate sales management, the reassurance that comes from instructing a respected firm counts for everything. When you need advice, you want to be secure in the knowledge that you are speaking with an expert in their field. You want to deal with individuals who you are happy to have on the end of the phone when you need them. And you want a team that you can trust will go that extra mile for you – in the professionalism of their marketing, in the quality of their communications, and in the hours that they spend finding the right buyer and achieving the best possible result for you.
That is precisely why our clients put their trust in Carter Jonas. And it’s why they continue to do so, time and time again, often recommending us to family and friends who also need an expert in estate sales. It’s the reason why 80% of our business is from repeat customers. And it’s why our first ever estate-owning client is still with us after more than 160 years.
Purchasing Land
Carter Jonas also acts for many high-profile individuals who value the advice and discretion that our buying service provides. With our ears close to the ground, we often buy land and property off-market and keep a sharp eye on the purchase right up to completion. During the transaction we can call on the expertise of our architecture, planning or development teams, and in the longer term, if you are looking for a team to manage the property for you, we can do that as well. Whichever route we follow, it is always conducted with the sole aim of achieving the best possible outcome for you.
