Our longstanding success in
Estate Agency is a tribute to the hard work and professionalism
we have always brought to the property business.
Bairstow Eves London (North) have earned a reputation
for getting results, as well as the satisfaction and
recommendation of generations of local people.
‘Local’ originally meant ‘Metropolitan
Essex’. The founders of the original practice
were Mr Charles Eves, who commenced business at Goodmayes,
Essex in 1899, and Mr Stanly Bairstow, who set up office
in Ilford from 1926.
In 1953, the two practices amalgamated under the name
of Bairstow Eves & Son and opened their first sales
office in Brentwood in 1956.
The emphasis they put on client service and convenience
is evident in the partners’ early advertising.
In the Ilford official guide for 1934, Mr Bairstow
promises his clients ‘speedy sales of properties
offered at Market Prices Assured’. At the same
time in the local paper, Eves Auction Mart (Cash Advance
if Desired) advertises such bargains as a ‘substantial
residence, close to trams, 3 bedrooms, 2 reception rooms,
2 wc’s, electric and gas for an unmissable £190
freehold!
Naturally, we cannot match such prices today!
Over the years, our expansion from a single office
to a network of more than 700 associated offices nationwide
has equipped us to serve our clients even more effectively.
It enables us to offer wider and better sales coverage,
which in turn attracts more and better offers from potential
purchasers.It also gives us an intimate knowledge of
property values, availability and demand throughout
the area, invaluable intelligence for buyers and sellers.
Few other local agents have offered so much for so
long!
