About Barons Estate Agents Basingstoke

Barons Estate Agents was formed in 1988 by Kevin Penfold & Trevor Lee, with the office being opened in February of that year. That same office is still open and thriving at Winton Square in Basingstoke. Both directors started their career at large independent estate agencies in the early 1980’s, working their way up the career ladder from trainees, to office managers, and finally regional managers. Along the way gaining extensive knowledge of how to deal with a range of properties, people and the ever-changing legal system. Kevin & Trevor met whilst working at Parkers Independent Estate Agency and developed a great working relationship. Parkers was eventually taken over by Legal & General; keen not to enter the corporate environment and all that goes with it, Kevin & Trevor hatched plans to establish a local independent estate agent that would go the extra mile for their clients. Having undertaken extensive market research, they decided that Basingstoke was the place to be. Starting the agency with themselves and two other employees they hit the ground running by selling their first property in Brighton Hill and haven’t looked back since. Throughout the years they have witnessed ever changing market places, large property developments being built and ever-changing regulations and laws. At Barons Independent Estate Agents, we are passionate about property and pride ourselves on decades of successful selling in Basingstoke and the surrounding villages. Our team of negotiators are approachable, skilful and extremely knowledgeable, boasting over 75 years experience of estate agency in the Basingstoke and surrounding markets. Our unrivalled understanding of the area allows us to find the perfect property for customers, whether they are looking for an elegant Victorian town house or apartment in the town centre, or even a cottage in the Old Basing. We also advise on buy-to-let, investment properties or the purchase of a second home. Our experienced staff, all formally trained by Kevin & Trevor mean those selling through Barons Estate Agents can expect an excellent level of service. As leading residential independent estate agents in the surrounding area, we have a large property portfolio and being registered with us ensures that you will be contacted by telephone, email or text on all new properties that are coming to the market. With a vast depth of local knowledge we are able to guide you to the right areas, good schools, amenities and bus/train services, to name a few. We firmly focus on maximising the exposure of our properties with quality photography, floorplans and high quality brochures in conjunction with prominent advertising on the internet and in local press when necessary. We give regular progress updates, essential proactive sales advice and informative feedback. Our office is highly visible in a prime Basingstoke town centre location, the first port of call for those looking to relocate. We are fully committed to delivering an excellent service to vendors, delicately balanced by our desire to help our purchasers find their ideal property. This continues throughout the conveyancing process, and often beyond! www.baronsestateagents.co.uk

I recently sold my house with Barons, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of professionalism and support I received throughout the entire process. From start to finish, the team was efficient, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to achieving the best possible outcome. A special mention goes to Joanna from Barons, who was absolutely fantastic. She guided me through every step, kept me fully informed, and went above and beyond to make sure everything moved smoothly. Thanks to her persistence and dedication, we got there in the end, and I’m extremely grateful. I also want to highlight the solicitor recommended by Barons, who did a brilliant job. They were thorough, proactive, and incredibly easy to work with, making the legal side of the sale stress-free and straightforward. Overall, I highly recommend Barons to anyone looking to sell their property. Exceptional service from an exceptional team.

We recently purchased a property through Barons and were extremely impressed with their professionalism and streamlined process. Joanne Hammans, in particular, was instrumental in driving the transaction forward. She consistently checked in with every party in the chain, held everyone accountable, and ensured all deliverables were completed on time without delays. Having been through the buying and selling process before, we know how frustrating it can often be. However, Joanne and the Barons team significantly reduced that stress. Their regular updates and transparency made the entire experience far smoother than we anticipated. We moved into our new home, which we absolutely love, remarkably quickly. I highly recommend Barons to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

We have received great service from everyone at Barons who have dealt with the sale of my mother in laws bungalow. We were kept updated at all stages from valuation through to viewings and then following the sale through with minimal stress to us. Thanks to Trevor and the team!

I know Charlie has now left as he helped us by our first place in Basingstoke 5 years ago and last week he came to do a valuation. As a favour even though he 2 days left to work he helped us out and I believe that is what Barons instills in all their staff. So I would recommend them 100% always for local buying and selling!

Although working on behalf of our vendors primarily, we had a lovely experience buying our first home through Barons. The interactions we had when viewing were lovely, totally honest with the houses and not pushy like other estate agents. We saw the same person at multiple viewings and it was lovely as he remembered who we were. Even gave me a wave and said hello when I picked up the keys! When making officers, we spoke with Patrick who was great at communicating through our channel of choice, keeping me up to date with what was happening. Then working with Charlie who was professional throughout and adaptive to give me what I needed, whether that be a kick up the backside or just to reassure me. I went through a lot of personal stress during the purchase which could have lead to disaster but Charlie's professionalism, efficiency and brilliant listening skills saw us through. Barons will definitely be our first point of call when we decide its time to move on!

We were buying a property via Barons & found their company to be professional and efficient. Liam John in the sales department in particular is a true asset to the team. We found Liam’s approach professional, courteous and his friendly manner is lovely & not your typical ‘estate agent’. If we ever need to search or sell a property in the future, then we shall definitely return to Barons, with the hope Liam is still part of the team :) fantastic all around :)
