A beautiful market town surrounded by picturesque rural villages in the glorious South Downs National Park Welcome to “our patch”.

Catch up with the team... Click on us to email us or call us on 01730 233333 for a chat. Colin Williams Owner/Managing Director I have lived here for more than 30 years and worked in estate agency since I was 19 years old, so I really am living my best life! It makes me so happy to see everyone working smoothly and confidently in their assigned roles, like a well-oiled machine. Best advice: work with experts. If you think professionals are expensive, wait until you see how much working with amateurs costs you!
Richard Doubtfire Finance Director I’ve lived in Haslemere since 1985 and my career path has seen me move from financial services to accounting. I now manage all aspects of the company’s accounts while supporting the front office team. Best feedback: we are problem solvers. A landlord came to us in desperation due to problems with a tenant. We spoke to the tenant and resolved matters without going through the courts and to everyone’s satisfaction.
Julie Mantakis Branch Manager I’ve lived in Horndean all my life. I used to be a management accountant for a manufacturing company then went to work for a lettings agency and discovered my passion for property. Now I am using all my skills in an industry I love, so I am doubly blessed. Best feedback I have heard about the Williams of Petersfield team – so far! – is how amazing we all are at communicating.
Juliet Storey Sales Consultant I have lived locally nearly my whole life and have worked in property for over 15 years. I really can’t see myself doing anything else. You can’t beat the satisfaction of doing a job well and seeing how happy people are when you hand them the keys to their new home! Best advice I can give is to choose an agent you connect with. If I were a biscuit, I would be a Jammie dodger – they are reassuring and familiar on the outside with something a little more interesting on the inside!
over a coffee. Emma Kis Property Manager I have lived in Petersfield for over 20 years, 15 of which have been in the property industry. I really enjoy building good relationships between Landlords and tenants – every day brings a new challenge which I love! My years of experience mean I can usually spot an issue and resolve it efficiently before if becomes a problem. My best advise: Choose an agent that is knowledgeable. My Biscuit? I would be a Viennese Whirl – smooth and calm with a little sweetness!
Jenny Thomas Sales Consultant I have lived locally for over 18 years and my background is in the car sales industry. To me, there is no greater pleasure than giving great customer service, as people remember you for all the right reasons! I wanted to work for Williams of Petersfield as they have a great reputation for being amazing people! My best advise: pick an agent who you feel at ease with. I were a biscuit, I would be a ginger nut as I’m a little sassy but you know what you are getting!
Declan Pawsey Lettings Consultant I live in Petersfield on the Herne Farm Estate and love it here. I never tire of seeing happy tenants collecting the keys for their new homes, it can be a rather emotional and sometimes life changing moment. Best advice I can give anyone is to focus on quality of service when choosing your agent, solicitor, surveyor, whoever. When a job is done well it makes your life so much easier!
Jonathan Peachey Mortgage Advisor I’ve lived in this area for 48 years and worked in financial services my entire career. I enjoy working closely with everyone here to help our clients get the properties they want and make a point of always doing what I say I’m going to do, which is so important in a tight-knit team. If I were a biscuit I would be a Hobnob because they represent great value.

and we love receiving customer feedback. We’re overjoyed when customers tell us that we’ve done a great job, because that’s the goal we set for ourselves, every day of the week. “An extremely professional, friendly and efficient service – which was all the more impressive bearing in mind the delays and obstacles caused by the Covid crisis. Communication was excellent throughout and I would definitely use them again.” T Upfold “Professional at all times, always at the end of the phone, kept us up to date throughout the selling process and most importantly realistic regarding timeframes and valuation. Such a great team. Highly recommended.” R Thomas “Absolutely cannot fault the service and would highly recommend them. A friendly team of staff who are professional and fair. I have used them to sell a property, rent a property and manage a property and they have been proactive and efficient in all roles.” F Blackley

We’ll help your home stand out from the start First impressions count in property sales, so our work begins long before we put your home on the market. We start moving from the moment we receive your instruction. The team will be out to look at your property, so that everyone can answer any question a potential buyer throws at us. We’ll suggest any little improvements you could make to increase the appeal to viewers. Then we’ll organise professional photography of your rooms and garden areas at no extra cost, draw up floor plans, arrange for an Energy Performance Certificate (if needed) and create compelling marketing material that will present your home in the very best light.
Attracting attention and interest
View homes for sale
Selling is an active process We approach each step with energy and diligence. Gathering evidence We will thoroughly research the sales history of similar houses in your neighbourhood and discuss this with you along with the prevailing market trends (locally, regionally and nationally) to help you arrive at the best price to suit your needs and timescale.
Maximising exposure We actively promote our properties through Rightmove, Zoopla, OnTheMarket, PrimeLocation, Facebook, Instagram and on our website (which attracts more than 1,000 visits a month) and use video walkthroughs to bring your home to life.
Approaching buyers
Delivering results
If you would prefer to advertise your home under the radar we are able to arrange private viewings for selected buyers who have registered their interest in hearing from us when suitable properties come onto our books. We can also use this approach to test the proposed price for your home rather than adjusting the price later once it is on the market.
Many hands make light work and, as far as we are concerned, faster sales. We make sure that everyone on the sales team is up to date with the latest news on your property so that we don’t keep people waiting for answers. It also means you can talk to any of us, at any time, because we are all actively working on your case. When we sell your home the commission goes to the team, rather than an individual, so everyone is equally incentivised to get that SOLD sign up.
Conducting viewings We find that most sellers would rather not show people around their homes themselves, while the buyers find it easier to talk openly when the owners are not within earshot. Our experienced staff are happy to conduct all viewings on your behalf and will provide you with formal feedback once the viewers have had a chance to reflect on it.
Analysing performance We use the back-office systems provided by online platforms to analyse valuable data relating to your listing, such as how often it is being viewed compared to other properties with a similar profile. We will talk through any findings with you and help you to decide whether any changes are required to attract more interest.

Supporting our community We love being part of the Petersfield community and doing our bit to support local activities and events wherever we can. We have been the proud sponsors of the Petersfield Rugby Club youth section’s shirts and handbook since 2017. For Easter, we organise our own version of an Easter egg hunt, hiding painted stones (with our logo) around the town and inviting anyone who finds one to pop in and collect their prize. We also sponsor the annual Big Sale organised by the Petersfield branch of Save the Children and, in September, we take part in the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support. In 2020 our office also became an official collection point for the FareShare Food Bank as part of the community response to Covid-19.
