Robinson Residential Sales & Lettings

JAPANESE KNOTWEED

I have recently been involved in the sale of a property where the surveyor for the mortgage lender discovered Japanese Knotweed in the adjoining property. Regrettably, it had established itself and had started to invade my clients’ property.

Lenders have recently lowered their criteria when it comes to properties with evidence of the plant. For example, if the plant is more than 7 metres away from the back wall it is not deemed as an urgent problem.

Like any problem, if left unchecked it will only get worse. Looking on Google is a start although there are some horror stories out there. There really is no need to panic. I have found a number of companies who offer a free initial survey and then provide a programme for eradicating the plant and offering a guarantee.

How does this problem relate to my service? Simple. I make myself available to attend mortgage valuation surveys...

Welcome to Robinson Estate Agents

Established in 2004, Robinson Estate Agents are Maidenhead's leading independent professional practice specialising in the sale and letting of residential property in Maidenhead.

The partners in the business have a passion for customer service and our business is built on recommendation and reputation.

We offer a bespoke and personal service providing clients with the best possible advice on any aspect of their property. Each property is the responsibility of a partner from valuation through to completion. We tailor the marketing to a property's individual requirements as we do not believe 'one size fits all'. We do not have a high street office allowing flexibility to fit in with our clients and the internet is our 'shop window'.

Our approach is centred around the following:

Individual Attention – each instruction is managed by a partner from valuation through to completion. Each client will have the mobile telephone number of the partner responsible for their property.

Expert Advice – Membership of the RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) and ARLA (Association of Residential Letting Agents) ensures the highest levels of ethical codes of practice are adhered to. Under the rules, agents are required to protect and promote their clients interests while at all times acting in a fair and proper manner. By choosing Robinson you can be sure you are dealing with an experienced and professional agent. This is unique to the Maidenhead residential property market.

Positive Action – We pride ourselves on providing a ‘hands on’ service with practical advice and problem solving for clients. We are not afraid to give an honest opinion or recommendation and will back it up with positive action.

We believe these make us unique in the Maidenhead residential property market.

Should you need any advice on selling or letting your property, please contact us and we would be happy to arrange an appointment that suits you.
