Business Details
We are Stanbra Powell, an independent estate agency with roots firmly planted in Banbury since our establishment in April 1985. Founded by Bryan Powell and Philip Stanbra, friends since 1969, our business was built on extensive local housing market experience and a deep-rooted knowledge of the area where we were born. From the outset, we cultivated strong contacts with local solicitors and building societies, which were crucial to establishing a robust presence in the community. Our reputation grew as we developed connections with national builders such as Bovis Homes and Federated Homes, a legacy of trust we continue to uphold today. We navigated significant property market downturns through astute management, ensuring we were well-positioned to capitalise on opportunities when the market rebounded in 1995. Our property rental and management division, now expertly managed by Alex Lock and his team, has grown substantially and remains a vital revenue stream for our company.

We embraced the digital age early by partnering with Rightmove, Zoopla, and OnTheMarket, enhancing our marketing reach while never losing the personal touch that defines our client service. Our leadership team, including Senior Director Adam Prewer who joined as a trainee in 2000, ensures we possess both extensive knowledge and fresh perspectives. We are committed to providing exceptional service, driven by a passion for property and unwavering dedication to our clients. Our enduring success is a testament to our commitment to community roots and our ability to adapt and grow in a changing market. We are excited about our future as we continue to expand our services in Banbury and the surrounding areas. With over 39 years of operational history, our team remains dedicated to solving our clients' property challenges with professionalism and integrity.
