Business Details
We are Lane & Holmes, an estate agency established in 1985 by our founding partners, Andrew Willmer and Nick Kier. Since our inception, we have built a reputation as a leading estate agent for quality homes in and around the Bedford area. In 2002, we enhanced our services by forming the Lane Group of companies, networking the expertise of twelve offices across Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire, and Hertfordshire. This expansion, alongside our Mayfair office in central London, ensures we offer comprehensive local, county, and national coverage. We were also founder members of Move with Us, a network of over 1,200 offices nationwide, further solidifying our reach. In 2007, we launched Lane & Holmes Lettings, which quickly became the fastest growing lettings agency in Bedford. Our lettings service now serves North Bedfordshire and stretches across the A1 into Cambridgeshire in association with Whites Property Services.
We have fully embraced technological advancements, operating a fully computerised database that links all our offices together. This system allows us to distribute property details quickly and efficiently via email, text messaging, and traditional methods. Our commitment to professional standards is reflected in the positive feedback we receive from clients who appreciate our clear communication. We consistently go above and beyond, diligently chasing solicitors to navigate even the most challenging property chains. Ultimately, our goal is to provide a highly professional service that keeps every client fully informed at every step of their property journey.
