Winkworth was established as an upmarket estate agency in 1835 and run by members of the Winkworth family, who then sold the agency in 1967. Since then the Winkworth reputation for expert knowledge and professional service continued to grow and broaden its market appeal, whilst maintaining its upmarket clientele. Then in 1981 with 10 offices in London, a decision was made to franchise the offices in order to maximise the benefits Winkworth could offer its clients.
Winkworth drew on its expert knowledge of the London market to create a unique network of independently owned and operated offices in strategic territories. The offices became established around prime London village locations and enabled Winkworth to match buyers with sellers across the capital.
Over the years Winkworth has gained a reputation for providing guidance to first-time buyers as to the up-and-coming areas, and advice to those seeking to move up the property ladder. With local offices and specialist property knowledge the Winkworth network enables both buyers and sellers to take advantage of our wide coverage and, we hope, find the buying and selling process easier.
With the dynamic growth of London Winkworth’s insight has proven astute. The buyer has become more flexible when choosing which area of London he wishes to live. So it has proven vital that offices can intercommunicate with each other to ensure that our buyers can search the whole of London for their ideal property.
Recognising the benefits all our clients receive from an interactive network Winkworth have strived to improve the services we offer. We have created a bespoke software package that will unlock the potential of our flourishing and extensive London network, allowing every office to interact with each other to the unique advantage of every Winkworth client. Furthermore with our revamped website it has never been easier for clients to find the property they desire at a time convenient for them.
Now Winkworth is transferring its proven formula for success to Yorkshire having established core centres in Sheffield and York.
As a dynamic estate agent Winkworth will always aim to broaden it horizons, whether through technological advances, marketing innovations or our rapidly expanding national presence. Whatever future advances Winkworth make sure it will always bring a better service for our clients.
