When I decided to sell my first flat, a Grade 2 Listed studio in Westhumble, I contacted three estate agents to carry out valuations. As soon as Graham walked into my flat, I knew he was the right estate agent for me; he was positive and professional whilst not being pushy. Throughout the whole process, Graham kept me updated regularly. We communicated via WhatsApp, during the day and evenings/weekends which made it easy whilst working full time. Graham had a key to my flat and carried out all viewings; his view being that people are far more honest when the owner isn't there. This strategy worked as the flat wasn't on the market for long and he found a buyer who really loved the flat and its location. The sale went through without a hitch!

http://ewemove.com/dorkingLet me introduce myself. I'm Graham Faulkner, your local EweMove personal agent. I haven't moved very far. I was born and bred in Epsom, met my wife Dawn and moved to Sutton, then to Dorking where we've lived for nearly 30 years now and raised our two boys. We love Dorking and Leatherhead and even now still frequently comment on how lucky we are to live in such a fantastic part of England, in the heart of the Surrey Hills and its Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. I started in property in 2002 by becoming an "accidental landlord" when we were struggling to sell the family home. We refinanced to rent it out which let us buy our current home, and then refinanced that home to start building a property portfolio which we still have and look after today. The recession of 2008 hit us quite hard and yet opportunity came knocking in 2013 when I was invited by one of the founding directors of EweMove to become a pilot franchisee and get in at the very beginning. I thought well, I'm managing my own portfolio now, so why not do it for other landlords, so I was in! It's been quite a journey from being a fledgling business where no-one knew us to the large but still growing network it is now. Helping people move by selling or buying homes, or letting out or renting, has been quite a buzz and I love nothing better than to see people move on as they wish in their lives. It can be quite a journey sometimes, and I'm here to take on some of the stress – many times I've been the verbal stressball, but it's part of the job, and I'm happy to help (and it certainly does help!). Anyway that's pretty much me. I'd love to hear your story, please do get in touch and I'll see what I can do to help.
