Sales and Lettings agent James Laurence awarded Top Performer status and is bringing in a new era to the company. 

James Laurence Sales and Lettings are delighted to announce a brand new era and exciting new developments for the coming months. 

An independent, reassuringly local estate and letting agent based in Birmingham, they were established in 2004, beginning in the historic Jewellery Quarter as a family-run branch, and has grown into a highly regarded and successful estate agency.

The market leader in sales within the Birmingham ring road, and quickly becoming the market leader in both Edgbaston and Harborne, they have just been awarded a Top Performer status in eight Birmingham City Centre and Edgbaston postcodes from GETAGENT.co.uk. 

 

Managing Director David Gibbins says:

“I’m delighted with the Top Performer Status awards we have recently received from GETAGENT.co.uk. James Laurence Estates is expanding while continuing to hold the same high standards and traditional values that we have always maintained since the company was launched over 13 years ago. I’m extremely pleased about the promotion of Henry Crane to Associate Director and am proud of the performance and progression of our outstanding team.

The company has recently undergone a rebrand, complete with a fresh new website, with expansions to their sales and lettings teams across both their Birmingham City Centre and Edgbaston offices. 

 

Henry Crane is the new Associate Director at James Laurence. With over seven years of estate agency experience under his belt Henry has a role involving creating new business opportunities, valuations for potential vendors or landlords and overseeing property sales within the team.

He said: 

“In my new role as Associate Director of James Laurence I am pleased to say that the Birmingham housing market continues to be resilient, buoyant and affordable both in terms of property price and rental price growth. Within this competitive market place I am determined to maintain and drive forward the high standards of customer service and integrity that our customers have come to expect. You can be confident that we will do our best to provide a seamless sales or rental process, ensuring the sale or rental of your property is managed with the care it deserves so that we will continue to be your Estate Agent of choice.”

James Laurence are also expanding their lettings portfolio across the Birmingham City Centre, Edgbaston and Harborne areas with their experienced and ever-growing lettings team, with the very latest marketing and selling techniques that vendors and landlords should expect in an independent company. Using award-winning lettings software Goodlord to vet potential tenants and to speed up the whole pre-tenancy process to reduce void periods, they pride themselves on the complete customer service experience in letting a home, offering fantastic landlord property management service packages suitable for properties of any age and style.

The people we've helped

  • 5 star review  We recently switched from another letting agency to James Laurence, as we found their team so warm and friendly and loved the local aspect of the agency. The team have absolutely exceeded our expectations, making the changeover feel so seamless and finding new tenants for our apartment at really short notice. Lotti could not have been more wonderful to work with, going completely above and beyond to ensure our tenants could move in just before Christmas. We felt an immediate affinity with her and have so appreciated her attention to detail, quick thinking and creativity. She has made us feel so at ease, supported and like our property is in the safest of hands. Charlotte and Melissa have also been so helpful and lovely to deal with during the process. Having worked with several other agencies in Birmingham, I cannot recommend James Laurence highly enough. Look no further, they are the best!

  • 5 star review  The team at James Laurence was very helpful when I tried to find an apartment in Birmingham. I was in contact with a different letting agency but things fell through and they couldn't help me. A colleague of mine recommended James Laurence Lettings so I emailed them immediately since I was was moving from Sweden and the move would take place in less than a week. The team at James Laurence responded within 5 minutes and managed to offer me a few different apartment-options. Things proceeded quickly and smoothly and just a few days later I had they keys to the apartment. James Laurence helped me every step of the way and went above and beyond to accommodate my requests. The only minor negative thing I can say is that the interntal communication could be improved a tiny bit. I received slightly different information depending on who I was speaking with at the time. When I said I received different information earlier the person I spoke to said she would talk to her colleagues and then get in contact with me later with the "correct" information which she did and the issue got solved very quick.

  • 5 star review  Our experience with James Laurence Estate Agents was absolutely fantastic! Melissa Wilson made the application and referencing process smooth and easy with excellent communication. Everyone we spoke with from the office was kind, helpful, and welcoming. To top it all off, the loft we moved into was even better than the pictures! We are thrilled with our new home and we would absolutely recommend James Laurence to anyone looking for a place to live!

  • 5 star review  I have been very impressed with James Laurence, who have recently sold my property. Having previously had a poor experience with Purple Bricks, I instructed James Laurence to help sell my property. I have worked with Henry throughout the whole process and have found him to be very professional and knowledgeable as well as being efficient. It can't be stressed enough how important this is to have an estate agent that responds quickly, negotiates well and truly understands the market (especially during uncertain times like recently with the cover pandemic). I have briefly worked with Caroline and some of the other team members who also seem to be very efficient and friendly. Thanks again to James Laurence who I would fully recommend to anyone looking to Buy/Sell in Birmingham.

  • 5 star review  I recently sold my property with James Laurence, and the overall experience was great. They demonstrated a good knowledge of the Birmingham property market when discussing sales strategy, marketing and pricing (more than I was expecting) towards the beginning of my experience with them. This showed when we achieved 2 asking price offers within the first couple days of showings. Once an offer was accepted, their support did not stop there, Caroline (Sales Progression) did a fantastic job at liaising between myself and the buyers side, helping to progress items and remove any potential blockers. I would fully recommend James Laurence to anyone looking to Buy/Sell in Birmingham.
