Unrivalled Experience & Expertise
Teddington Property Search was founded by Nick Ellis
Having worked for independent estate agents in both Gloucester and Stroud, Nick gained a lot of experience in the sales of all different types of properties. From Victorian, Edwardian, post-war 50’s houses, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s modern housing estates, ex-local authority and pre-fabricated construction properties, to barn conversions and countryside properties, Nick has dealt with them all.
He was asked if he wanted to go and value a property on just his second day in the job - something that was unheard of at the time - and he just loved to get properties on the market and get them sold. He loved the feeling of an exchange of contracts and the thought of people finally getting their hands on the keys of their dream home.
Nick then went on to work for a national new homes builder as a Home Exchange Manager, negotiating with people who wanted to part exchange their old home for a brand new one. This involved instructing several agents to value the property, negotiating the deal, visiting the property and all the chosen estate agents. He was buying properties all over the country in areas he’d never even been to before, so research was key. He also had to instruct surveyors, solicitors and sell homes on at a profit.

Your very own 'Location, Location, Location'!
Inspired by the program 'Location, Location, Location' and particularly the hosts Phil Spencer and Kirstie Allsopp and an article in The Times about Phil many years ago, Nick always hoped to bring his experience and expertise to bear on behalf of people who need or want help to buy a property, a part of the market he felt is crucial but severely underserved, particularly by the everyday market that you often see on the programmes.
It seems that the perception of home finders is more for the prime and super-prime luxury market, and whilst that is true to a certain extent, people in every price range need or want help and it should be available and affordable to all.
There’s a lot more to it than what they are able to show on the programme in an hour mind you, and in the phrase that Phil often uses “you get a lot more bang for your buck”.
