A new estate agency in Hampshire is celebrating after listing more than £18 million worth of property in just its first three months in business.

Rowe & Co Homes says it has also listed more £1million-plus homes than any other agent in its core area this year.

The agency launched its first office in Chandler’s Ford in December, and has ambitious plans to expand to other key locations throughout the area in the next two years.

In the past three months it has listed homes in Chandler’s Ford, Fair Oak, Otterbourne, Eastleigh and Hedge End worth over £18 million.

The company has listed four homes above a million pounds, ranging from £1.195 million to £1.295 million, three of which are now under offer. The average property price on listing is over £650,000.

The company has been so successful that it has been able to bring forward its plans and has created a role for a sales negotiator, recently recruiting Harry Barrett.

Rowe & Co Homes was launched by managing director Rob Rowe and associate director James Steele.

Rob has been a local estate agent for more than 25 years, including leading multiple offices for well-known independent firms in and around Southampton.

James has over a decade of experience as an estate agent leading offices in Winchester, Fair Oak and Basingstoke.

Rob said: “It has been an amazing three months here at Rowe & Co Homes.

“We are thrilled that so many homeowners have put their trust in us to sell their properties, safe in the knowledge that we have all the expertise and knowledge required to deliver the best possible selling experience.

“To have listed more than £18 million of properties, located right across the Southampton region, represents a huge vote of confidence in the way we go about our business.

“With the market now continuing to improve, the future looks very bright indeed.”

James said: “We have seen a steady increase in demand as the first quarter has progressed.

“The press has been increasingly more positive with inflation dropping and interest rates steadying, bringing a fresh feel of confidence back to the market.”
