Why use Crayson

Most people are reasonable. That’s why they only do reasonably well.

They think it’s reasonable to expect someone to be a specialist at many things. Like buying. And at selling. All at the same time. With your money.

The result: they’re satisfied getting a reasonable deal.

We say: how can you get the best price for your property if you’re on two opposite sides at the same time? (Or rather, how can you be satisfied with dissatisfaction knowing you could have done better?)

Quite simply, you can’t. To be a specialist means you specialise. You become the expert at one thing. As a result, you excel at it.

At Crayson, we’re specialists in selling.

This way we sell well. In fact, a lot better than well.

Which is why we will get you a price beyond all unreasonable expectations.


Five good reasons
for using Crayson



1 Seniors only, please. Parting company with a property is an emotional time - and a stressful one. Not a time to have different faces on the case. At Crayson, the same person you meet at the valuation will be the same person managing the sale of your house. A highly experienced manager. Someone you can talk with. More importantly, someone with the savvy to be able to talk to buyers.

2 The unreasonable. Our speciality. It’s our policy to have an up-to-the-minute breakdown on any political or economic aspects that might affect your house sale. We not only analyse the market - the shifts, the swerves, the drops, the soars - we have regular meetings to check someone hasn’t heard something we’ve missed.

More than this, we’re are the only people in Notting Hill and its environs who conduct dedicated local independent monthly research reports and a highly authoritative review every quarter. This gives us more information than our competition. More importantly, it enables us to give informed, up-to-date data to support your sale so we can get the very best price. Yes, it may be unreasonable to expect us to have such facts and figures at our immediate disposal. But then we specialise in the unreasonable.

3 We’ll see to it that you’re seen. A sheet of A4 in the window is not the way to sell a Grade A property. Which is why we’ve nurtured an excellent relationship with the real shop window: The local property press – and the best web portals. Whatever is most suitable to sell your property. The list is long. The coverage, extensive. The readership, spot on. We guarantee you’ll be spotted. We have our own award-winning photographer who has worked with all the top magazines. Not a man with a camera. A man with an eye. An eye for what sells. And what doesn’t.

4 An unprecedented level of service. We didn’t set up to be just another estate agent. We don’t even call ourselves an estate agency. We believe that selling your property requires a bespoke agency, offering a tailor-made service. One that sets a new, extremely high standard. For example, if you need daily updates on the progress of your sale, you’ll get them. We never forget progress sometimes depends upon unreasonable requests.

5 On your terms. Not ours. Whatever we do, we do it to get you the best price. Not everyone goes as far as we do to get it. And because they just might not get the price you want, they stitch you up into fix-term contracts. And there goes their incentive. They’ve got you. At Crayson, with no fixed-term on the contract, you’re free to give us the boot, if by some freak reason, the shoe doesn’t fit. Of course, we’d find that highly unreasonable. And we hope you’ll find it hard to find a good reason.
