This About Us page could really be renamed an About Me page as the one thing I guarantee is a friendly, personal and honest service. You see I'm not a national chain, or a countrywide set up with franchises spanning the UK. I'm not even a large local High Street office with a high turnover of staff. I've worked for chains and large estate agencies during my 20 years in the industry and felt the personal touch was being lost.
It had gotten to the point of viewing people as numbers rather than valued customers who deserve great service and respect. It was this faceless anonymity that was the driving force behind setting up Benjamin Matthews Estate Agents. When you instruct us you'll always have a constant point of contact - me. There's no passing the buck and certainly no palming people off with excuses and 'I'm sorry, the person dealing with your sale has left.'
Every sale matters to me. That's why my motto is simply 'Your Estate Agent' because when I'm working on your behalf I'm exactly that.

Stamp duty is a tax paid by people buying property, although it varies slightly across the UK.
The amount handed to the government depends on where you are in the UK, and the price of the property.
See further details below.
After this date, until the end of September, there will be a staggered return to the previous stamp duty rates.
If you're a first-time buyer and buying a property worth less than 250,000 then you will not have to pay a penny in stamp duty.
Stamp duty must be paid to the HMRC within 30 days of the date of completion or you may risk a fine.
