Why choose Callaways Brighton & Hove for your Property Sale or Let Why choosing Callaways for marketing your property in Brighton & Hove is a wise move In a rapidly changing and fiercely competitive property market, being innovative is not only necessary but becomes a prerequisite if you want to remain profitable and grow your property portfolio business. The traditional landscape of the high street estate agent is constantly being challenged both by a savvy general public, Do-It-Yourself (DIY) portals and the seemingly none stoppable digital revolution. With such challenges we have to stay ahead of the game and our approach has been to focus on marketing innovation which embraces all routes to market and not just the old above and below the line marketing strategies. We have listened to our customers and introduced new services and in corroboration with our employees produced a targeted training and development plan to ensure we have the right quality people in place to deliver the customer service that is required in today’s market place. Marketing Innovation In light of this assault from numerous online and corporate estate agency brands in Brighton & Hove, providing value added service to customers has become even more paramount. Conceptually we are moving away from simply listing properties to providing a consultancy service. This service includes trying to source required properties for people who want to live by a particular school or who require rental yield information when considering buying a buy-to-let. We can also help would-be home buyers with decorating their new homes when they move in, and provide in-depth knowledge of what it’s like living in the local area in terms of amenities, restaurants and bars and the typical social-economic groups that frequent the neighbourhood. This integrated package offers more than the simple transactional model of making the sale. Bespoke Marketing – Media Plan Property marketing has also come under the spotlight and in response to feedback from our clients we have created a pick and mix of marketing options that our vendors can select to market their property. After an initial consultation with our marketing consultants who advise on preparing your property for sale, identification of target markets a tailored marketing plan is created. The agreed strategy is then executed for an agreed period of time and then a scheduled review takes place. Monitoring and evaluation takes place throughout the Campaign and the effectiveness of each marketing initiative independently assessed against enquiries, viewings and offers. The strength of this initiative is the partnership element between agent and vendor. Budgets and timescales are agreed in advance, success is measured by the impartiality of data and if required corrected measures again agreed in consultation with the client are put in place. Communication Paramount to good client relations is communication and so we provide forums to engage with our stakeholder groups on a regular basis. We have reviewed all of our communication and touch points with our customer base to make sure we are providing required information both in the specified time frame and using the client selected media. Using proprietary software, we engage with our customers at predefined points throughout the buying/service life cycle. As a result of data derived from these sources we have fine-tuned the development, execution and evaluation of our communication plan. The scope of this work includes letters, thank-you cards, birthday/anniversary triggers, email marketing, and post sales and service customer service questionnaires. Our inhouse newsletter, Pillars & Posts, are sent out to the customer base on a monthly basis keeping them up to date on legal changes, marketing initiatives, and news on what is happening at branch level. We also keep in contact via direct mail, email marketing, SMS, adverts and PR. New Services & Initiatives The online marketing environment has grown significantly over the past year. We have put a lot of effort into site navigation as we have tried to enhance our “web user experience” when visitors come to the site. We list more information about the property for sale or rent, and provide floor plans. We have fully embraced social media in the last year devising campaigns on both Facebook and Twitter. Our Facebook campaign has focused around quirky copy about the properties we have available or what it’s like to live in Brighton & Hove and other areas. This material has been interspersed with lifestyle, gardening and interior design copy. This we believe provides added value and gets our friends hooked and our likes growing, promoting brand awareness. We have used twitter as a tool to promote our brand and services. We have written industry related blogs which we are able to tweet to our followers and devised lists of twitter followers into segmented group.

It was my first experience of renting and have found that Callaway are amazing Landlords I would highly recommend them to anyone considering renting or buying. Steve Wiltshire 28/03/2025 We have been with Callaways for over 7 years and can’t praise them highly enough. Nothing is too much trouble for them, they are quick and efficient at any problem you have. All the staff are on a first name basis which makes it more personal and always there to help or advise. Every aspect of Callaways is carried out to the highest of standards and with respect. Ceri Roberts 28/03/2025 I’ve rented through Callaways for several years and have always found the team to be helpful and responsive. They’re quick to respond to any issues, and always consider the tenant’s experience and point of view, so I always feel that I’m treated fairly. Tim W 26/03/2025 We have been using Callaways Lettings Service for many years and have received a consistantly good service from their dedicated staff. We have been particularly impressed with their knowledge and expertise of the lettings business and their ability to work closely with the Building Management Teams. This has resulted in good relations with Landlords and the speedy resolution of maintenance and tenant issues. Callaways are equally professional in their management of home sales, something we are currently experiencing with them. Mark Simpson 26/03/2025 As a contractor specialising in Gardening, I’ve had the pleasure of working with Callaways over the past year. Tenants are always informed of my arrival and I am given detailed work’s orders to complete the jobs I am asked to do. I highly recommend Callaways! joe gray 18/09/2024 Thank you to Laura at Callaways for making the process of purchasing our new beach hut such a seamless experience! From our first viewing, to finalising our offer, providing all the necessary information and documentation, and helping with the paperwork, we couldn’t have asked for more. We are over the moon with our new hut and looking forward to making memories ❤️ Ananya Shrivastava 10/06/2024 I came in touch with Callaways, via Rightmove. I was aware that finding a rental in Brighton is a tenuous process, but, Callaways was a gush of fresh air, as opposed to what I heard. I had interacted with James Duffy, who’s a Branch Manager at Callaways, and was delighted to observe how smooth my transition with them was! Professional, diligent, transparent, always on-time, and quick to understand and process the requests! For someone who recently moved, it was a great help. From the administrative side, Laura Simpson was friendly, welcoming, responsive, and understanding. Interacting with these two made the transition a whole lot easier. I’d recommend them to anyone without a doubt. Justin 15/10/2023 Callaways have served us for nearly 10 years. They helped us prepare a property for rent, fully managed the rental property and have just sold the property for us. Throughout that time we have found them to be professional, courteous and proactive. They provided advice when required and arranged everything that needed to be done. Our experience with all Callaways staff has been positive but for many years now most of our interactions have been with Jacqui on the lettings side and James on the sales. Both seem so suited to their roles and are just the sort of people you want to look after or sell your property. We had no previous experience of letting agents but we know in Jacqui and Callaways, very good ones do exist. For the sale, James showed excellent communications. He was instrumental in keeping everyone talking, chasing progress and getting it done. Thank you all.
