Lords Awarded Membership of the Guild of Professional Estate Agents

Lords, Kingston upon Thames' leading estate agent, have recently been awarded membership of the prestigious Guild of Professional Estate Agents.

The Guild is a nationwide network of over 400 carefully selected Independent Estate Agents, all considered local experts in their chosen areas, who are dedicated to providing a superior level of customer service to their clients and known for their high standards, integrity and professionalism.

As market leader in the Royal Borough and with the benefits of a prominent and easily recognised brand, and an excellent local reputation, Lords Estate Agents exceeded the Guild's exacting Membership criteria, and in recognition of this achievement were selected as The Guild's sole representative in this beautiful and historic part of South West London.

"We are delighted to have been invited to join the Guild of Professional Estate Agents," said Guy Hodge, Managing Director and Founder of Lords, "and are the only local estate agency firm that has been afforded the opportunity. The Guild not only increases our credibility and professionalism, but adds a host of new and exciting tools to our marketing armoury, including a luxury property magazine, a specialised property portal and an Estate Agency office in Park Lane."

Speaking on behalf of the Guild, CEO Marcus Whewell said, "We are delighted to welcome Lords into the Guild as our representatives in Kingston upon Thames. Their excellent reputation and focus on outstanding service mean that they will be an important and valued asset to the network."

Guild Membership is more than just a badge of quality and professionalism - Guild Members also have access to a unique range of marketing services including:

• High quality leaflets, brochures and other sales materials.
• An exclusive monthly Property Magazine, distributed nationwide through the Guild network (please click here to see Lords latest edition).
• Internet marketing to a worldwide audience via the Guild's own highly rated property website, www.guildproperty.co.uk.
• A countrywide referral network, linking Guild Members together with hundreds of other agents and generating thousands of enquiries each year.
• Guild Intelligence: up-to-date local market information to drive sales and marketing activities.
• Direct, high quality access to the lucrative international and investment market through the Guild's National Property Centre, located in London's world renowned Park Lane.

With all these advantages, Lords will continue to offer the exceptionally high standards for which they have become renowned, but now add this professional network committed to excellence to their portfolio of sales tools. Guy Hodge summed it up, "In an ever changing property market, we at Lords understand that our clients are looking for a little more than the average agent is able to provide. The Guild will help us to achieve this ambition."
