Most agents give you a number. We give you the evidence.
Anyone can name a flattering figure to win your business. We build your valuation from real sold prices, comparable homes and a 100-point check, then show you exactly how we got there. Honest advice, backed by proof, from a local team that genuinely cares how it ends.
Honest advice, backed by our fee.
Plenty of agents will tell you what you want to hear to win your business, then push for a price cut a few weeks later. We refuse to work that way. We price your home on the evidence, and we put our own fee behind that advice.
Instruct us at our recommended launch price, and if we ever advise reducing it, we cut our fee by the same percentage as the reduction.
Your figure comes from completed sold prices and a 100-point check, never a number designed to flatter.
If our advice turns out too high and we recommend a cut, our fee drops by the very same percentage.
Honest guidance from day one, whether or not you decide to sell with us. The evidence does the talking.
Applies when you instruct us within 2.5% of our recommended launch price. Any fee reduction matches the recommended price reduction during the accountability period. Full terms are provided with your valuation.
Technology does the homework. Humans make the call.
Most valuations are guesswork dressed up as confidence. Ours are built from real evidence: completed sold prices, comparable homes, floor-area analysis and a 100-point check that sits behind every figure. You do not just get a number, you get the workings.
But data alone does not sell a home. We are an independent agency rooted in Lanchester and the surrounding Durham villages, and every valuation is reviewed and signed off by a real person, Simon or Lauren, before it reaches you. Honest advice and genuine local knowledge, from the first conversation to the day you hand over the keys.

People who trusted us with their homes.
We sold our house with Bourne & Co and were delighted with the process. Simon and his team treated us like a member of the family, not just another instruction.
Brilliant from start to finish. The video they produced for our property was absolutely outstanding and we had viewings booked within 24 hours of going live.
Honest, proactive and genuinely invested in getting us the best result. We would not hesitate to recommend Bourne & Co to anyone thinking of selling.
