Our team is proud to have made a significant impact in the local property market and beyond, and we’re excited to share our highlights.

1. CoStar UK Award: Most Active Agent in Kent for Three Consecutive Years

For the third year running, Bracketts was honoured with the CoStar UK Award for Most Active Agent in Kent. This award acknowledges the hard work and dedication of our team, who consistently go above and beyond to provide outstanding service to property buyers, sellers, and investors. Our focus on delivering results and supporting our clients through the ever-evolving property market in Tunbridge Wells has helped us earn this prestigious recognition.

2. Tyson Sheppard Shortlisted for the RICS Matrics Surveyor of the Year Awards

We are also incredibly proud of Tyson Sheppard MRICS, Chartered Building Surveyor and Partner at Bracketts, who was shortlisted as a finalist for the RICS Matrics Surveyor of the Year Awards 2024. This prestigious award recognises individuals who have demonstrated exceptional expertise and dedication within the property sector. Tyson’s recognition is a testament to his professional excellence and his ongoing contribution to both Bracketts and the property industry in Tunbridge Wells.

3. Tonbridge’s No.1 Selling Agent – Rightmove Achievement

Another major achievement for Bracketts in 2024 was being named Tonbridge’s No.1 Selling Agent on Rightmove. This recognition highlights our team’s strong reputation and trusted position within the local property market. Whether you’re buying, selling, or letting in Tunbridge Wells or the surrounding areas, Bracketts’ deep local knowledge and proven results ensure that you’re in safe hands.

4. Commitment to Sustainability: Joining Amplifi and Net Zero Journey

At Bracketts, sustainability is a key focus for us. In 2024, we became a proud member of Amplifi, a network of businesses in Tunbridge Wells working together to combat the climate emergency. In addition, we embarked on our Net Zero Journey, partnering with Net Zero Now to reduce our carbon footprint. We’ve already begun taking steps, including a comprehensive carbon audit, and are now setting both short- and long-term goals to ensure our operations contribute to a more sustainable future.

5. Planting Over 1,000 Trees for a Greener Future

As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability, our Trees for Homes initiative continues to grow. For every property we sell or let, we plant a tree. In 2024, we surpassed the milestone of planting over 1,000 trees, which will collectively capture around 1,800 tonnes of CO2 over their lifetime. This effort contributes to the long-term environmental health of Tunbridge Wells and the wider community.

6. Launching the Property Advisory Panel

We are also excited to have launched the Property Advisory Panel, in collaboration with other local property professionals. This initiative provides valuable support and advice to property owners and occupiers in Tunbridge Wells, helping them navigate the complexities of the property market and make informed decisions.

We have had a first-class experience of marketing and competing the sale of a property within 3 months with Bracketts Estate Agents in Tunbridge Wells. We had excellent advice from Sarah Mott throughout the process and both Sarah and Kim Stephenson kept us fully informed along the way. Efficient communication with the buyer and our solicitor managed, and overcame, issues along the way and I would not hesitate to recommend this team in what can be a stressful time.

We've just finished a tenancy with Bracketts and found the overall experience very positive. We had come from a rather negative experience with our previous letting agents in London and Bracketts were much more professional.

We had some viewings with other agents in Tunbridge Wells. One of these agents had stated that we would need to return for a followup interview with the landlord before our application would be considered, and that we should consider what we would to "incentivise" the landlord to go with us in terms of offering a higher rent to compete with other applicants. Needless to say, we did not proceed with that agent.

At our viewing with Bracketts they made it clear they didn't endorse betting wars on the part of the tenants: the price listed was the price that would go forwards. They were responsive throughout the tenancy, and though the building had a few age-related issues, Brackett's responded as well as possible.

Highly recommended if you're looking to rent in the area.

I rented through Brackets for just over four years, and my experience was thoroughly enjoyable. The inventory reports were consistently accurate, and whenever any issues arose during my stay, the management team responded swiftly to resolve them. The property itself was well-maintained and kept to a high standard throughout my time.
Response from the owner:Hi Lukasz - thank you for this brilliant feedback as a tenant of 4 years. Its great to hear that the team looked after you so well and thank you also for being a wonderful tenant. We'd all be pleased to help you in the future. The lettings team send you their very best wishes :)

Robust professional service, I dealt with Tyson who provided advice I could trust and took time to ensure I understood the information provided. I would recommend Tyson if you need a surveyor.
Response from the owner:Hi Alex - thank you for leaving this 5 star review for Tyson - we appreciate the feedback and you taking time to leave this. If we can ever be of any help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask. All the best from Tyson and the team.
