No. Every year we arrange many sales and tenancies that never appear online and are never advertised to the public. To find out about everything we have for sale and let and to find out about properties that are being discreetly marketed, you need to register with us.
When you sell or let your property with Curchods, you get given access to MyCurchods – our customer portal which provides information about your property sale/let, including conveyancing progress and updates, contract documents and correspondence and easy access to your property listing.
We know your time is valuable, which is why we accompany potential buyers and tenants on 100% of viewing appointments, which not only means more convenience and security for you, but also means our expert sales staff can really ‘sell’ the benefits of your property and help achieve the maximum price for your property.
Curchods Mortgage Services are ‘whole of the market’ mortgage advisers, which means they are often able to find lending options that High Street banks cannot match. We can look at your position in detail and help you find the right mortgage product for your needs.

As a seller or landlord, you can take advantage of our No Sale/No Let, No Fee facility, which means you only pay when we sell or let your home – if we don’t succeed for you, you pay us nothing.

All of our 24 residential sales branches are now officially licensed under Propertymark the UK’s leading independent regulatory body. This means your local residential sales branch is one of a very few number of local agents who are licensed.
The Property Ombudsman’s role in residential sales is to provide fair and reasonable resolutions to disputes between members of the public and estate agents who are members of the TPO Scheme or who have registered with TPO as an Approved Estate Agents Redress Scheme. Firms who are members follow the TPO Code of Practice for Residential Sales.
We are part of the Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS), ensuring our Landlords and Tenants are covered at all times throughout the letting process.
The Property Ombudsman is able to consider disputes referred by landlords or tenants and relating to lettings and management agents that are members of the Scheme. These agents follow the TPO Code of Practice for Letting Agents.
Note that disputes relating to repayment of deposits paid by tenants and which are protected by an approved Tenancy Deposit Scheme should be referred to the relevant Deposit Protection Scheme.
