Our Story
Built on experience. Driven by relationships. Focused on you. Woodstead Sales and Lettings was created for people who want more from their estate agent in Nottingham, whether that is help with a house valuation, selling a family home, or letting an investment property.
With more than 30 years of combined experience in the property industry, our team has learned what truly works for homeowners and landlords across Nottinghamshire. We have worked within some of the UKs biggest estate agencies, which showed us exactly how important clear advice, realistic house valuations and honest communication are for every client.
Who We Are
We started Woodstead with a simple goal, to offer a more personal and supportive approach to estate agency. No high pressure sales tactics, no confusing jargon, just straightforward guidance from a local estate agent in Nottingham that you can trust. We focus on realistic pricing, accurate house valuation, and affordable and cheap fee options that are clear from day one.
As local property experts, we know Nottingham and the surrounding areas in detail, from schools and transport links to the small selling points that make streets and neighbourhoods feel like home. Whether you are booking a house valuation, selling your property, or growing a rental portfolio, our aim is always the same, to help you move forward with confidence.
What We Stand For
We do not treat clients as numbers. We build long term relationships based on trust and results. You are never just another listing, whether you come to us for a quick house valuation or a full sales and lettings service.
Clear communication is at the heart of what we do. We tell you what you need to hear, not just what sounds good, so that your pricing, marketing plan and expectations are all realistic and well informed.
You deserve clarity on costs. Our fees are competitive, affordable and easy to understand, with no hidden extras. We explain exactly what you are paying for and why, so you can see the value in every part of our service.
We are Nottingham born and bred and proud of it. We know the streets, school catchments and local buyer trends that affect every house valuation and sales strategy, and we use that knowledge to your advantage.
Whether it is a quick question about a valuation or an update on a sale, we respond quickly and keep you informed. Fast replies and regular communication mean you never feel left in the dark.
We started Woodstead because we believed estate agency could be better, more personal, more professional and more human. Every day we work to deliver that higher standard for our clients across Nottingham.

Why We Started Woodstead
After decades working within large corporate estate agencies, we noticed the same pattern, clients often felt like a number, conversations sounded scripted, and the personal touch was missing. Important decisions about house valuation, pricing and offers were sometimes rushed or not fully explained.
We knew there was a better way. We wanted an estate agency in Nottingham that put people at the heart of property, with real relationships, honest advice and a service that felt human from start to finish.
Woodstead was created for that reason. No gimmicks, no overpromising, just a team that genuinely cares, offers affordable and cheap fee options, and delivers careful, considered support whether you are booking a house valuation, buying your first home, letting a flat or managing a wider portfolio.
