Our Story
Built on experience. Driven by relationships. Focused on you.
With over 30 years of combined experience in the property industry, our team at Woodstead Sales & Lettings has learned what truly works for homeowners and landlords across Nottingham. We’ve worked with some of the UK’s biggest estate agencies, which taught us a lot about the kind of service people deserve when buying, selling, or letting a home.
We started Woodstead with a simple goal — to offer a more personal, supportive approach to estate agency. No high-pressure sales tactics, just honest advice, clear communication, and genuine care for every client we work with.
As local property experts, we know Nottingham and its surrounding areas inside out. We’re proud to be part of the community and to help people move forward with confidence, whether that’s finding their next home, selling their property, or growing their investment portfolio.

Why We Started This Agency
After decades working within large corporate estate agencies, we saw a recurring theme, clients were treated like numbers, conversations felt scripted, and the personal touch was missing.
We started Woodstead because we knew things could be done differently.
We believed there was a better way to serve people, with real relationships, honest advice, and a service that actually felt human. We wanted to create a space where clients felt heard, supported, and confident from start to finish - whether they were buying their first home, letting a flat, or managing a portfolio.
Woodstead was built with people at the heart of property. No gimmicks. No overpromising. Just a team that genuinely cares and delivers.
