A Tradition Of Trust

A Tradition of Trust in Cornwall Property

Philip Martin is an independent estate agency established in 1986, providing professional property advice across Cornwall.

Over nearly four decades, we have built a reputation based on experience, integrity and long-term client relationships. While the property market has evolved, our approach has remained consistent: clear advice, realistic guidance and a professional service built on trust.


Independent, Established and Locally Focused

As an independent firm, we are able to focus entirely on our clients rather than volume-driven targets. This allows us to provide considered, tailored advice for each instruction.

With offices in Truro and St Mawes, we advise clients across mid, south and west Cornwall, covering city, village, coastal and rural property. Our local knowledge is grounded in decades of active involvement in the Cornwall property market.


Experience That Informs Our Advice

Philip Martin is led by an experienced partnership team with specialist expertise across residential sales, lettings, valuations and land.

Our senior team includes Chartered Surveyors and experienced property professionals who provide advice that is accurate, realistic and commercially informed. We believe that clear guidance, based on experience rather than speculation, leads to better decisions and stronger outcomes for our clients.


Professional Standards and Clear Advice

We operate to high professional and ethical standards, placing transparency and accountability at the centre of our work.

Clients choose Philip Martin because we offer:

  • Honest and realistic market advice

  • Clear communication throughout the process

  • Accurate pricing and valuation guidance

  • A calm, professional and dependable approach

We do not over-promise. Our focus is on delivering a reliable service and well-managed results.


A Comprehensive Property Service Across Cornwall

We provide a full range of property services across Cornwall, including:

  • Residential Sales – Houses, apartments, cottages and coastal property

  • Residential Lettings & Property Management – Professional services for landlords and tenants

  • Valuations – Probate, taxation, insurance, matrimonial and private purposes

  • Land & Development – Sales and advisory services

  • Auctioneering – Traditional and modern auction formats

Each service is delivered with attention to detail and an understanding of local market conditions.


Relationships Built on Trust

Many of our clients return to Philip Martin over many years and across multiple transactions. Recommendations and repeat instructions form a significant part of our business.

We believe trust is built through consistency, reliability and clear advice — not sales claims or short-term gains.


Why Trust Matters in Property

Property decisions carry significant financial and personal importance. Clients need advice they can rely on.

At Philip Martin, trust is built through:

  • Nearly 40 years of experience

  • Local knowledge of Cornwall property markets

  • Professional standards and accountability

"

The team at Phillip Martin have been second to none in both the letting and sale of our property. Communication has been superb throughout and advice thoughtful and constructive. They listened with care and guided us through the process with a friendly approach. We would highly recommend. A particular mention to the professionalism and warmth of both Holly and Aaron.

"

Great service start to finish from everyone I dealt with. Calls always returned, regular updates along the way. Elowen in particular went the extra mile helping to find an independent removal company when mine could not make the revised date. Very friendly & professional I really feel they helped keep everything moving.

"

James and his team handled a complex sale (house and adjacent land owned by a third party) with great professionalism and innovation and determination to secure our sale. He was also cognisant of our time scales in that we had not secured an onward purchase or rental property. James is an extremely approachable agent who always worked with us to successfully achieve our goals and certainly went ‘the extra mile’ when required. We cannot recommend him highly enough.

"We were so pleased with all the correspondence with Phillip Martin and you all certainly delivered a very professional and friendly service. We would particularly like to thank you for all your personal correspondence. It went above and beyond and we are truly grateful.  As I mentioned before we have only ever bought two houses and they were both through Phillip Martin. We will certainly use you guys in the future!"

"

Very efficient and personable service helped us find a perfect place. Trustworthy and effective. Thank you.

I recently sold a property through Philip Martin. The agent used throughout was Sean. He was knowledgeable & well informed and happy to answer any questions or queries. Then as we negotiated on the sale and proceeded through to completion he was always very quick and precise in communicating any updates. Highly recommended.
