Our Story & Local Heritage

Since 1986, Philip Martin has been helping people buy, sell, and let property across Cornwall. What began as a small, locally-focused agency has grown into a fully independent practice offering sales, lettings, valuations, and surveying, while retaining the personal touch that comes from being part of the community we serve.

Our experience is rooted in the local market. Living and working in Cornwall gives us a clear understanding of each area’s character, the needs of buyers and sellers, and the practical considerations that come with property transactions here.
