One's home is one's castle, as the proverb goes.

And when it comes to your castle - whether you're looking for a cosy 'forever' home, or if you're looking to sell and move on - it's fair to say that the tricky process ought to be made as easy as possible.

It's why we're pleased to announce our partnership with Julian Wadden - an independent local estate agent who does just that.

With 60 staff across four South Manchester branches (Stockport, Heatons, Marple, and Didsbury), Julian Wadden combines formidable property acumen with warmth and accessibility.

They can help buyers, renters, sellers and landlords navigate the tricky property market, all with a 'people first' approach which sets them apart from national companies.

"We do things differently", the company says. "From the way we market properties to our customer service, everything is done to maximise your property value and experience.

"Our team of 60 is always on-hand to assist, and each member brings a specialist skillset that you won't find anywhere else."

And it's not just the combined power of 60 property brains that Julian Wadden has to offer - the team can also harness cutting-edge technology to help market properties, to ensure homes are seen and found as quickly as possible.

Above all, the company does so with a local focus. Julian Wadden's four offices in the area are accessible to all, and visitors are welcome to simply walk in for guidance or queries.

As a Julian Wadden spokesperson said:

The staff are themselves local residents, and can therefore offer more personalised advice when it comes to specific areas, right down to street level; whether it's the Marple countryside, the leafy Heatons, trendy Stockport, or vibrant Didsbury.

As one customer on TrustPilot writes:

"The team at Julian Wadden were great. From initial contact through to completion they were on hand and very proactive. They managed the majority of the process and was excellent throughout. The selling process was easy and the big difference with them was post offer accepted they continued to make sure things moved as quickly as possible with regular calls to all parties involved."

"We pride ourselves on our customer service and people-first approach", a spokesperson said, and it's certainly true that the company aims to be as integrated into the community as possible.

This much is true not just in the customer service, but also in the company's community support generally.

For example, Julian Wadden has sponsored the Stockport International Young Musicians Competition - a contest for young musicians aged 17-24, aimed at celebrating and developing the next generation of top musicians.

And the business is also a sponsor of CentrePoint, a youth homelessness charity which supports around 14,000 young homeless people every year.

Julian Wadden also works closely with its sister company, Thornley Groves, another independent Manchester-based estate agent which share's Julian Wadden's spirit and aims.

And they have links with conveyancers, home removals, and anti-money laundering companies - among other partners - to make moving or selling that bit easier.

And in recent exciting news for landlords and investors, Julian Wadden has just launched its Investors Club.

The club will give exclusive access to investment deals to those landlords and investors who are working with Julian Wadden.
