We were very glad we did! Jaine and her team at Whitfield were exceptional in helping us sell. They gave us great advice and went out of their way to ensure every step of the process was completed. Their communication and response was brilliant. All we can say is that if you decide to sell your house with Whitfield's, you will be in very good hands.

From the very start they were very professional with good advice on how we should market our property and the value we should expect.
Based on this good start we listed our property with them and were not disappointed. Their marketing of our home was very accurate and the video that accompanied the online pictures was excellent and added a further useful dimension to the promotion of the house.
They worked really hard on our behalf, managed every viewing and provided prompt and constructive feedback.
Once we had a suitable buyer Nicola took over and drove the process to exchange through all the complexities and usual hurdles that a chain presents. We felt they were 100% on our side and working to make the sale happen.
We would certainly recommend them to anyone selling their home in the Wiltshire area. Thank you Jaine, Hetty and Nicola - all your hard work was most appreciated.

Naively, we initially listed our house with a “cheaper” agent. It soon became apparent that this agent was doing very little other than listing the property on Rightmove, and didn’t have a clear marketing strategy to actually get our house sold.
At this point, we approached Jaine again, and she had our house listed in no time. We immediately felt like we were in safe, professional and proactive hands with Jaine and her team. Jaine and Hetty led proceedable viewings and provided very prompt feedback after each one.
We soon received an offer and were handed over to Nicola, who handles sales progression. Again, Nicola was super efficient and made the process straightforward, but above all, she was always available to answer any questions in a timely manner.
I couldn’t recommend Jaine and her team more—they truly are property experts. They’ll be honest that they’re not the cheapest, but in reality, the tiny percentage difference you pay will pay dividends in the end. Whitfields are certainly worth that little bit extra.
A big thank you to Jaine and the team.

Quarterly property review for #Corsham & #Melksham (SN12 & SN13)
The first quarter of 2026 has provided an interesting snapshot of the property market across Melksham and Corsham. Using data from Rightmove covering the period from 1st January to 31st March 2026, we can see that the local market has remained active despite ongoing global events and economic uncertainties.
Market Activity in Numbers
Across the SN12 and SN13 postcode areas, a total of 335 properties were launched onto the market during the first three months of the year.
In addition, 222 properties have been marked as under offer, representing an overall success rate of 66%. This figure may also include homes that were originally listed before January but found buyers during the quarter. However, it still provides a useful benchmark for overall market performance and buyer activity across both towns.
Our Results
At Whitfields Property Experts, we are extremely proud to report that our percentage of sales agreed compared to new instructions during the first quarter of 2026 is 100%.
That’s 100% success, which we believe demonstrates why being the “top agent” for the number of listings is not always the most important measure of performance.
In both Melksham and Corsham, we currently rank as the third-placed agent on Rightmove for the number of instructions. This reflects our long-standing philosophy of prioritising service and results over sheer volume, rather than chasing bragging rights for having the highest number of listings.
While some agencies focus on listing as many homes as possible, we believe that a more attentive and personalised approach consistently delivers the best results for our clients, both in terms of service and the price achieved.
So how does this compare with the performance of other agents across the two towns?
Comparing Agent Performance
Looking more closely at the figures highlights an interesting pattern.
In Melksham:
• The busiest agent for new instructions achieved 67% under offer
• The second busiest agent achieved 69% under offer
In Corsham:
• The highest instructing agent achieved 69% under offer
• The second placed agent achieved 77% under offer
While these are respectable results, they still sit below our 100% sales success during the same period.
The Challenge of High-Volume Agencies
Some of the busiest agents in the area are currently handling up to 100 properties online at any one time, either listed for sale or already under offer. In many cases these agencies operate with similar staffing levels and resources to ourselves.
It is therefore not surprising that we often hear from disgruntled sellers who have previously used other agents. One of the most common complaints about estate agents in general is lack of communication.
Lower fees are often the reason sellers choose a high-volume agent. However, if an agent cannot dedicate sufficient attention to your property, the final result may actually leave you with less money in your pocket.
Many of our 2026 sales have gone to “best and final offers”, often achieving above the asking price. While paying an additional 0.5% in fees might represent around £2,000, achieving £5,000 or more above the asking price clearly leaves the seller in a stronger overall position.
By comparison, paying a lower fee for a property that sits unsold and becomes stale on the market can ultimately be far more costly than investing in the right representation from the outset.
Selling your most valuable asset should never feel like listing a used car online. It deserves professional guidance, careful marketing and consistent communication throughout the process.
Our Approach: Service Over Volume
At Whitfields, we are very aware that maintaining a manageable number of properties allows us to deliver the personal service and communication that sellers need during the moving process.
Our focus has always been on quality of service and achieving the best possible price rather than simply increasing the number of listings, ensuring that every client receives proper guidance, regular updates and proactive, honest advice from instruction through to completion.
The results from the first quarter of 2026 suggest that this approach is working well for us — and, most importantly, for our sellers.
Looking Ahead
With the traditionally busy spring and early summer market now underway, buyer demand remains strong across both Melksham and Corsham despite ongoing global uncertainty.
Correctly marketed homes that are sensibly priced and well presented continue to attract strong levels of interest and competitive offers. Many of our recent sales have progressed to “best and final offers”, resulting in achieved prices above the initial asking price.
If you are considering selling your home during 2026 and would like a clear, honest view of the current market, we would be delighted to help.

💬 Will My Home Go Above Asking Price? 🏡
A question that many sellers ask —"Will my home go above asking price?" 🤔
While there’s no one-size-fits-all answer, and of course all sellers want this outcome, here are a few factors that can influence whether your property may go above asking price:
Market Conditions 📊 – In a seller's market with high demand and low inventory, it’s more likely that buyers will bid above the asking price. This is common in busy seasons like spring when more buyers are out looking.
Location, Location, Location 🌍 – If your property is in a sought-after area with great transport links, schools, and amenities, it could attract multiple offers, pushing the price above asking.
Property Condition 🧽 – Homes that are well-maintained and beautifully staged tend to attract more interest and may even result in competitive bidding. Presentation matters!
Unique Features ✨ – Standout features like a large garden, modern kitchen, or spectacular views can make your home more desirable, leading to potential bidding wars.
However, it’s SO important to set a realistic price to start with. Pricing your property competitively ensures you’re attracting the right buyers, and if the market is right, you might just see multiple offers above your asking price. 🙌

Question for you!
Are you getting the fast contact you deserve?
If it takes several days for an agent to reply and book in to visit your home.... how quick are they going to be for buyers enquiring on your house? How responsive will they be with you if you use them for your sale?
We WILL respond to ALL enquiries on the same day! (Even the weekends!)

💭 Feeling Stressed About Selling Your Home? Here’s How to Overcome It 🏡
Selling your home can feel overwhelming—between prepping, showings, negotiations, and paperwork, it’s easy for stress to creep in. But don’t worry, you’re not alone! Here are a few ways to manage the stress and stay calm throughout the process:
Stay Organised 🗂️ – Create a checklist of tasks to stay on top of everything. Breaking it down into manageable steps can ease the pressure.
Get Help from a Professional 🤝 – Work with an experienced estate agent (like Whitfields!) who can guide you through the process and offer support along the way.
Don’t Rush ⏳ – Take your time to make decisions. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, it’s okay to take a step back and breathe.
Prepare Your Home 🧹 – A little decluttering and staging goes a very long way in making your home more appealing to buyers, reducing stress when the viewings start!
Keep Communication Open 📞 – Don’t hesitate to ask questions! Clear communication with your agent, buyer, and solicitor will keep things running smoothly.
Focus on the Big Picture 🌟 – Remember why you’re selling—whether it’s a bigger home, a new chapter, or a fresh start. That vision will help keep the stress in perspective.
Selling your home doesn’t have to be a stressful experience. We're here to help make the process as smooth as possible! Let’s chat and take some of that stress off your shoulders. 💬 ... See MoreSee Less
