Services
Park & Bailey Estate agents have been in the business of selling and letting property in Surrey and Sussex since 1953, making us one of the longest established estate agents in the area with a local network of 5 offices. Our team of highly experienced and professional staff really set us apart from other firms of estate agents.
I started my career at the Coulsdon branch as a Trainee Negotiator in 2013, being promoted to Sales Manager over the seven years I spent with them. I have worked for Park & Bailey as a Senior Sales Consultant since 2006 having previously worked for many years as a fashion retail area manager. I pride myself on my professionalism, experience & knowledge of the local market, being born and raised, as well as working in the area. I am the newest full-time recruit at Park & Bailey Caterham, joining in 2020.
Since 1953 Park & Bailey have been a dynamic and forward thinking modern estate agency with strong beliefs in combining excellent customer service with a pro-active and powerful marketing strategy. One of the most important aspects of any business is the staff and here at Park & Bailey we are proud of our team with the experience and knowledge they are able to offer all our customers.

I purchased my house through Park and Bailey some years ago and was very pleased with their service. I have just had the need for a valuation, prior to a refurbishment and asked if they could advise on finished value. One of their team came, listened carefully to our plans and gave expert feedback and opinions on finished value. Once finished I will be selling through these guys because they clearly know the local area and are very professional. I was very impressed with them all over again.

We were moving across the country, during a pandemic, with a baby. We needed to leave our property in the hands of someone reliable and trustworthy. The team at Park & Bailey were exceptional from start to finish, taking so much stress out of our situation. Not only did they manage to sell our property for a good price at a time when the market wasn't on our side, they did so with professionalism and efficiency.
The whole team were friendly throughout, despite being under a lot of pressure themselves at the time. They were quick to respond to queries and kept us informed every step of the way. Special mentions to Mark, who bent over backwards to get the sale and look after the property, and Ginette, who negotiated a tricky chain to get it through in the end. And thank you to Chris and everyone else in the team. We seriously cannot thank you enough.

I used Park & Bailey (Caterham on the hill) for the sale of my house. After having suffered other estate agents I found this team a breath of fresh air. I received a polite, professional, and attentive service from start to finish. The work provided by the progression department is second to none. Ginette kept the solicitors under control and the entire process on track, a service worthy of the fee in itself. If you are buying and selling property, this office comes Highly Recommended.

We are completing on our first property buy tomorrow. P&B have been exceptional from start to finish. They were always there before us when visiting the property, willing to work around our schedule, and responded to all emails and phone calls with efficiency and professionalism. We have had support at various stages of the process from Luke, Mark, Ginette and Sue - and I couldn't fault any of them.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services and I'm sure we will use Park & Bailey Caterham Hill again in the future. Thanks to everyone there for making this process as smooth and stress-free as possible!

Have had a very good experience with Park & Bailey. We are first time buyers and they have been very helpful, friendly and professional. They were always available to answer questions and have consistently kept us informed with the process. I would highly recommend! Thank you for your help - especially Ginette & Luke!

So happy we used Park & Bailey for the sale of our house. We had been struggling to sell it with another agent so moved over to Park & Bailey and they had it sold within 2 weeks because they had the experience and strategies needed and were not leaving our house sale to luck. After they got us an amazing offer they (in particular, Luke) did everything super speedily and got our sale and purchase completed within 7 weeks of the offer being accepted. They were worth every penny and I cant recommend them enough. Awesome service and a great team! Thank You Guys!

We recently purchased our new home through Park and Bailey in Caterham. The team in the Caterham on the Hill branch were fantastic. Alex and Kay helped us find our new home and kept us informed of everything that was coming on to the market. They got us in as soon as possible to all the properties in our price bracket. They were great to deal with and it really felt like I was chatting with friends! We love our new home and would definitely recommend Park and Bailey to anyone looking for a property in this area.

Park & Bailey should be renamed 'Shark & Bailey'! We were weeks away from exchanging on a house listed with this agent, only to receive a phone call to tell us that a new offer had been accepted by the vendor THREE months after ours had been agreed! We know that gazumping is legal and a reality, but I have not spoken to ONE other agent that has allowed this to happen SO far down the progress of the sale.
It is simply unethical and disgustingly bad practice by this agent and there is a reason why this is actually illegal in Scotland. There should be safeguards put in place in England to protect buyers from sharks like Park & Bailey in the industry. I was shut down immediately by other agents during my house search if the property was under offer, but Park & Bailey clearly continue to entertain other offers after a sale is 'agreed' to earn an extra buck! I would love to see the transcript of this exchange, as I am confident it was encouraged and collusion.

We have just exchanged on a house that Park & Bailey were representing and are over the moon. We were kept up to date and was a relatively quick and well managed process. This is particularly impressive considering the amount of house sales in the market right now, it would be normal to expect standards to slip but we were made to feel important still.
Something I have noticed is that they represent the majority of houses in Caterham and surrounding areas, they get a lot of viewings and houses tend to get an offer quickly. They will be my first people to call when we next sell our house. Thank you to all at Park & Bailey, in particular Mark, Luke, Ginette and Sue who helped us with our purchase.
