A Family Business Built on North East Values
Our mission
After years of working for both large corporate and small independent estate agents across the North East, we, Kevin, Shabnum, Catherine, and Jessica saw a clear need for change. We felt clients were paying thousands in commission for a service that was often impersonal and outdated. We knew there had to be a better way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your property journey questions, answered by your local North East experts.
What's the first step to selling my home with Aycliffe Homes?
The very first step is to book a free, no-obligation valuation. One of our local experts will provide an accurate market appraisal and explain our transparent, fixed-fee selling process so you know exactly what to expect. There's no pressure and no commission!
How long does the selling process typically take?
While every sale is unique, the average time from listing to completion in the UK is around 3-4 months. We expedite this by using professional marketing, proactive communication, and efficient sales progression to ensure a smooth and timely process for you.
Why choose a fixed-fee agent over a commission-based one?
Transparency and savings! With a fixed fee, you know the exact cost upfront, regardless of the final sale price. This often saves our clients thousands of pounds compared to traditional percentage-based commissions, without compromising on service or marketing quality.
Do you offer services for landlords?
Absolutely. We offer a complete property service for landlords, including tenant-find only, full property management, and rigorous tenant referencing. Our goal is to make your property investment as passive and profitable as possible.
How do you help buyers find the right property?
By registering your search with us, we get a deep understanding of your needs. We'll then proactively notify you of new properties, often before they hit the major portals like Rightmove, giving you a crucial head start in your search.
What documents do I need to rent a property?
Typically, you will need proof of identity (like a passport or driving licence), proof of address (utility bill), proof of income (payslips or bank statements), and a reference from a previous landlord or employer. We guide you through every step of the application process.
What areas in the North East do you cover?
While we're based in Newton Aycliffe, our expertise covers the wider North East, including County Durham, Darlington, Teesside, and surrounding areas. Our deep-rooted local knowledge is one of our greatest assets for all our clients.
Are there any hidden fees or commission charges?
No. We pride ourselves on integrity. All our fees are available on our website and we NEVER charge commission. Our fixed-fee approach means you know the full cost upfront, with no surprises when your sale completes.
