Davies & Davies

What Davies & Davies does

Davies & Davies is an independent, privately-held UK estate agency founded in 1990 by Justin and Michele Davies in Trowbridge, West Wiltshire. The firm operates physical branches in Trowbridge, Bradford on Avon and Westbury, with an associate office in Mayfair, London, and runs a large dedicated Lettings & Property Management office alongside a specialist Land & New Homes department that serves housebuilders with off-plan sales, site staffing and land disposal. Core offerings are residential sales, fully managed and let-only lettings, and new-build brokerage, supplemented by affiliated conveyancing referrals (averaging £300 per referral) and mortgage referrals via a 177 Mortgages partnership (averaging £350 per referral). The technology stack is conventional for the sector: a PropertyLogic-powered website with an instant online valuation tool, Fixflo maintenance reporting for tenants, portal distribution through RightMove and OnTheMarket, and self-service mortgage and Stamp Duty calculators.

The business model is built on per-transaction commissions, recurring management fees, and per-referral affiliate income. Fully managed lettings are billed monthly at 10% + VAT of rent, generating predictable subscription-like revenue; let-only is charged at 75% of the first month's rent plus VAT (minimum £495 + VAT). Sales commissions are transactional, with volume tied to the UK residential housing cycle in West Wiltshire. Distribution is multi-channel: high street branches, the major property portals, social media, an E-Zine newsletter, and referral partnerships with conveyancers and 177 Mortgages. The firm is a 2026 BEAG winner in both sales and lettings and sits in the BEAG Top 500. Membership in NAEA Propertymark, ARLA Propertymark, The Property Ombudsman, the Guild of Property Professionals, the Land & New Homes Network and the Deposit Protection Scheme provides compliance and trust infrastructure typical of an established regional agency. No external investment, parent company or M&A activity is disclosed.
