About Us

Urban & Country Homes is a huge part of my life, and has been since 2012. Day 1 was incredibly exciting, sat in an outbuilding with my then business partner Linda, 2 computers and enthusiasm the likes of which I have never had for any prior job! With years of experience in the property industry, now was our time to shine, and do it our way!

Day 2 we gained our very first instruction, a semi detached house in Alderney, Poole, and I have never felt so much pride as I did that September day in seeing a shiny new Urban & Country Homes ‘For Sale’ board outside. 1 instruction turned into our very first sale, our 1st ‘For Sale’ board changed to ‘Sold’ in no time. We were off and running!

Our vision was clear. I had the industry experience, Linda also had years of invaluable experience outside of the property profession, a great team.

At the time, there was no other estate agent with the vision that we had, certainly not locally anyway. Our little agency would not be High Street based. We had worked together in a Bournemouth town centre agency for years, the footfall was near on non existent due to the prevalence of the internet. Urban & Country Homes shop front would be online. A radical, innovative approach. We embraced the online tools at our disposal, whilst retaining the personal qualities and local knowledge that had made us so successful when working for other people. This would allow us to sell property anywhere within the BH conurbation, in the early days, we even sold 4 apartments in Southampton!

Our ethos has evolved over the years, 10 years on and Linda has semi retired and I still have the same enthusiasm for providing, what I hope is, outstanding customer care with the focus on recommendation and repeat business.

Our Very 1st Sale! Alderney, Poole

We are not the biggest estate agency, we never want to be. What we do have, however, is a huge heart, in excess of 20 years experience in the local property market, enthusiasm, hunger to push forward and keep improving and a commitment that we will always do our very best.

If you have a property with a BH postcode that you are considering selling or letting, I would love to hear from you. Our innovative approach to marketing will be unlike any other agent. From the one to one personal service, to our YouTube channel Dorset Property TV, we hope that your property journey starts here with Urban & Country Homes, and continues with us for years to come. Urban & Country Homes, your go to, local property experts.

Thank you for reading, I hope to hear from you soon. Louise

We cannot fault the service we have received from this company. We have dealt with them for many years managing a rental property on our behalf and finally completing a successful sale for us. Louise is very understanding of your requirements and took the hassle out of the rentals and sale. We have no hesitation in highly recommending them.

We came across Louise initially when we wanted to buy our first home, she was very thorough with us in explaining any queries we have, she made the whole process run smoothly and as efficiently as she could. She provide services you cannot fault at all, even though it was fairly long chain with so much delay, she helped us chase all other EAs involved in the chain for update. Louise is simply AMAZING at what she does, most importantly she helps make the whole process easier when you have her in your corner.

Louise has sold 3 properties on our behalf over the years. 2 of those she found buyers from just a few days to a couple of weeks. The other one took a little longer but was at a very difficult time in the market due to Covid19 issues. Louise is very knowledgeable of the housing market with many years experience. Louise is friendly and helpful and a delight to deal with. Very professional friendly service and we would not hesitate in recommending Louise of Urban and Country Estate Agents.

I am writing to express my appreciation to Louise and her team at Urban & Country. Having had various levels of involvement with estate agents recently as my son and his girlfriend search for their first home, it was a welcome breath of fresh air to meet someone who actually listened to their needs and cared enough to go the extra mile in helping them secure the house they had been looking so hard to find. The total honesty, care and consideration shown is beyond measure, everything happened quickly and as promised, calls returned, questions answered immediately, time taken to explain, absolutely no misleading conversations had at any point.
