We are
PhilipAlexander
An independent estate agent with an emphasis on providing a tailored and supportive service to people moving in our local community.
Our straightforward, proactive style and personal touch sets us apart from the corporate chain estate agents. Providing excellent service is key for us, borne out by our many 5-star reviews on Google.
PhilipAlexander was co-founded by Phil Wright and Alex Clayton who continue to run the business day-to-day. Established 20 years ago the business is very much rooted in the local community and actively looks for ways to give back. This forms part of our thinking local ethos.
What is thinking local?
Thinking local embodies our approach to doing business. We feel that when you use a local independent business you should be getting something specialised that cannot be offered by large mainstream alternatives.
For us that’s not just detailed knowledge about local property values but knowing the characteristics of different streets, being involved in the local communities, taking the time to understand people’s individual needs and providing a tailored service to every customer.
Our team is encouraged to engage with and get to know our clients to best understand how we can help them and, importantly, add value to their experience of moving home.

A highly professional outfit both in sales and rentals
As a landlord living outside of the UK it is very important to me that I have a good, trustworthy and hassle free relationship with an agent and trust is extremely important living so far away. I have never had any issues with them and would recommend them as a highly professional outfit both in sales and rentals.
Everything you'd hope for in an estate agent
We would absolutely call on PhilipAlexander to sell our flat again and again provided that Elliott Tisdall-Evans had a hand in the sale! More than any other agency we've encountered in the past, we found that Elliott was always responsive, replying within the same hour or as soon as he was able; consultative, presenting both sides; empathetic; helpful and clear in his explanations as to why something was the way it was. He also provided timely and thorough feedback on flat viewings so we were never left wondering. It's everything you'd hope for in an estate agent and Elliott Tisdall-Evans really made the entire process as painless as possible.
A professional job selling our flat despite very difficult circumstances
Rob and Elliott did a very professional job selling our flat in N8, despite very difficult circumstances (Liz Truss, High Mortgage rates etc). It meant that PhilipAlexander actually sold our property three times. They were extremely patient and got there in the end, we certainly feel that they well earnt there commission, and we have zero regrets in choosing them to sell our property.
Using PhilipAlexander was the best decision I made and have not regretted it once
I have been using PhilipAlexander as a managing agent for over 7 years and they have constantly outdone themselves in terms of service. They are incredible and I have felt they have always put my interests first and always looked out for my investment despite the fact I live abroad. They are reliable, nice to deal with, and always get back to me within 12 hours. They also keep my tenants happy too, so they work equally well for both parties. If you are considering PhilipAlexander as your estate agent, do not hesitate. It was the best decision I made and have not regretted it once. They are a great example of what estate agents could be like. Fantastic!
Customer service was second to none
I rented a property from PhilipAlexander for a year and can categorically state that the customer service and manner of the staff were second to none. Nothing was too much trouble, and any issues were dealt with timely and professionally. Highly recommend.
A BIG thank you for helping us over the years
Living overseas, we wanted to know that the management and sale of our property was in safe, responsive and professional hands. We were delighted to have that service taken care of by the PhilipAlexander team - Kalina and Paris were fantastic property managers and Robert and Alex worked around the clock to get our flat sold during the start of a really difficult housing market period (COVID). So a big, BIG thank you for helping us over the years - we're really grateful and would highly recommend your services to anyone.
Robert put in an incredible amount of time and effort during the process
We recently bought a property sold by PhilipAlexander and they were fantastic throughout. As well as being very professional, our agent (Robert) put in an incredible amount of time and effort during the process, something that we found lacking with other estate agents. He was always quick to reply to our queries and made us feel like our custom was appreciated by the company, even when he was dealing with other clients.
Support throughout the process was excellent
I recommend PhilipAlexander for their high quality of service and attention to detail. I’ve just successfully completed sale of my property in North London with Elliott as the Sales Manager. His support throughout the process was excellent at all stages, from initial marketing, through advertising, open day and viewings, offer handling, negotiations, exchange and completion. Communication with myself, buyer, solicitors was always prompt, professional and effective, with the ability to provide sound advice whenever required. Understanding of the market by Elliott, Alex & Phil was also always excellent.
Robert made the entire process very straightforward and easy
We received a professional service from Robert from our first call to completion of agreement. Robert made the entire process very straightforward and easy. I would thoroughly recommend this agency. Extremely helpful that deliver an exemplary service. Fantastic people, great to work with.
His calm actions and negotiation saved the deal falling through at a crucial point
I purchased through PhilipAlexander with Rob Kraushar acting for the seller. He took exactly the right approach with me as the purchaser (persuasive and not pushy). His calm actions and negotiation saved the deal falling through at a crucial point. PhilipAlexander were also instrumental in persuading the seller to appoint a new solicitor who would get things done. Those were two key turning points in the transaction and the deal probably wouldn't have happened had it not been for the steps PhilipAlexander took. Thank you Rob for being so helpful and great to deal with. I'm really overjoyed with my new home!
