Serving Emsworth and the surrounding coastal and Downland villages, Borland & Bound Independent Estate Agents are dedicated to providing a professional, personal and friendly service of the highest quality.
Borland & Bound Estate Agents was established in 1995, when business partners Steven Borland and Alan Bound became increasingly convinced that people were looking to move away from the somewhat impersonal, corporate style of agency to a more specialised, independent and local approach. They also wanted to be able to focus purely on property, and give honest, impartial advice which they felt could not be done if they offered other services, such as ‘financial services’.
Launching a new estate agency in 1995, when many were still recovering from the property market crashes of the late 80s and early 90s, did raise a few eyebrows at the time! Starting with one property on their books, Steven Borland and Alan Bound were convinced this was the perfect time to open, and that they were in a prime location to do so. Now all they needed to do was work hard and be consistent!
As soon as 1999, just four years after opening, Alan Bound's and Steven Borland's instincts, approach and ethos proved to be a popular one when they were recognised for their superb service by their clients, and won an award for best Independent Estate Agent for the South West England region.
In 2001 Borland & Bound Lettings also opened, specialising in a range of property management services including lettings and rental. 2003 saw the lettings and residential management division expanding, and moving their operations to bigger premises in Emsworth High Street.
With many years agency experience between them, Steven Borland and Alan Bound guarantee an honest and forthright service based on professionalism, integrity, service and local knowledge.
