Local Knowledge - Better Results
One of the founder members of the firm, Martyn is a hugely experienced estate agent having joined the industry in 1986. He has lived in the area throughout his career and has a deep knowledge of all types and styles of property throughout the region.
Martyn is responsible for market analysis and the overall direction, business development and management of the company. He works in close conjunction with our colleagues at Mayfair Office on new marketing initiatives and PR but retains a high profile presence in Rye operating very much at the sharp end of the business on a day to day basis.
Outside interests include keeping fit at the gym, squash and travelling.
After 35 years in the business, there isn’t much Jason hasn’t seen and done! He has lived in East Sussex all his life and has an in-depth knowledge of the area; invaluable when matching people to property. After Plumpton Agricultural College, a career in the country property market seemed a natural progression.
Jason has also developed our specialist Coastal department, which has produced some outstanding results over the last 20 years by exposing some highly individual and unique properties to the London market.
Outside interests include classic cars, tennis, photography and skiing. Jason is also an Advanced Scuba Diving Instructor and has enjoyed extensive travel adventures throughout Southern and Eastern Africa, America, Canada, India, Sri Lanka and New Zealand.
Our Approach
Phillips and Stubbs is an independent, regional property consultant with a national profile based in the Ancient Town of Rye, East Sussex.
Our expert sales and lettings teams have an intimate knowledge of the local areas along the historic coastline stretching from Dungeness to Hastings and across the low lying expanses of Romney Marsh to the rolling countryside of the High Weald.
Our Credentials
In an industry undermined by poor service standards and unscrupulous agencies, it is not hard to understand why estate agents in general have a bad reputation.
Whether selling or letting your property, the importance of using a professional, regulated and established estate agency is, therefore, paramount.
Our Culture & Vision
We know the local market and people like no other. Experience, determination, insight, innovation, energy and an entrepreneurial spirit allied to hard work are the core ingredients of our business. The team share a common vision of excellence and are motivated by a passion engaging people with property.
Our entire focus is on getting the best result for our client and ensuring the process runs as smoothly as possible along the way by maintaining regular contact and using our experience to overcome situations that need careful handling.
The London connection – Mayfair Office
PR is a very important part of any marketing plan and Mayfair Office is home to our very active PR department, which provides a service that enables us to punch well above our weight in the national media and to connect with potential buyers. The property portals do a job but primarily for people who know what they are looking for and where.
The power of the PR department lies in generating an editorial feature on an individual property in one of the national broadsheet newspapers or lifestyle magazines that catches the attention of a buyer who had not previously considered this area.
The Team at Phillips & Stubbs
Regarded as a major force in the area, Phillips & Stubbs is an energetic, forward-thinking and dynamic firm providing a creative and highly effective service in contemporary estate agency based on traditional values of integrity, professionalism and straight talking advice firmly rooted in the delivery of outstanding customer service.
We pride ourselves on our commitment to excellent customer service
I cannot recommend Ed and his team highly enough. When I was looking to relocate to Rye they were so very helpful, professional and on the ball. Ed in particular took great care and attention to ensure we found the perfect property. I wouldnt look at using another agent.
Totally professional and highly recommend
Cannot stress enough how professional Martyn Stubbs and his team are. Caring, considerate and supporting through the stresses of moving. I have no hesitation in recommending Phillips and Stubbs. Thank you to the team for a stress free transaction in speedy time. Mark Raczkowski.
