About Us
Spencers New Forest is the leading independent estate agency for the New Forest with a network of offices across the National Park and surrounding areas. We provide an unrivalled service for both vendors and purchasers, having established a strong reputation for a professional, efficient and reliable service along with a friendly approach and extensive, in-depth local knowledge.
Spencers New Forest is owned and run by three directors who have worked in and around the New Forest area for many years. Together we have established a company founded on a shared ethos for a modern, dynamic, forward-thinking estate agency that also encompasses the traditional values of a personal and professional service.
We continually review and respond to the marketplace – an example of this is that we are the only estate agency in the Forest with a dedicated lettings office.
Exemplary local knowledge is key to Spencers New Forest and highly valued by both home owners in a market dominated by character and individual properties, as well as those looking to move to the area. The team lives, loves, enjoys and understands the New Forest. They are members of the local community and among them are parents, cattle breeders, dog owners, horse riders, sailors and cyclists, runners and walkers.
