Another year, another Gold award!
Deakin-White Wins Gold Again! Recognised Among the UK's Best Estate Agents for 2027
Another year, another Gold award! Deakin-White Estate Agents is delighted to announce that we have once again achieved Gold status in the prestigious Best Estate Agent Guide 2027, placing us among the highest-performing estate and letting agents in the UK.
We're incredibly proud to receive this recognition again, particularly because it isn't an award that can simply be bought or entered. It is earned through independently assessed performance, measurable results and the quality of service delivered to customers.
What does winning Gold actually mean?
The Best Estate Agent Guide is widely recognised as one of the most comprehensive independent assessments of the UK property industry.
For its 2027 awards, the guide has assessed an incredible 2.4 million property listings, analysing estate and letting agents across the country using extensive property market data from TwentyEA, alongside Google Reviews and customer feedback insights from Leaders.inc's Home Moving Trends Survey, which draws on between 20,000 and 30,000 buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants.
The assessment looks at 14 different performance criteria, including:
- The number and percentage of new properties instructed.
- Growth in local market share.
- The number of properties successfully sold or let.
- Asking prices compared with achieved sale prices.
- The percentage of properties withdrawn from the market.
- Sales falling through before exchange.
- How quickly properties are sold or let.
- How efficiently transactions progress to completion.
- Customer satisfaction, Google ratings and review sentiment.
It is a thorough assessment of how estate agents actually perform, rather than simply how they market themselves.
Why is a Gold award so special?
Gold is the highest performance level awarded within the Best Estate Agent Guide.
It recognises agencies that demonstrate exceptional results, including selling or letting properties more quickly than competitors, achieving outstanding asking-price-to-sale-price ratios and delivering an excellent standard of customer service.
In other words, it recognises the things that matter most when choosing an estate agent: getting the best possible result, progressing your move efficiently and providing the support you deserve throughout the process.
A fantastic achievement for the whole Deakin-White team
As an independent, family-run estate agency, we have always believed that successful estate agency is about much more than putting a property on the market.
It's about understanding our local communities, knowing our buyers and sellers, providing honest advice, creating demand for our clients' properties and working tirelessly to get transactions over the line.
This award is recognition of the hard work, commitment and professionalism of our entire team across our offices, and of the trust our clients place in us every day.
We would also like to thank all our customers who have taken the time to leave us reviews and recommend us to friends and family. Your support means a great deal to us.

Choosing the right estate agent can make a significant difference to your moving experience and, ultimately, the result you achieve.
