Husband and wife team Gary and Nicky Tyman are proud to be breaking the mould of traditional estate agents.

Nicky says "the general public’s perception of estate agents is that little work is done in exchange for a large fee. We are pleased to guarantee that Novahomes is different - a premium service at a budget cost". Nicky puts customer service at number 1 on her agenda and feels that too few companies offer a truly impressive service these days.

With 12 years experience in residential conveyancing, the last 6 of those managing conveyancing and customer care departments, Nicky is perfectly qualified to guide you smoothly through the house-selling process.

Gary’s background is similar but also with 8 years in estate agency and mortgage under-writing. "I'm passionate about property" says Gary "Not only will I find a buyer for your property at the right price, but I will also deliver a very personal service. Once I've carried out a detailed valuation, I work closely with my vendors to produce an appealing brochure, which showcases the most attractive elements of their property. It's important that my customers feel confident in the finished product".

The couple firmly believe that novahomes.co.uk is the future of estate agency.

GARY & NICKY FIGHT FOR CO AWARENESS

Brighouse Estate Agents novahomes.co.uk have joined the campaign to raise awareness about Carbon Monoxide (CO), dubbed the “silent killer”. According to a national survey*, over 70% of homes in the UK do not have a CO alarm.

Stacey Rodgers from Huddersfield lost her 10 year old son Dominic in 2004 in a tragic accident when carbon monoxide fumes leaked into their home from an adjoining property. Stacey later set up the Dominic Rodgers Trust and campaigns tirelessly to raise awareness about this deadly gas and the simple ways to prevent more deaths.

Estate Agent Nicky Tyman decided to find out more after she kept hearing on the news about deaths due to CO poisoning, and contacted Stacey after seeing her on television and in the local media. Stacey says “What novahomes are doing is brilliant, this should encourage other agents think more about their properties and the people in them"

Gary & Nicky, owners of the local agency, have a 2 year old daughter and have smoke and CO alarms in their home. They feel that all properties should be fitted with these basic, but effective devices. From now on, all information packs left with prospective vendors, at the valuation appointment, will include an Information Sheet about the harmful effects of Carbon Monoxide. In addition, the couple have also pledged to provide a free CO alarm to the new owners of each house purchased from them, if the property does not already have one.

Nicky Tyman says “our families and particularly children are so precious and nobody would want to experience what Stacey went through, but so many people aren’t taking these simple steps to protect themselves”.

Testimonials

"On reflection we received more assistance and advice from Novahomes, the agents dealing with the house we were buying. Gary was highly professional and kept on top of the situation entirely, which we cannot say about our agent. I just thought you might like to know - I don’t think, for the kind of service you give, you are charging any where near enough!"

Carol, Halifax

 

 

"We could have saved over £800 if we had sold with novahomes" - Last year we sold our house with a local high street estate agent and then found the property we eventually bought through novahomes. At the time we were looking to sell, novahomes did not operate in our area, and so we missed out!

We feel that the service and assistance we received from novahomes was excellent. We were informed of progress continually and we received more updates and assistance from Gary than from our own estate agent.

Since we have completed our purchase through novahomes, we have recommended Gary to four friends selling their homes, one of which, Gary arranged ten viewings for, and sold within a week! Three of the four properties have already been sold and I will continue to recommend Gary to anyone else selling in the future.

Mr & Mrs Bottomley, Halifax

 

 

“Both of you at Novahomes have been absolutely brilliant. We’re already telling all our friends”.

Jonathan, Brighouse

 

 

“Gary, just a small token of my appreciation (champagne) for all your hard work. Many thanks”.

Shirley, Halifax

 

 

"I had heard of Novahomes, but initially I was hesitant to use an internet based real estate service. However, these reservations proved completely unfounded and I am delighted to report that the experience has been simplicity itself from start to finish. Gary Tyman of Novahomes provided the most professional service package right from valuation through drawing up details to providing feedback on each and every customer viewing. An acceptable offer at a price extremely close to the asking price was achieved within six weeks and Gary has done his utmost to ensure the process was seamless. Novahomes sold my property quickly, efficiently and professionally by offering a great service that suited my circumstances and at a price that suited my pocket".

Sarah, Halifax

 

 

"Gary - Thanks for all your help. It's been much appreciated. I'd
definitely recommend novahomes to anyone selling a property. You've
been great. Thanks Again"

Jill, Halifax

 

 

"The service we received was excellent and more to the point was significantly cheaper than any other agent in the area. Gary carried out the valuation on a Sunday at a time that suited us, and had the property marketed on Rightmove within 24hours. Within three weeks we had five viewings booked and achieved a sale very close to our asking price. Throughout the sale Gary liaised with the solicitors several times a week towards exchange of contracts and updated me regularly. I would definitely use novahomes again and found that the extended opening hours, together with the service provided was outstanding".

Mr Bracewell, Park Road

 

 

"Thanks again for an excellent service in such a difficult market".

A Barron

 

 

"Thanks to both of you for all your efforts and input with our house sales. It really is appreciated. Thanks once again"

The Russells, Northowram

 

 

"Thanks for all you have done for us, we are more than pleased with the service you have provided - we will definitely be happy to recommend Novahomes to our friends".

C Franks, Brighouse

 

 

"Gary and Nicky, thank you for your understanding, patience and good humour. Best Wishes"

S T H, Brighouse

 

 

"Novahomes have dealt with the sale of our house with a professional, courteous and helpful manner throughout the transaction, despite some difficulties encountered. Regular updates by telephone and e-mail were received with full details of any events in the sale, and we would happily recommend them over a traditional estate agent to any person considering selling their home."

Mr A Van de Gevel, Elland

 

 

"When my mother passed away last year, I needed an agent I could trust but not living in Brighouse meant I didn’t know who to instruct to sell Mum’s apartment. Luckily I chose novahomes. Gary and Nicky sold the property in 2 weeks, for a price I was very pleased with. They were happy to ring me with updates on an evening when I was home from work and were especially good at explaining the legal side of things. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the service to others."

Ruth Marchant, Stockport

 

 

"Extremely friendly service and always willing to help. Always seemed to be available, even after leaving messages I was contacted within 15 minutes of my initial call. Any issues were dealt with swiftly. A very proactive approach which helped after being for sale a long time with another agent with no joy.

And to say the price was outstanding for such high service is an understatement, half the price of other agents!"

Mr N Whitaker - Rastrick

 

 

"Well, the sale went through very smoothly and I am just writing to thank you for all your help and support through this. You have both taken so much hassle off me by also being there for the survey and handing the keys over today. Your customer service is brilliant. Thanks again".

CW, Clifton

 

 

"Nicky and Gary - thanks for your help in selling the house. You made it very easy and were good to deal with".

K Bates, Brighouse
