Positive Passionate

When it comes to helping you buy, sell or rent your home, we believe you deserve a service based on trust, integrity and honesty.

Success Happiness

We don't really believe in shouting about ourselves. We prefer to save all of our energy for promoting our client's properties.

Quality Care

When selling your home, we learn everything there is to know about your property and you. Understanding what's important to you lets us tailor the sales campaign to your needs.

People Place

When you are making huge life decisions, you want to feel that you have a friend by your side. Our people are open, friendly and always understanding.

We value our history, but what excites us most is what’s ahead.

Hern & Crabtree is a warm and welcoming independent estate agency with four convenient and accessible offices located in prime areas of Cardiff, the Vale of Glamorgan and surrounding areas. Our highly experienced team specialise in residential sales, lettings, probate, asset management, land and new homes, as well as property management services.

A stylish, understated and trusted brand since 1849, marketing your property with Hern & Crabtree lends value to any transaction. The care we take with our advertising is second to none, and we respect and treat every client’s property with the same consideration as we would our own.

We also understand that behind every property there is a person, and that person will have a unique set of circumstances that must be considered and catered for. Always focused on transparency and communication, everything we do is built around our clients and their needs, giving them not just want they want, but also the peace of mind that the very best result has been achieved on their behalf.

We understand that moving home can be a stressful time, and our approachable and caring team are here to make sure that your experience is handled properly. We treat our clients as though they are our friends and family, perhaps that is why we have successfully helped people move for over 170 years.
