Leonard James Property

Leonard James Property, estate agency across Norfolk and Suffolk

Leonard James Property is an independent estate agency whose stated coverage spans Norfolk and Suffolk. Its activity is split between residential work (sales and lettings) and commercial property, to which it adds a property development arm. The agency presents itself as local and independent, and describes its offer around expert advice, a single point of contact for each client and active progression of sales through to completion.

The commercial side of the business is set out in some detail: sales, lettings, specialist commercial sales, lettings and management, and non-domestic EPC assessments. On the residential side the agency lists sales and lettings, alongside local market expertise and professional photography among the elements of its service.
