Fazakerley Sharpe is an established firm of estate agents in Wigan, providing professional property sales services across the residential, commercial and rural markets. Based in Wigan since 1931, we bring longstanding local knowledge and wider property expertise to every instruction.
For homeowners looking to sell, our service covers the process from an initial free, no-obligation market appraisal through to marketing, viewings and progressing an agreed sale. We also handle commercial and rural property sales, with each instruction managed according to the property and market involved.
Our team combines traditional personal service with professional property marketing, giving sellers a local point of contact throughout their sale.
Our Sales Services
Fazakerley Sharpe provides property sales in Wigan for homeowners, commercial property owners and rural landowners.
Free Market Appraisal
For residential sellers, we begin with a free, no-obligation market appraisal. This allows us to assess the property, discuss your plans and advise on its proposed position within the market.
Photography & Sales Particulars
Once instructed, we prepare your property for sale with professional photography and detailed sales particulars. Your property is then promoted through the Fazakerley Sharpe website and leading property portals, including Rightmove, Zoopla and OnTheMarket.
Enquiries & Viewings
Our team manages enquiries from prospective buyers and conducts property viewings. We remain in contact with you as interest develops, providing a consistent point of contact throughout the marketing of your property.
Commercial & Rural Sales
Alongside residential sales in Wigan, our experience extends to commercial and rural property. This broader property expertise allows us to handle instructions that require a different approach from a standard residential sale.
Professional Property Marketing
The way your property is presented can influence the interest it receives once it reaches the market. Our sales service therefore includes the preparation and marketing needed to put your property in front of prospective buyers.
Professional photography is used within our sales particulars to provide a clear presentation of the property. Listings are promoted through our own website alongside Rightmove, Zoopla and OnTheMarket, giving properties visibility across the major online channels used by buyers.
Enquiries & Viewings Handled
Our involvement continues after the property is advertised. Fazakerley Sharpe manages enquiries and viewings on your behalf, allowing interested buyers to deal directly with our team while we keep you updated.
Marketing Tailored to the Property
Different properties require different approaches to marketing. Our experience across residential homes, commercial premises and rural property allows us to consider the audience for each instruction rather than applying the same approach to every sale.
Local Property Expertise In Wigan
Fazakerley Sharpe has worked within the Wigan property market since 1931. The business remains family owned today and is headed by Jack Sharpe, a Chartered Surveyor and fifth-generation member of the family.
Our longstanding presence in Wigan gives us an established understanding of property across the town and surrounding areas. That local experience is supported by our current involvement in property sales, lettings, management and professional surveying work.
A Property Consultancy
As a property consultancy as well as an estate agency, our expertise extends across residential, commercial and rural property. This gives sellers access to a team with a broader understanding of property matters where an instruction requires knowledge beyond the marketing of a home.
Owners of rural property can also access our rural estate and property management services, while those considering renting out a property can speak to our lettings and management team.
Why Sell Your Property With Fazakerley Sharpe?
Selling a property requires an estate agent who understands the local market and remains involved throughout the instruction. Fazakerley Sharpe combines more than 90 years of history in Wigan with an active role in the property market today.
Support From Day One
Our residential sales service provides sellers with support from the first market appraisal onwards. We prepare and advertise the property, handle enquiries, conduct viewings and maintain communication as the sale progresses.
Beyond the Residential Market
Our wider commercial and rural experience also means Fazakerley Sharpe can assist owners selling property outside the residential market. Rather than operating solely as a residential estate agency, we work across several areas of property from our Wigan office.
Five Generations, RICS Standards
The business has remained family owned across five generations. Personal service and longstanding client relationships continue to form an important part of how we work, supported by the professional standards expected of an RICS-regulated property consultancy.
Commercial & Rural Property Sales
Fazakerley Sharpe’s sales expertise extends beyond homes. We work with owners looking to sell commercial property and rural property across Wigan and the wider North West.
Commercial Property
Commercial property requires an approach that reflects the premises, its use and the market in which it is being offered. Our wider commercial property experience allows us to support owners through the sales process and market available opportunities to prospective purchasers.
Rural Property
Rural property has also formed an important part of Fazakerley Sharpe’s work throughout the firm’s history. Our rural expertise covers property sales alongside estate and property management, valuations, landlord and tenant matters and planning and development.
This means landowners can speak to a team familiar with the wider considerations surrounding rural property rather than approaching the sale as an isolated transaction.
Arrange A Free Market Appraisal
If you are considering selling your home in Wigan, Fazakerley Sharpe offers a free, no-obligation market appraisal.
Our team will discuss the property and your plans before advising on its proposed marketing. If you decide to proceed, we can then prepare the property for sale and begin promoting it to prospective buyers.
Commercial and rural property owners can also contact our Wigan office to discuss a potential sale and the service required.
A sales market appraisal is different from a formal professional valuation. Fazakerley Sharpe also undertakes formal valuations in accordance with RICS guidance for purposes including probate, Capital Gains Tax, matrimonial matters, sale and purchase. If you require a formal valuation rather than an appraisal for a proposed sale, tell our team when you make your enquiry so that we can direct you to the appropriate service.
Estate Agents In Wigan FAQs
How do I choose an estate agent in Wigan?

How much does it cost to sell my property with Fazakerley Sharpe?
Sales fees can depend on the property and the instruction involved. We can explain the applicable costs when discussing your property and the service required, rather than quoting a general fee that may not apply to your sale.
How quickly can you sell my property?
Property sales do not have a fixed timescale. The time required can be affected by the property, market conditions, buyer interest and how the transaction progresses after a sale is agreed. Our team will keep you informed as your instruction moves forward.
