The single aim of the practice is to focus on the successful marketing of residential properties for sale or rent in and around Old Harlow including the town as well as nearby Church Langley, Newhall and Neighbouring villages such as Matching, Hatfield Heath & The Lavers.

We pride ourselves on quality customer care to both vendors, landlords, purchasers and tenants and at H&B we have experienced dedicated teams to look after all your property needs.

Our teams concentrate and comfortably cover the CM5, CM17, CM18, CM19, CM20, CM21 & CM22 post code areas.

The company incorporates all the latest innovations to improve the image of their client£s properties. We digitally produce full colour particulars with internal and external views and we can offer professional photography and virtual lifestyle commentary where requested, floor plans and the arrangement of the necessary EPC ( Energy Performance Certificate) to get your house looking the best before going to the market.

Backed up with our advertising in the local press and full coverage on all of the UK£s major property portals, Howick & Brooker are embracing modern marketing tools such as our online Howick & Brooker property magazine and new look website www.hbproperty.co.uk. We also actively use social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and You Tube to bring even more exposure to our client£s properties.

If you are interested in moving to the Harlow area we would be pleased to answer any questions you may have regarding facilities and amenities available the area.
