The name Wilkins Vardy has been a recognised brand in Chesterfield since doors first opened in 1970, becoming one of the most trusted and well respected businesses in the region.
Whilst growing up in Chesterfield, Wilkins Vardy was always the go to agency for any of my friends and family. Little did I know that in
years to come, I would be responsible for managing this fantastic business.
Professionalism, consideration and knowledge have been at the forefront of everything I have done in my working life, and these are values that have always been clear to see at Wilkins Vardy.
Whilst the industry of estate agency is moving at a quicker pace than ever before, with huge advances in technology and marketing, these core values are still at the very heart of everything we deliver on a day to day basis.
Moving home can be the most stressful of times, but we excel in providing guidance and care when it is needed most. Whilst the tools we have at our disposal get more and more sophisticated, we still operate on similar principles than those which were set in 1970, to give a personal and professional service at all times.
I am extremely proud of our heritage, and feel that our three branches offer unparalleled service in the local market. Our team of experienced and professional staff, featured below, are here to help you achieve your goals and fulfil your dreams.

We wanted to purchase a house in Brimington ( my sister Jay Judge , and my autistic daughter) we found the most lovely little cottage house . It was a dream house to us . We offered the price wanted the house knowing it needed a roof . We were told we had to sell our home first , in November, we put our house on the market , two weeks ago in March we sold our house , the dream house, was still available. My daughter had been looking at this house on line everyday, weeks and saving her money buying items her room. So we made another offer and was told no , to cut the long story short we were then told there’s no way the vender would sell to us because we have dogs , and rabbits . ( she lives next door . ) Apparently the vendor told the estate agent this in November but they weren’t honest about it with us, rabbits might attract rats ! And our dogs may bark . If you had been honest from the beginning , we could have told you that we have not had currently got rats and haven’t had any sign of rats or ever had rats . Our dogs may bark and has been under training so they don’t bark again this could have been explained , we could have also looked at other properties that may have been suitable . Instead this company failed to tell us the truth . Not only have they failed to act honourably , they have left my autistic daughter distressed and feeling like she wants to self harm and feels that because we acted honestly we should have been treated the same way , which sadly we weren’t .

The employees themselves were super lovely and very helpful. My only issue is that I had to call 15-20 times before I could actually get through and by the time I did this someone else had already put an offer on the house thus I didn’t get it in the end even though I was told on the...
