I recently purchased a property sold by Robert Williams. Damon and Suzanne were excellent throughout, working hard to move things forward and keeping me informed as the buyer. Their guidance at key points was wise and they gave great recommendations for related services. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend for a sale or purchase. Thank you!

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Robert Williams Estate Agents.
From valuation to completion Damon and Suzanne were exemplary in their communication with us. Feedback from viewings and updates during the sales process came promptly and regularly. We were completely reassured that they were doing their absolute best for us at all times.
Julie Bevan
We bought our first home with Robert Williams and could see the professionalism they had from the get go. So when it came to sell they were the first agents we asked to come and value. Other agents came in at shockingly lower prices and we trusted Robert Williams judgement and sold at a price we were very happy with. As an independent agency you can tell they have more care and investment in your home. A wonderful team of people who always had time to answer your questions. If ever we decide to move house again they will be the first to contact.
Lily Cumming
Zara has been SO incredibly helpful from the first viewing, to us now being a month into renting. Nothing has been too much trouble and she is always quick to respond to emails. Could not be more grateful for how patient and smoothly she handled our moving process. Thank you, Zara!
Alison Boyer
We had a wonderful experience with this agency, which provides fast and efficient service. Agent Madeline was particularly helpful, assisting us in renting a house and completing all the paperwork promptly and smoothly. The agency also offers excellent support during the tenancy period, including a convenient online system for reporting any property issues 24/7. They respond quickly and address concerns efficiently. We highly recommend their services!
Evgenia Vodopianova
Fantastic service. Both Damien and Suzanne were attentive and assuring through the sale, making buying my first home through them a genuine pleasure.
Oscar Chandler
Fantastic estate agent. Damon and Suzanne were extremely helpful in our recent property purchase, liasing with all parties to ensure a fast transaction with minimal issues.
Charles Archer
We highly recomend Robert Williams for the efficient way they advertised and marketed our properties for rental. Madeline and Zara, and everyone in the office, were fantastic to deal with.
It has ensured a very swift handover to new tenants and cut any delays to a minimum.
An excellent and hassle free service and we are very appreciative of their help.
Mark Tyler
Zara was very helpful in getting myself and kids into a property at very short notice. She kept us informed of the situation and rang to give us information at the times she said she would. And if she was unavailable at any point her colleagues were more than happy to help with any inquiries I had. Thankyou madalin, zara and Sarah.
Phil H
Robert Williams was actually our seller's estate agent, but they were so helpful. Suzanne Collins dealt with all our enquiries, smoothing over everything, responding weekends and evening. Her help, and brilliant communication, really helped us get the purchase over the line. Many thanks for all your help Suzanne.
If you’re starting to look for a new home this year, you’ve probably already got a mental checklist.
Location ✔️
Budget ✔️
Number of bedrooms ✔️
But what we’re finding here in the office is that what buyers prioritise is quietly changing.
The “must-haves” of a few years ago aren’t always the same now — and in places like Exeter, lifestyle is playing a bigger role than ever.
So if you’re house hunting in 2026, here are a few things worth keeping firmly on your radar.
🔌 1️⃣ Energy Efficiency Matters More Than Ever
This has moved from “nice bonus” to “serious consideration.”
Buyers are paying much closer attention to:
EPC ratings
Insulation
Double glazing
Boiler age and efficiency
And it’s not just about being eco-conscious — it’s about monthly running costs.
A home that’s cheaper to run is often more appealing than one that simply looks good on paper.
💻 2️⃣ Space That Works for Real Life
The way we use our homes has changed.
Working from home, hybrid schedules and side projects mean buyers are now looking for:
A dedicated office space
Flexible rooms
Quiet corners with good natural light
We often hear:
“We can make it work…”
But in reality, having a space that’s already set up properly makes a big difference day to day.
🌿 3️⃣ Outdoor Space Still Holds Strong
This one hasn’t gone anywhere.
Gardens, patios and even small outdoor areas continue to be high on the wish list.
But it’s not just about size anymore — buyers are thinking about:
How usable the space is
Privacy
Sunlight (south-facing always gets attention ☀️)
A well-presented garden can genuinely change how a home feels.
🚗 4️⃣ Parking = Peace of Mind
Particularly in Exeter, this is a big one.
Off-road parking or a driveway can:
Make daily life easier
Increase long-term value
Help a property stand out quickly
It’s one of those features buyers often don’t fully appreciate… until they don’t have it.
📍 5️⃣ Lifestyle Is Leading the Decision
We’re seeing more buyers choose an area first — and a house second.
Questions we hear all the time:
Can I walk to a good coffee spot? ☕
Are there green spaces nearby? 🌳
What’s the commute actually like? 🚆
Areas like St Leonard’s, Heavitree and Topsham continue to be popular not just because of the homes — but because of the lifestyle they offer.
🔑 6️⃣ Move-In Ready Is More Appealing Than Ever
Not everyone wants a project.
With rising costs and busy lives, many buyers are leaning towards homes that feel ready to go.
That doesn’t mean everything has to be brand new — but clean, well-presented homes with minimal work needed are definitely attracting more attention.
So… What Does This Mean for Buyers?
The definition of a “perfect home” is shifting.
It’s less about ticking a rigid list of features — and more about finding a home that genuinely fits how you live day to day.
And if you’re unsure what to prioritise, that’s completely normal.
Thinking About Buying in 2026?
If you’re starting your search and want a bit of guidance on what to look out for — or what represents good value in the current market — we’re always happy to help.
One of the most common questions we hear when someone is thinking about moving is:
“How long will it actually take to sell our house?”
It’s a completely fair question. Moving home is a big decision, and knowing roughly how long the process might take can make planning everything else much easier.
The honest answer is that every property is different. However, based on what we see day to day here in Exeter, there is a fairly typical timeline most sales tend to follow.
Here’s a realistic look at what the journey often looks like.
