Selling with Stow
We understand that people decide to sell their homes for all manner of reasons. Work, schools, family, more space, downsizing … the list is extensive. However, all our sellers have one thing in common — they want the process to run as smoothly and quickly as possible, from early viewings to completion of sale. We’re here to make sure that happens. To help you sell the dream of your home, bringing its best features to life, presenting it with panache to a discerning audience and to achieve the best price possible.
The first step to selling your home is establishing what it’s worth. As truly local estate agents with a comprehensive knowledge of the area, we’re perfectly positioned to advise you on what similar properties are fetching nearby and the best approach to pricing your home.
East London is certainly on the up, but there are small nuances from street to street. We’re tuned into these subtleties and can help you navigate them.
Seller Home Prep Guide
We look forward to helping you find the perfect buyer for your home, and have created this guide to help you prepare your property for marketing — for the best results possible.
Calming stress levels
We ensure the stress of selling your home is kept to a minimum. Anxiety is often induced by simply not knowing. We counteract this through good communication, keeping you fully informed and involved every step of the way. Along with smaller details like a voucher scheme for deals on fresh flowers or paint to decorate your home.
The Stow Brothers Approach
Invaluable local expertise
Our knowledge of this corner of East London is unparalleled. We’re proud locals who’ve grown up around here and can point you in the direction of the best places to eat, drink, exercise, shop, learn — and, of course, buy and sell houses.
Being neighbourly. Giving back. Staying green.
The Stow Fund donates a percentage of every fee to local charities, community groups and events. We also regularly sponsor local schools and sports initiatives. Thinking of the bigger picture, we find ways to cut our carbon footprint by walking, cycling, recycling and reducing waste.
Meet our network of buyers
Our team members have been selling properties in and around East London for over 15 years. This level of experience is critical in matching your properties to the current market and identifying the right buyers quickly.
Advertising & Social
We portray our client’s homes to the world with the utmost care and consummate style. More than that, we put them in front of the right audiences through carefully targeted online advertising and social media.

Our local communities
Proud to be making a difference locally.
We don’t just pay lip service about contributing to the local community, we’re a part of it. We love the energy, positivity and diversity of this area — it inspires us every single day. We live here, bring up our children here, support our local shops, cafés, restaurants and tradespeople. We also donate a percentage of every fee to local charities and initiatives through The Stow Fund.
And, of course, we pride ourselves on knowing all the best places to eat, drink and take time out in the area, trade secrets we’re happy to share with you in our lovingly curated ‘Places & Wonders of …’ guide.
Our Stow Local Initiatives + Promises
Cultivating the environment
If you love something, you do your very best to look after it. That’s why we’re taking steps to reduce our carbon footprint and protect the environment. There’s a communal bike (supplied by local cycle shop Racer Rosa) for cycling to appointments. Our offices are full of ivies, ferns, succulents, and other air-purifying plants to freshen the air. We use recycled paper wherever possible, including stock made from former coffee cups. Our promotions have a green focus, with seeds, birdboxes and beehouses as prizes.
Giving back to our area
This is our neighbourhood — 90% of our team are from Waltham Forest & Redbridge or surrounding boroughs. In the past we’ve helped community groups and residents’ associations by sponsoring street parties, clean-ups, and fundraisers. We have a full-time member of staff dedicated to community relations and the Stow Fund, which offers financial and marketing help for local initiatives. We’re determined to make this an even better place for all of us, so if you would like to discuss an opportunity with us, please get in touch.
Making a difference locally
We sponsor all kinds of local charities, religious buildings, schools, fairs, festivals, galleries and sporting events, but we’re always open to new ideas and ways to make a difference in this vibrant corner of East London. Our headline sponsorship is the Walthamstow Garden Party, a five-year partnership to which we’ve donated over £100,000. During the pandemic, we supported many Covid Aid schemes, printing over 70K leaflets for 20+ amazing local voluntary groups to give vulnerable local residents access to community kitchens and voluntary services.
Our Team
Someone once asked us what we look for when we’re recruiting for the Stow Brothers team. It was easier to tell them what we don’t want, which is estate agents. That preconceived notion of the typical ‘sale monster’ in a loud suit really isn’t us. Even though we’ve grown quickly and are now a multi-office company with over 50 staff, we’re still as grounded and unpretentious as ever.
All our team are local, which is important. They either live in the area or have strong connections to it. Which means they are aware of the nuances of the place. Of course, they know the local property market inside-out, but they are also informed about nurseries and groceries, dentists and electricians, transport and gyms. All the granular, important stuff.
“We keep things authentic. We act on our promises and make sure our clients are kept informed every step of the way.”
We’ve grown up around East London, as a business and as people. This is a place packed with colour and character, constantly evolving and always full of surprises (good ones, that is). We keep our ears to the ground, so we are tuned in to property trends and know exactly what’s happening in our neighbourhood.
