Stroud-based estate agent, Whitaker Seager has won a British Property Award for the second successive year.

The firm picked up the award for Painswick and Nailsworth, for its outstanding customer service.

Throughout the judging period, the team showed a high level of customer and was identified as 'going the extra mile'.

Liz Whitaker-Street, co-founder of Whitaker Seager, said: "This accolade is something for our team to be very proud of and not only highlights our success within the industry, but our expertise in the local property market. Achieving gold will give our clients even more confidence in our service and capabilities."

Established only three years ago by Liz Whitaker-Street and Amy Seager, who had previously spent a combined total of 35 years working at Hamptons International, this latest award is one of many already achieved by the company.

The British Property Awards are an industry insight into the level of service provided around the UK and an opportunity for independent estate agents to see how they compare against national and regional competitors.

Whitaker Seager has been shortlisted for more national awards, with the winners set to be announced later in the year.
