About Me

Your Local Burnley Property Expert


I'm Matt Hargreaves, founder and owner of Burnley Sales & Lettings, and I've been helping people in Burnley with their property needs for over fifteen years. When I started this business, I had one simple goal: to provide honest, reliable service to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent property in our town.



My Journey in Burnley Property


Born and raised in Burnley, I know this area like the back of my hand. I've watched neighbourhoods change, seen new developments spring up, and helped countless families find their perfect home. After working for several larger estate agents early in my career, I realised that what Burnley really needed was a more personal approach to property services.


That's why I founded Burnley Sales & Lettings in 2009. I wanted to create an estate agency that actually listens to people, understands their needs, and goes the extra mile to help them achieve their property goals.



What Sets Me Apart as a Burnley Estate Agent


Working as an estate agent in Burnley has taught me that every property transaction is unique. Whether you're a first-time buyer looking for your starter home, a growing family needing more space, or an investor seeking rental opportunities, I take the time to understand exactly what you're looking for.


I specialise in both sales and lettings across Burnley and the surrounding areas. Over the years, I've built strong relationships with local solicitors, surveyors, and mortgage brokers, which means I can often fast-track transactions and solve problems before they become major headaches.



My Approach to Lettings in Burnley


As one of the established lettings agents in Burnley, I've seen how the rental market has evolved. Today's tenants expect more, and quite rightly so. I work closely with landlords to ensure their properties meet high standards, while also making sure tenants feel supported throughout their tenancy.


I handle everything from finding quality tenants and conducting thorough referencing to managing maintenance issues and ensuring all legal requirements are met. My goal is to make the lettings process as smooth as possible for both landlords and tenants.



Local Knowledge That Makes a Difference


Having lived in Burnley all my life, I understand the local market better than most. I know which streets are most popular with families, where young professionals prefer to live, and which areas offer the best investment potential. This local knowledge is invaluable when you're making one of the biggest financial decisions of your life.


I'm also actively involved in the local community. I support several Burnley charities and regularly attend local business networking events. It's important to me that Burnley Sales & Lettings contributes positively to our town.



Why Choose Burnley Sales & Lettings


When you work with me, you're not just getting another estate agent in Burnley - you're getting someone who genuinely cares about achieving the best outcome for you. I pride myself on being approachable, honest, and always available when you need advice or support.


I don't believe in high-pressure sales tactics or making promises I can't keep. Instead, I focus on providing clear, honest advice based on current market conditions and my extensive experience in Burnley property.


Whether you're looking to sell your home, find your next property, or explore lettings options, I'm here to guide you through every step of the process. I understand that moving home can be stressful, which is why I work hard to make the experience as straightforward and stress-free as possible.
