Our history

The first Intercounty office opened its doors above a sweet shop in Saffron Walden in 1991.

Today Intercounty is an award winning estate agent with 10 local offices, helping you buy, sell, let and rent in the local Essex area. 

First beginnings

The first Intercounty office opened its doors above a sweet shop in Saffron Walden in 1991 (a thriving market town in Essex recently voted one of the best places to live it the country). In the early days the business concentrated predominantly on the sale of local homes.

Building the brand

Following a successful few years it was soon time to open a second office in the bustling market town of Bishops Stortford, just 12 miles to the south of Saffron Walden in East Hertfordshire.

In 1998 the business gradually grew to 5 offices covering East Hertfordshire and West Essex and in 2005 residential lettings and mortgage advice were added Intercounty's range of services.

Intercounty Lettings and property management

Intercounty has continued to expand the lettings side of the business through mergers and acquisitions including the building of a bespoke and dedicated property management and customer services centre.

Our property management services range from one off landlords to institutional portfolios specialists giving advice to all our investors.
