Cheffins has bolstered its position as one of the leading estate agents in Newmarket with the hire of Matthew Graham as Senior Valuer.

Matthew joins Cheffins from David Burr in Clare, Suffolk, where he spent over 12 years selling prime properties throughout the region. Prior to this, Matthew worked in Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds with respected local agents. With over 15 years’ experience in selling property, Matthew brings excellent expertise to the office alongside a roster of local connections.

Based at the Cheffins office on Newmarket High Street, Matthew will be focussing on improving Cheffins’ long-term reputation as one of the leading estate agents in Newmarket town centre and the surrounding villages.

Matthew Graham comments:
“I joined Cheffins because I was looking for a new career challenge having been with my previous firm for over a decade, and I will be looking forward to establishing a strong reputation for myself personally and re-enforcing the existing success of the Cheffins brand. I grew up in Newmarket and went to school here. My family are all based here and I played for Newmarket Town Football Club for years, now coaching the Under 13s team in my free time.”

“The Newmarket property market is currently active with successful sales in recent months across all price brackets. Buyers tend to come both from locally and further afield and move to Newmarket and the surrounding villages drawn by the area’s lifestyle, schooling, wonderful countryside and relative value for money in comparison to other parts of East Anglia. The market locally has held relatively firm in light of the economic and political turmoil which has characterised other parts of the property industry and we have found that houses are still achieving healthy prices and strong interest, provided they are priced realistically.”

Cheffins’ estate agency arm has five offices throughout the region, in Cambridge, Ely, Haverhill, Newmarket and Saffron Walden. These work in conjunction with the firm’s rural land advisory, planning, new homes, fine art, antiques and machinery auction divisions.

Bruce King, Partner, comments: “Matthew has an unrivalled understanding of the property market in and around Newmarket, and we are delighted to have him join the Cheffins team. We are looking forward to continuing to grow our presence in Newmarket and the surrounding area and we see the appointment of Matthew as a key part of our expansion.”
