Estate Agents in Prescot

New office, same promise: one person, not a call centre feel

Our Prescot branch opened its doors on Old Lane in Eccleston Park in May 2025, but “new branch” doesn’t mean new to the job. Every member of our team is backed by the same Whitegates promise that’s built the business elsewhere: one dedicated local agent for every client, from valuation to completion, not a call centre where you explain your situation to someone new every time you ring.

Local from day one

We’re based in Eccleston Park, and cover Prescot, Knowsley Village and Rainhill, across the L34 and L35 postcodes. Being newer to this particular office doesn’t mean starting from zero on local knowledge, our team has been valuing, selling and letting property across this part of Knowsley and St Helens borders for years, and we brought that experience with us when we opened here.

What being new does mean is momentum: we’re actively building our presence street by street across Prescot, Eccleston Park, Knowsley Village and Rainhill, and getting to know exactly what’s happening on each one: recent sales, what buyers are actually asking for, what’s realistic to expect from a valuation right now.

Built on giving young people a chance, for 37 years

“My ambition has always been simple, to be the best local estate agent for local people. For me, that isn’t just about selling houses; it’s about investing in the communities we serve and giving opportunities to young people starting their careers.

Someone took a chance on me back in 1989. Looking back, that’s 37 years ago, and I honestly hadn’t realised it had been that long! That opportunity changed my life, and I’ve always believed it’s important to pass on my knowledge and experience to the next generation. My goal is to help develop people so they become even better than I ever was.

I get enormous satisfaction from watching young people grow in confidence, develop their skills and build successful careers within our business.”

Gail Roberts, Director, Whitegates

That same commitment to developing local talent is part of what we’re building into the Prescot branch from the ground up:

22 staff across our branches
8 apprentices currently training – 2 have just qualified their Estate Agency Apprenticeships
5 members of our senior leadership team started their careers as apprentices, now Branch Managers, Valuers and Negotiators
Team members who’ve stayed with us for 26 years, 7 years, and everything in between elsewhere in the business

A new branch, backed by an old habit: giving people a genuine start, and keeping them long enough to become the local expert you actually want dealing with your move.
