A history of Alan Randle
Alan Randle, Chartered Surveyor, commenced business in 1934 and was for a long time the only Agent in Potters Bar.
Potters Bar was little more than a village centred on the northern end of the High Street. In 1850 it was decided to build a railway station about a mile away in Darkes Lane, a quiet country lane in the middle of fields, half way to South Mimms. Alan Randle could see the potential and demands of an ‘up and coming’ town and set up business in a timber hut located in the High Street (which can still be seen today, but now situated behind one of the shops in Darkes Lane). Since then we have probably acted for Clients in every road in the area, in fact is it not unusual for us to have sold the same property more than once, and this can only be achieved because Clients trust and respect our advice.
Alan Randle Estate Agents is proud to be Independent and with it’s unique blend of professional expertise and in-depth local knowledge ensures that whenever you or a potential buyer contacts our office, the advice or information requested is always of the highest order and your needs are always dealt with promptly, efficiently and professionally.
For many years our Land and New Homes Department has dealt with acquisition of land for local developers and then promptly selling the new homes on behalf of the developers. Mindful of the need to provide more homes in this desirable area, we are always on the lookout for further land to be developed, whether it is just a single building plot or for a large scale housing or commercial development. So if you have a long garden, together with your neighbours, we can quickly ascertain whether it would be suitable for a future development or not.
