We are here to help
At Albion Knights, we don’t just list your property and hope for the best. We go the extra mile to create standout listings that include video tours and detailed floor plans—at no extra cost to you. Beyond that, we leverage the power of social media to get your property noticed by the right audience. Our goal is to maximize exposure and deliver the best possible results for you.
But our real work starts once we find a buyer or tenant. We stay on top of every detail, liaising with solicitors, buyers, other agents in the chain, and everyone involved to keep things moving. During tenancies, we take care of tenant queries and maintenance issues on your behalf, ensuring both happy tenants and a well-maintained property.
How it all began…
Back in 2004, Sally Knights—a self-proclaimed property geek with a head full of knowledge, a heart full of determination, and enough energy to power a small village—decided to dive headfirst into starting her own estate agency business. Armed with years of experience in sales and lettings, she knew her stuff inside out. But life wasn’t about to slow down—she also got married that year and welcomed her first child in 2006. Crazy timing? Absolutely. But with grit, passion, and just six weeks of maternity leave (yes, really!), Sally kept pushing forward.
Fast forward to today, Sally now has an amazing team by her side to share the workload—but her core values haven’t changed one bit. The mission remains the same: delivering outstanding service with a personal touch, one happy client at a time.

I've been with Albion for about 3 years now, never had any issues. Every time I've needed maintenance, the staff there have been truly helpful and patient with me. I had a problem this evening, Sally Knights was truly lovely and understanding, and helped me so much. I hope to stay with Albion for the foreseeable future because she was so lovely, helpful, and keeping me calm. Thank you so much for dealing with my silliness!.
