Our History

Back in 2006 White & Guard was a mere seedling of an idea, today it is now recognised as a leading and forward thinking estate agency.

This timeline shows some of the key events, people and places that have shaped the company into what it is today.

2006 – 2010
2006 First office opened

White & Guard opened its first office, formerly the village Police Station, in Bishops Waltham covering the beautiful Meon Valley.

As Directors of corporate agencies within the industry for a number of years Jason & Steve see a way an Estate Agency could be done differently and create impact. 

2009 Strength to strength

The company went from strength to strength opening their next office in Hedge End, spear-headed by Director Russell Webb. By this time W&G were increasing their market share in the area, which only complimented the homes that they were now attracting and the client base that they were rapidly building.

W&G also started to be recognised for the results that they were achieving and were successful in winning many awards.

2011 – 2015
2011 Team expands

With both its sales and lettings side of the business, run by Kerry Watson, White & Guard is a business that stands out and is ingrained within the community. White & Guard is now a business that both stands out and is an integral part of the community. The company is also now positioning itself as the area's leading Estate Agency, with a focus on quality, service and pride in all that it does.

2013 Unrivalled pride

With both its sales and lettings side of the business, run by Kerry Watson, a long-standing, experienced head of the department, the company was now considered to be a business that stood out and one that was ingrained within its community.  White & Guard was now perhaps one of the most comprehensive collectives in existence locally with an unrivalled pride in what they do.

2020 - 2022
2020 Gold Masters Award

We were proud to receive recognition as one of the leading estate agents in the country, winning gold awards across the board in both the national and regional categories at The British Property Awards, EA Masters, ESTAS and Southern Enterprise Awards. This is reflective of the hard work of our teams and the results we achieve for our clients.

Having now built a strong affiliation with our client base and with an exceptional team of individuals which enables us to see many returning clients, the business continues to grow in a way that is organic, exciting and long-lasting.

Real Stories, Real Results

The service from White & Guard was exceptional.
