About
Brian Hankins-Lewis
I'm Brian Hankins-Lewis — Buckinghamshire-based, 25 years into a career built around one simple idea: exceptional homes deserve proper attention, not a standard sale.
Twenty-five years, one patch of Buckinghamshire
I started in estate agency in 2000, and for twenty-five years the work has stayed the same at its core, even as the properties have changed: understand a home properly, then find the person who’ll value it the way its owner did. That path took me from general sales into premium, unique and country property across Buckinghamshire and Prime London — markets where presentation, positioning and negotiation matter far more than simply listing and waiting.
Joining exp Luxury wasn’t about doing things differently so much as doing them properly — their marketing reach means a Buckinghamshire country house gets in front of buyers locally, nationally and internationally, not just whoever happens to be searching that week. I still do this the way I started: directly, personally, and judged on results. Trust isn’t something I claim — it’s something earned, one client and one sale at a time.

My strategy
Ten written steps, every vendor sees them.
A great strategy starts from having a great process.
A good price isn’t found by luck — it’s built, step by step, before a buyer ever sees the particulars. Getting a premium property ready, positioned and in front of the right audience takes a deliberate sequence, not a single listing and a sign in the ground. What follows is that sequence: the stages I take every property through, in order, so that by the time it’s live, it’s already working as hard as it possibly can for you.
My approach
Three things every client gets, every time.
Personal presence.
I handle every appraisal, every viewing, every negotiation and every progression call myself. No junior, no handover, no team email address.
Time on the phone.
Seven days a week, evenings and bank holidays included. Phone is fastest, WhatsApp is fine. I reply the same day — usually the same hour.
Global reach.
