When you sell or let your property with Burns & Webber, you get given access to MyBurnsandWebber – our customer portal which provides information about your property sale/let, including conveyancing progress and updates, contract documents and correspondence and easy access to your property listing.
Burns & Webber make referrals to Curchods Mortgage Services who are ‘whole of the market’ mortgage advisers. This means they are often able to find lending options that High Street banks cannot match. We can look at your position in detail and help you find the right mortgage product for your needs.
You can learn more about the products and services we offer on the Curchods Mortgage Services page.

All of our 21 residential sales branches are now officially licensed under Propertymark, the UK’s leading independent regulatory body. This means your local residential sales branch is one of a very few number of local agents who are licensed.
The Property Ombudsman’s role in residential sales is to provide fair and reasonable resolutions to disputes between members of the public and estate agents who are members of the TPO Scheme or who have registered with TPO as an Approved Estate Agents Redress Scheme. Firms who are members follow the TPO Code of Practice for Residential Sales.
We are part of the Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS), ensuring our landlords and tenants are covered at all times throughout the letting process.
The Property Ombudsman is able to consider disputes referred by landlords or tenants and relating to lettings and management agents that are members of the scheme. These agents follow the TPO Code of Practice for Letting Agents.
Note that disputes relating to repayment of deposits paid by tenants and which are protected by an approved Tenancy Deposit Scheme should be referred to the relevant Deposit Protection Scheme.
