The company was established in 2003 and has grown from a single site to a multi site operation. Our company has grown by providing a fresh and dynamic approach to the property market.The reason for this success is that Gatekeeper delivers results, a 1st class service at a competative price. Mat Symons (Gatekeeper Sales Director) explains "We not only work harder, we train harder and invest more in our people to ensure that they deliver the results 'time after time'. The fact that the over whelming majority of our new business comes through referrals proves we deliver a level of service that you would happily recommend to a friend or relative."

Services
We look after properties in Witney, Banbury, Bicester, Swindon and Aylesbury, but we don't need a branch in every town. Gatekeeper staff work together, sharing knowledge in one central office. Our local teams maintain a focus on their areas by getting out to visit more properties and speak to more customers than traditional agents.
Gatekeeper was born 11 years ago with four founders, all aiming to deliver a fresh way to buy, sell, let and rent property. Ultimately that means putting people first. We've always felt that if our customers are happy, the business will grow. The business continues to thrive and our teams now cover Witney, Aylesbury, Swindon, Banbury and Bicester.
Patrick set up Gatekeeper back in 2003, he had always wanted to run his own business and felt the property market was in need of a far more customer focused approach than was being offered. Patrick's own background includes working for a diverse number of companies including Comet, BAA and Phones4U where he learned to combine the skills of delivering good customer service backed up by robust back of house processes. I am passionate about delivering excellent customer service in a market that is ever changing and becoming more demanding.
Over the last 25 years, we have established great relationships with our purchasers, listening to what they want from their local estate agent, and as a result have developed a comprehensive service tailored to fit your needs. We know that over 50% of all property searches are carried out via smartphones and tablets, so we have a dedicated mobile website to make your life easier.
Whether this is the first time you're buying a property, or you simply haven't been through the process recently, we hope you'll find the information and tips within this guide useful. If you're buying a property with Gatekeeper, you'll always know who to contact back at the office, so however big or small your question, just get in touch.

Very good agency. Everything you need to know explained, very efficient and easy to work with. Communication is very good. Pricing is very competitive to others on the market, worth using and would definitely suggest others use their services. Recently I had some issues with the tenant, which required a little diplomacy to resolve; gatekeeper went out of their way to resolve the issue with the tenant which was a relief to both the landlord and tenant.

PLENTY OF FAKE REVIEWS! Avoid at all cost or it will literally be your cost. Check out the real independent reviews as well they generally score VERY badly (I wish I'd checked), if you ignore the blatantly fake reviews. In my case I found a property to rent and put the money down to take it off the market and secure it (as they described it). I got a phone call less than an hour later to say they wanted more money and this put it outside my budget.
They said the money I put down was non-refundable and tried to push me in to another property or lose my 150. I have lodged a complaint with the Ombudsman and Office of Fair Trading and passed the issue to a solicitor friend to deal with. Try Finders keepers or Chancellors. They have been much better to deal with and more professional and not welched on the deal.

Gatekeeper were wonderful when my husband and I were looking for somewhere to buy in Oxfordshire. Very efficient, kept us updated with text and email confirmations for viewings, and Hazel was wonderful when showing us around. Very friendly team, very nice people, and smooth and efficient to deal with. One of the best experiences we have had in our house-buying journey.

Having bought through Gatekeeper for the first time recently, we were very impressed and grateful for their hard work, professionalism and approach. Phil at gatekeeper came recommended to us and we can see exactly why. If we ever sell he will be the first man we speak to. Very efficient in his work, his work ethic was impeccable and just an all round nice person.
We have been on the property ladder for ten years changing houses on three occasions and without question Phil and Gatekeeper are the best we've experienced. Thank you all very much.
