Barons is a local independent Estate Agency established in 1993 by Steven Heaps, who wanted to offer a more positive, professional and informed service to the local market. After a career working with both Independent & National estate agents his aim was to provide a more focused, bespoke service to clients which the larger estate agents and corporates could not provide.

Steve has worked in Estate Agency for over 30 years for both independents and corporate agencies alike; he was instrumental in new office start ups and a regional director at a large corporate agent. He is the founding partner of Barons and has extensive local knowledge of the local market and property related matters, particularly residential sales & lettings.

The Ombudsman is totally independent of agents and reports directly to the TPO Council which has a majority of non-industry members.The Ombudsman's role is to reach a resolution of unresolved disputes in full and final settlement.
