In Scarborough

What comes up in Scarborough.

Scarborough's tourism economy produces more involved estates than a town its size usually would: holiday lets, second homes, several bank accounts. In the town centre, North Bay or South Cliff, Aaron Johnson comes to you.

A Scarborough estate often has letting income still arriving while it is being administered. That has to be collected, accounted for and reported, and a holiday let cannot simply be shut up until the grant comes through.

  • Home visits across Scarborough and the surrounding villages
  • Covers North Bay, South Cliff and the town centre
  • Understanding of the local property market
  • Evening and weekend appointments available
