The Storeys Sales Department launched in Summer 2024 with a mission to provide the highest level of service and the best possible outcomes for our clients. Our approach is simple: by creating value for both the buyer and the seller, we focus on a design-led marketing strategy, value-driven advice, and genuine personal care—we understand property, but more importantly, we understand people.
Dan Woods, appointed sales director, has been successfully selling and outperforming the East London market since he first joined the industry in Shoreditch 16 years ago. With a high level of expertise in marketing, dynamic energy, real honest feedback, and direct negotiation, Dan knows what it takes to succeed. Having lived in East London throughout his career, he brings invaluable local knowledge and a wealth of experience to the table.
At Storeys, we offer a tailored approach—focused entirely on the best possible outcome for you. Trusted by many long-term local landlords, with an ever-growing lettings portfolio already to our name, Storeys is fast becoming a favourite in the area. With 16+ years of expertise, Dan is committed to focusing all his energy and skills to deliver the results you deserve—he has been there, done it and knows what it takes to get the job done with a smile.
It all starts with the right advice from day 1. If you don't invest in the right areas to showcase your property's full potential, we're already on the back foot. With the correct setup and timeline, we will ensure you maximise your property's full potential.
We're in this for the long haul, meaning we always have an eye to the future. So repeat business and referrals are how we've grown our business; in fact, we've never done any form of marketing to this point, 7 years in.
First impressions count. Our job is to identify the unique elements of each property and showcase them in a meaningful way that appeals to the right audience.
Great communication is the key to any transaction, but reading between the lines and understanding the needs of both the seller and the buyer is the difference between a successful sale and a missed opportunity.
Selling a home isn’t just a transaction – it’s a journey. We’re by your side through every step, offering guidance and support at every corner so you feel confident, assured, and excited about the process.
We’ve had the pleasure of helping many homeowners, and every relationship we build is something we truly value. With a blend of care, commitment, and proven results, we’ve earned a reputation as trusted experts in the area. It’s all about putting your needs first and ensuring the process is smooth, successful, and stress-free – because, at the end of the day, it’s not just about the property; it’s about you.
The most important step is getting the right valuation. Choose the agent you feel you will work best with, as the right advice and strategy are essential to maximise engagement and, ultimately, the value of your most important asset. We prioritise delivering this from the outset, ensuring you're fully informed every step of the way.

We’ll ensure your property is showcased to its fullest potential. From advice on potential refurbishments to tips on how to present your home, every detail counts in a competitive market. Our goal is to ensure your property is positioned for success right from the start. Once we have your approval, we promise to deliver the best online marketing to highlight your asset’s maximum potential.

We manage all viewings and offers on your behalf, working tirelessly to achieve the highest value for your property. Once an offer is accepted, we handle the entire conveyancing process, collaborating with proactive solicitors and mortgage brokers to ensure a smooth journey. No stone is left unturned. Our aim is to minimize stress and make the sales process as seamless and enjoyable as possible, all the way to exchange and completion – MONEY IN THE BANK.

It’s really straightforward – from “under offer” to exchange, the conveyancing process usually takes anywhere between 3-5 months. This largely depends on how proactive your solicitor is in chasing management packs and replying to enquiries, etc. Once under offer, you’ll need to fill out your property protocol forms. Once completed, the solicitor will send across the draft contracts and apply for the management pack (if required, such as for leasehold properties). This is where the conveyancing process begins. The buyers will raise enquiries based on the pack provided. In the background, the buyers will be waiting for their searches to return. Upon receipt of the search results, further enquiries will be raised. The conveyancing process essentially works toward a conclusion where all enquiries are satisfied, and the exchange deposit is transferred. Completion normally takes place 3-5 working days after exchange, although simultaneous exchange and completion can take place if arranged with the lender beforehand.
This question naturally follows from the one above – yes, solicitors are very important. I believe it’s one of the most critical decisions you’ll make throughout the process (along with which agent you decide to work with). I advise spending a little more on your legal representation – essentially, you get what you pay for. You need a solicitor who answers your calls and chases things up on your behalf. London-based solicitors local to the sale are preferable, but London-based is essential. I have a couple of people I recommend who I’ve worked with for years and have been closely involved in hundreds of transactions, so we’ve got you covered with excellent legal support! But remember, don’t be tempted by cheap, out-of-area solicitors – that can mean the difference between a 3-month completion and a 5-6 month one. That’s a big difference!
1. Up to £250k: No tax for first-time buyers (up to £425k).
2. £250k – £925k: 5%.
3. £925k – £1.5m: 10%.
4. Over £1.5m: 12%.
For me, this is the easiest question I get asked. We essentially provide the same service (and more) as the larger corporate agencies, but at a fraction of the cost, making Storeys much better value for your hard-earned cash!
We’ve handpicked and curated the best entrepreneurial team in East London, given them the autonomy they need to deliver excellent results and all the support to achieve the best possible outcome for you. At the end of the day, you want the most experienced and best performers in the industry working hard for you with the goal of providing the highest level of service and outstanding results and to be recommended to friends and family at the end – and that’s what we’re about!
You’ll be featured on our brand-new, industry-leading website, combining lifestyle and art with beautiful property. Your property will also be listed alongside Rightmove, Zoopla, and all of our social media channels to capture and maximise your exposure.
Amazing value and amazing service – I hope you’ll see this from our very first meeting. You’ll get my expertise (I’ve worked and lived in the area for over 16 years, at director and partner levels). You’ll receive my passion and one-to-one service throughout the process! We offer flexible contract lengths, first-class marketing, photos, video walk-throughs, and standout marketing. We’ll also provide a bespoke marketing plan, as well as clear strategic advice on timings, pricing, and feedback throughout the entire process. I’ll hold your hand every step of the way until we can celebrate your sale together!
Energy, Passion, Care & Commitment!
This is a fun one to answer! I’m a humble guy originally from Birmingham, and I’ve managed to navigate a successful career in the diverse and sometimes extremely tough London property market for what feels like an eternity now! Selling property and working with clients is not just a job for me anymore – it’s a massive part of my life, and I’m very passionate about it. I love working closely with my clients to deliver an amazing experience for them. I guess the measure of my success is the clients I still speak with now – many are friends and have referred repeat business to me over the years! For me, that’s the true measure of success. I’m experienced, knowledgeable, and flexible. I’m always on hand to listen and offer advice and would be over the moon to work with you. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
