About Hortons
Hortons is a property agency created for the modern world.
Our story
Adam Horton started his career in property as an apprentice aged just 17, and progressed quickly at a traditional high street estate agency. A few years later in 2013, Adam set up his first estate agency business. The goal was to provide a local and more modern way to sell your home.
Today, in its simplest form, Hortons is a property agency that specialises in marketing, selling and letting homes. We’ve torn up the rule book and have built an agency fit for the modern world with professional, experienced agents at its core. Clients work with their own personal agent, known as a Partner, to ensure they get a high level of service and the very best advice. Partners are backed by Hortons’ industry leading support and marketing teams, meaning clients’ homes reach the widest audience possible.
