A little bit about Skilton & Hogg

David Bruckert (me), Owner of Skilton & Hogg Estate Agents has lived in Rugby for all of his 44 years and has spent the last 25 years or so living in the Bilton area of Rugby. I attended a umber of schools in the town, Eastlands primary School when it was still on St Peters Road! Bilton Junior and Ashlawn High School. I found my passion for Estate Agency circa 2005 when i decided to explore a passion of working with the public. Almost 20 years on and I haven’t lost the desire!

Shakespeare Gardens, Bilton is my home now, along with my wife Kate and my two beautiful children, Amelie & Sebastian who attend local schools.

So what do we do in the Town of Rugby?

We sell houses! But, obviously there is a lot more to it than that. Having worked in the industry as a co owner of a very well known Estate Agency in Warwickshire for some 18 years, I decided it was time to go it alone. We sold that business. I opened up my first office in Daventry, the town where I started my career.

Having established my Daventry office. I am now and able to offer out services to Rugby from my secondary office in Bilton, Rugby.

I am a self employed Estate Agent, not working on a salary and commission like most. What I do, the results I achieve and how I act or directly lined to my business and my lively hood. Therefore you will find that my focus, energy, effectiveness and honesty are significantly different, and more positive that your normal high street Estate Agent.

What do you offer?

Firstly, I believe in offering a high level of service for a fair price. I can do this simply due to the fact that my overheads or lower.

Also, I believe firmly that in this day and age, having one professional dealing with the whole selling process is invaluable. This way, nothing gets lost in translation. You have one point of call. Most importantly, I can offer open hours in terms of work. We do not have closing times as such. The phone is always on, as is the email. Solicitors know our flexibility and our relationships with buyers, sellers and all else involved run smoother and more effectively.

The basics of what we do –

• My job is to get you honest feedback so we can understand market sentiment and establish what we can do to improve if feedback is negative.
