About Allen Heritage
Our story begins in West Wickham & Shirley, where our estate agency grew into a trusted name across the Boroughs of Croydon, Bromley and beyond.
Our team’s longevity truly sets us apart. While many estate agencies come and go, Allen Heritage has built a reputation that has stood the test of time. With decades of shared experience, a wealth of local knowledge, and a genuine commitment to personal service.
Clients return to us time and again because they know we combine professional results with a caring, down-to-earth approach. We’re proud to guide our clients through life’s biggest moves with confidence and reassurance.
Our Story
Allen Heritage is proudly owned and managed by two husband-and-wife teams who’ve worked side-by-side for decades. Founders Rob and Kim Allen now run the business with Luke and Nicola Sellick, long-time colleagues, close friends, and part of the Allen Heritage journey almost from the very beginning.
What started as a small family-run agency has grown into one of the area’s most trusted and successful estate agents, but it’s still driven by the same core people, values, and relationships that shaped it from day one. Kim began her career as a weekend receptionist, Nicola joined as a sales progressor, and Rob and Luke have worked together since Luke was a teenager.
Over time, their shared experience, dedication, and friendship turned into something much more – a company built on trust, collaboration, and a deep commitment to serving the local community.
