A Personal Message From Us

“At Churcher Estates, we’re a family-run business with a simple goal: to treat every client the way we’d want our own family to be treated.” Having navigated the property world ourselves, as buyers, sellers, and professionals, we know how stressful and overwhelming the process can be when it’s not handled with care.

Our background is in large corporate businesses where exceptional customer service was at the heart of everything we did. We’ve brought those same values into Churcher Estates, but with something the big agencies often lack, a truly personal touch.

We live here in Burscough, our children go to school here, and we’re proud to be a part of this close-knit community. This isn’t just a place we work at, it’s home. That’s why every move matters to us. Whether you’re buying your first home, upsizing for a growing family, or saying goodbye to a home filled with memories, you’ll be treated with honesty, respect, and genuine care every step of the way.

We’re not just here to sell houses, we’re here to build relationships, offer guidance and make sure you feel supported from beginning to end.

Our Clients Say It For Us

We were really surprised when we received an offer over the asking price. Thanks to all the team at Churcher Estates. The entire process was so smooth. Can’t recommend highly enough.
David Grace
Thanks again for such a quick sale. We’re so pleased with it going through so quickly and everyone has commented how lovely our house looked online. Brilliant service from everyone at Churcher Estates.
Ken Johnson
Sold in Burscough
Fantastic group of professional agents. From the minute of contact, the team were very proactive and sold our house in a matter of days. They then kept in constant contact via WhatsApp and supported the progression of the sale. Thank you Team Churcher!
Aimee Watkinson
Sold in Ormskirk
We used Churcher Estates recently to sell my Mum's house. To be honest I was dreading the whole process but my fears were completely non founded. From the start we were looked after by James and he was absolutely brilliant throughout. Professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and very approachable. Nothing was too much trouble for him. We sold the house almost immediately and process thereafter went very smoothly. Such a relief.
