We put the 13 questions a person in Fareham asks before choosing an independent estate agent — cost, specialism, who to use, how to check them — to Claude, 5 times each, 65 answers in all, and recorded every firm the answers named. 0 firms in Fareham were checked against those answers. 0 of them were named at least once. The rest were not recommended in a single answer. Below are the 0 firms named most often; the others are told their result privately.
No independent estate agent in Fareham was named in any of the 65 answers on 24 October 2026. The question set is open to the first firm that earns a mention.
Firms are ranked by the number of answers that named them, then by how many different questions. The top 3 of the 0 firms checked are listed (the top ten, or the top third, whichever is smaller), plus any firm level with the last one in; a rank number that is skipped belongs to a firm that is not named here: it asked not to be, or the name the assistants used is a trade body, a national chain or a description rather than a local firm. The assistants do not give identical answers twice, so a difference of one or two mentions is noise; being named on questions a rival is absent from is not.
Is this your firm? If anything here is wrong, or you would rather your firm were not listed, email hello@aether-agency.co.uk or use the contact form. We acknowledge within two working days, correct a factual error as soon as it is confirmed, and take a firm off the public page on request; the measurement itself is not changed, because it records what the assistants said on the day.
Every independent estate agent we checked has a private report: which answers named it, which rivals were named instead, whether its website can be read by the assistants, and the three things that would change the result. We work with one independent estate agent in Fareham, and this index is re-measured every month, so the change is visible here.
