History
Goadsby was established in 1958 by the founding partners Mr Goadsby & Mr Harding with offices in St. Peters Road, Bournemouth that handled both residential and commercial property work.
The business grew to a clutch of branches in the Bournemouth and surrounding area and during the mid 1980’s, the business witnessed considerable expansion, with a number of strategic residential business acquisitions and cold starts. At this time the business also took the first real steps towards specialisation within our Commercial Agency and Professional Services disciplines at our Bournemouth Head Office.
The business incorporated in 1984 and a major management buy-out was completed in 1990.
Throughout the 1980’s and 1990’s, the Group continued to expand at all levels. Notably its residential branch network expanded considerably with offices to the north of Bournemouth upon the Dorset/Hampshire border and into South Wiltshire together with further expansion across South and West Dorset.
January 1st 2005 saw a major expansion of the Commercial business, with offices in Southampton and Winchester and a major rebrand took place during 2006.

These include Residential Sales and Lettings, New Homes, Land and Mortgage Services, whilst through our commercial offices specialist departments include: Business Space, Retail, Hotels and Leisure, Investment Consultancy, Special Projects, Survey and Valuation, Building Consultancy, Town Planning, Property Management, Corporate and Public Sector Consultancy.
