Stackly was founded in 2009 by two appraisers who were tired of watching homes priced on instinct. Every recommendation we make still arrives in writing, with the comparables attached.
Our story
Daniel Whitfield and Ravi Menon spent nine years valuing homes for banks before they ever listed one. That background is why a Stackly engagement begins with a number you can defend rather than a number designed to win the instruction.
Seventeen years later the firm is deliberately small: fourteen licensed advisors, each resident in the market they cover, each carrying no more than four active clients at a time. We turn away listings we cannot price honestly.

Our purpose
Two statements the whole firm is measured against — written down, not implied.
To put a defensible number on every home we touch. Each valuation is written, evidenced and handed to the client — whether they list with us or not — so nobody buys or sells on a guess.
A residential market where price is a matter of record rather than persuasion. We are building the brokerage people call when the number has to be right, in all twenty-six markets we cover.
Different by design
A typical brokerage
Listing won on the highest suggested price

Who we are
They are the reason 72% of our business arrives by referral rather than advertising.
01
We price a home before we agree to sell it. If the number does not hold up, we say so and walk away.
02
The advisor who pitches is the advisor who closes. No handover to a junior after the instruction is signed.
03
Four active clients per advisor. It is the reason replies arrive in hours rather than days.

Years, one standard

A written valuation takes 72 hours, costs nothing, and is yours to keep whether you list with us or not.
Off-market register
Roughly one in five Stackly sales never reaches a portal. Register and an advisor sends the matches privately.
A principal replies personally — typically within two hours on a weekday.
By registering you agree to be contacted about your enquiry. We never share your details with third-party lenders.
