Knowledge is Power: Empowering Your Property Decisions
Welcome to LPandM, one of the oldest and most prestigious estate agents in Watford, established in 1919. With over a century of experience, we have built a reputation for providing exceptional service and expertise in the property market. Our family-owned business has been passed down through generations, ensuring a commitment to integrity, professionalism, and customer satisfaction.
Our Story
LPandM was founded by Bill Lawton as Lawton and Wright in 1919. In 1959, the business was acquired by Rowland Mecklenburgh, and his son Howard has since taken the reins. Throughout our history, we have remained committed to providing a high-quality service to our customers, be they landlords, tenants, or property investors. Our long-standing presence in the community has earned us a reputation as one of the most respected estate agents in Watford.

Whether you're a landlord, tenant, or property investor, we have a suite of services designed to help you achieve your goals.
