Tathams: A Homecoming<br />
If you've been up near Thornhill<br />
crossroads lately, you may have<br />
noticed a smart new shop front.<br />
Tathams Estate Agents might<br />
sound like a new name in the<br />
village, but nothing could be further<br />
from the truth. The business is<br />
family-owned and run by brothers<br />
Richard and Nicholas Tatham, both<br />
<strong>Rhiwbina</strong> boys - and their family<br />
has been part of the North Cardiff<br />
community for decades.<br />
"We were both born and grew up<br />
in <strong>Rhiwbina</strong>, and both attended<br />
Llanishen Fach Primary and then<br />
Whitchurch High School," says<br />
Richard.<br />
"We've also both worked in the<br />
Deri and the Honey Pot so we've<br />
probably served you a pint or<br />
delivered your newspaper back in<br />
the day!" he laughs. It's safe to say<br />
that working together has always<br />
proved a success for the two<br />
brothers.<br />
Between them, they have over 30<br />
combined years of estate agency<br />
experience, having successfully<br />
created and developed Online<br />
Agent Cardiff and Bay City <strong>Living</strong>.<br />
The new office on Caerphilly<br />
Road is therefore a move back to<br />
10<br />
Tathams Estate Agents have just opened their new office on Caerphilly<br />
Road. But it's more than just a new office - it's a move back home<br />
<strong>Rhiwbina</strong> for the Tatham brothers<br />
from Llandaff North, where they<br />
were based for many years.<br />
"Tatham House was established<br />
in 2001. It was our father and uncle<br />
who purchased the old Post Office<br />
and moved their business, PG<br />
Insurance, to <strong>Rhiwbina</strong>.<br />
"Our family history is embedded<br />
into the community; both our<br />
grandparents were both longserving<br />
local councillors and<br />
Tatham Road near our new office<br />
was named after them.<br />
"Tatham House has now passed<br />
to us and the rebrand from our<br />
successful hybrid Online Agent<br />
Cardiff branding reflects our<br />
evolution and exciting new future<br />
that mirrors the professionalism of<br />
our service.<br />
"We are proud to have refurbished<br />
the building, which offers us a<br />
fantastic new space that has been<br />
a part of the family and the North<br />
Cardiff community for over 20<br />
years," adds Richard. "We are an<br />
independent, family-run business;<br />
therefore, it felt right to put the<br />
family name behind the brand."<br />
Family is at the core of everything<br />
Tathams do and this is reflected in<br />
the ethics of their non-pushy but<br />
detailed and caring approach to<br />
moving you.<br />
"We offer our services for<br />
residential sales and lettings, along<br />
with mortgage services. We aim to<br />
always deliver the highest quality<br />
of marketing. If you need evidence<br />
showcasing how we market our<br />
properties to the best of their ability,<br />
just check out our photographic<br />
and video marketing on our<br />
Instagram account.<br />
"We offer unrivalled marketing<br />
with 3D and drone photography<br />
available for all properties and all<br />
of this is backed up with our highly<br />
experienced team.<br />
"This includes our cousin Thomas<br />
Tatham, who works in the Lettings<br />
Team. Tom may sound a bit different<br />
since his move from South Africa<br />
last year and he has a keen eye for<br />
property.<br />
"Our office manager Robert<br />
Cornelius, born in Birchgrove, has<br />
also known us since our school<br />
days; you can be sure he keeps the<br />
office running smoothly on a dayto-day<br />
basis."<br />
Through their rebrand, Tathams<br />
aims to bring something special
