About Callwell

where it all began...

Serial entrepreneur and tech obsessive Rob Wellstead had – amongst other things – been a letting agent for over 20 years and, by 2013, he knew he had a problem. The leads from portals such as Rightmove and Zoopla were piling in and many were being called by his teams quickly and efficiently but some weren’t. And he had no way of knowing which fell into which bucket – “dealt with well” or “dealt with not well”. So he created Callwell.

Bob Scarff

managing director

Bob has been an estate agent since leaving school in 1978. In the second half of his forty years in the industry he became increasingly irritated with agents that refused to respond to customer emails as quickly as they would respond to phone calls. "Why can't somebody invent a machine that would make the phone ring when an email arrives?" he would frequently ask himself.

Since 2016 he has owned and ran Callwell, a business that does exactly that.

He spends a lot of time in his virtual shed tinkering with tech to find solutions to real-world business problems. Nicknamed ‘Gadget’, the only thing that he has yet to solve with technology is ironing. He lives in an underground lair somewhere in Bedfordshire with an electric car and is always striving to find new ways to build control into everyday life.
