About the Founder

Our Mission and
Values

At Your Key Move, Carlo’s mission is simple: to ensure that every client feels supported and empowered throughout their property journey. Whether you’re buying your first home, selling to find something new, or looking for a profitable investment, Carlo is dedicated to guiding you with honesty and care. He believes that taking a client-first approach - prioritising what’s right for you over a quick sale - is the key to building lasting relationships.

Carlo built Your Key Move on three core values: integrity, excellence, and empathy. These principles shape every decision, from the first consultation to the final handshake.

A Journey Built on Experience

Over the years, he developed a deep understanding of the challenges faced by homebuyers, sellers, and investors. Carlo saw that many clients felt overwhelmed by the complexities of the real estate market and often struggled to find trustworthy guidance.
Motivated by a desire to offer more than just standard property services, Carlo established the estate agents in Folkestone with a mission to redefine how people buy, sell, and invest in the surrounding areas. These surrounding areas include Ashford, Hawkinge, Hythe and Sandgate. His vision was to create a company that put clients first, offering personalised advice and support every step of the way.

A Vision for the Future

Looking ahead, Carlo Martella has ambitious plans for the future of Your Key Move. With a vision to expand the estate agents in Folkestone to surrounding areas, while maintaining the same level of personal care, he continuously explores new ways to innovate and improve. As the real estate market evolves, Carlo’s commitment remains the same: to provide his clients with the best possible experience, backed by the expertise and attention to detail they deserve.

For Carlo, Your Key Move is not just a business - it’s a legacy of trust, transparency, and positive experiences that he hopes to share with every client he serves.

The best experience of using estate agents we have ever had, this team do the basics of their jobs brilliantly and nothing is too much trouble, they have changed our opinion of estate agents for the better due to their level of service from start to finish not just to secure the sale like some. David was instrumental in getting our chain to finally exchange when solicitors were failing! Don’t be a sheep and use high street estate agents, use your head and use your key move for a better and cheaper service!
