Estate Agent

Our Win Win Proposition comprises of a 3 in 1 business model - including residential estate agency sales and also a robust lettings and financial services model.

YOUR MOVE, part of LSL PropertyServices plc, is one of the UK's largest estate agency companies with a network of offices right across the UK. YOUR MOVE commenced franchising in 2003 and our plan is to expand the network by opening new franchised estate agency offices in towns where we are  currently not represented.

Who's ideal for us?

• Existing estate agents who want the opportunity to run and build their own business
• Independent estate agents who want to enhance their service proposition and fee earning potential but yet retain the goodwill associated by their existing trading
  
• Entrepreneurs and business professionals who want to build their own estate agency business and benefit from a market-leading proposition and know how
   
  

The rewards of operating a YOUR MOVE franchise can be significant, not only the financial rewards, but also the satisfaction of building a new business into a valuable asset. We expect franchisees to be closely involved and 'hands on' in the running of their business.

You do not need any formal qualifications to become an estate agent however YOUR MOVE will provide you with all of the training and support you need to get your business up and running. We will also be able to help you with the recruitment of experienced estate agency staff who will be critical to the future success of your business.

We believe that generic skills learnt and developed in other industries are transferable into estate agency. You will need to be highly self-motivated, financially astute, energetic and above all confident in both your own abilities and our proposition.
