Meyers Estate Agents welcomes new franchisees

Meyers Estate Agents, the UK's first 24/7 home-based agency, have recruited three new franchisees as part of its new national recruitment drive.

Meyers, which has been voted as in the top 3% of UK estate agencies, is focused on helping property owners sell fast with more affordable costs and was set up as a franchise seven years ago. Since launch, Meyers has instructed more than one billion pounds of properties and is looking to capitalise on the continued growth in the sector through further expansion of its franchised network.

Mark Meyer, principal, Meyers Estate Agents confirms: “Despite the COVID chaos of the past 12 months, the market remains strong and prices continues to rise, proving property is a stable environment regardless of what else is going on in the world. Currently, many are reconsidering career choices or for those already in the sector, some are looking for a more modern model or are ready to take up the challenge and rewards of becoming self-employed. As a result, during the Pandemic, we have taken on three new franchisees based in the Axe Valley and Lyme Regis, Blandford, and Wimborne & Broadstone plus a self-employed associate and are now expanding further.

“For many years, we have recognised how the benefits of reduced overheads achieved by moving away from the high street and taking advantage of the latest technology can be passed onto our customers. Our business is about how local agents build close relationships with their communities and become the go-to property expert in their region for sales and lettings. They expand at their own pace by working with other self-employed staff as necessary to grow within their territory. 

“Our family-friendly business model offers the opportunity to achieve a healthy work-life balance, as well as enriching the lives of those in the community. For example, all of our franchisees work with a local charity of their choice and as an organisation, a proportion of our profits go to Mind the mental health charity to support four eco-therapy allotments that help people living with depression, isolation and loneliness."

“For us, property is a people business and so we are now on the lookout for the right personalities to join and grow our brand. Experience of the property market is not always necessary as our system is so easy to learn. However, our highly personalised approach is tailored to individual clients and so we are looking for people, people. Our team’s professionalism goes above and beyond to ensure our customers always come first and their transaction is as stress free and speedy as possible. For the right candidates, a low franchise fee, full support and training powered by our proven processes, means there has never been a better time to make the move to Meyers.”
