‘B-Ewe-tiful’ business shows high-street is thriving
A Bexleyheath estate agency is celebrating a positive first six months in business which has already seen it make a bold impression across the local community.
Based at 294 Broadway in the town, EweMove Bexleyheath was launched in November 2017 and has already established a strong high street presence with its striking turf frontage, as a result seeing both its sales and lettings portfolios grow month-on-month.
James Hillier, one of the Branch Directors, explained: “We’re all experienced agents here at EweMove Bexleyheath, having grown a hugely successful and award-winning high street agency, Apex Residential, since 2003. We proudly built our reputation locally for delivering outstanding service, but after 14 years, we simply weren’t sure how to drive further growth of the existing business.”
The branch completed a full rebrand to the iconic EweMove pink and green signage and saw its indoor space freshened up with bright-coloured furnishings.
“Our decision to join the EweMove flock was made last year, and in just six months of trading, we’ve seen incredibly positive growth of both our sales and lettings portfolios which we think is massively helped by our eye-catching shop front complete with our own AstroTurf sheep pen outside!
“There really is no other agency in the region quite like us, and we are thrilled to see the direct impact that breaking away from the monotony of the traditional high street estate agency has had – we’ve absolutely broken the mould over recent months and are looking forward to continuing to do so!”
Based on a hybrid model with over 120 on the ground agents delivering a personal face-to-face service on a local level, EweMove operates a national operations centre which provides cutting-edge technology and comprehensive support to its local franchisees. The agency is also proud of its genuine no sale, no fee and no tie-ins commitment which it terms its ‘Happy Sale Guarantee’.
“We’re seeing more and more customers driven to the quirky and approachable EweMove brand. Our short-term goal is to continue building our presence in the local area, and with continued growth, we’re keen to explore opportunities to establish in surrounding areas too. It’s a hugely exciting time for the entire EweMove Bexleyheath team.”
Nick Neill, Managing Director of EweMove, commented: “James, Rob and Clinton – the three Branch Directors at EweMove Bexleyheath, have been such a positive addition to the EweMove business and we’re absolutely delighted to see that our innovative approach to estate agency has already made a direct impact on their local communities just six months in. We wish them continued growth and success in the months and years to come.”
