The Estate Agency Growth Audit

Your agency is definitely leaving money on the table.

I’ll spend 90 days on your business, helping you improve it.

You’ve built a good agency. But somewhere along the way, growth has become harder, the business has become more dependent on you, and you’re not quite sure what the next move is.

Maybe revenue has stalled.
Maybe profit isn’t where it should be.
Maybe the team could perform better.
Maybe you’re simply too involved in everything.

I know what that feels like because I’ve lived it.

  • Increase revenue
  • Improve profitability
  • Convert more opportunities
  • Build a stronger team
  • Increase business value
  • Reduce reliance on you

Knowing what’s wrong isn’t enough. Fixing it is.

We get under the bonnet, find what’s costing you money, slowing the team down or keeping you trapped in the day to day. Then we fix it.

More revenue. More profit. Better people. Less reliance on you.

The evidence

I’ve grown two successful engines. Sales. Then lettings.

Two very different growth engines, built at different stages of the business. Both created lessons I now bring into your agency.

£215k to £1.2m

Sales led growth

5.6 times growth. 456%.

From 2018 to 2021, the sales led business grew from £214,949 to almost £1.2m.

No acquisitions. Built organically.

£215k → £427k → £772k → £1.2m

The growth years

Three years of explosive growth that completely transformed the scale of the agency.

More people. More pressure. More complexity. More lessons.

Growth teaches you things theory never will.

£34,719 to £471,821

Then we built lettings.

13.6 times growth. 1,259%.

From a small lettings operation in 2021 to £471,821 of recurring revenue by 2025.

Again, no acquisition. Built organically.

20+ people

Building the team behind the numbers

I’ve hired brilliantly. I’ve hired badly. I’ve promoted, managed, restructured and learned plenty along the way.

Because growth isn’t just about revenue.

It’s about building the people capable of delivering it.

The reality of building an agency

You do everything yourself.

Valuations. Viewings. Phones. Marketing. Problems. And apparently the cleaning.

The growth years

£200k to £400k to £770k to £1.2m+

People. Recruitment. Management. Systems. Costs. Competition. Bigger targets.

Where it began

Property took me further than that first office.

Switzerland taught me the value of buyers, relationships and communicating quickly, whether the news is good or bad.

Perspective

Building a bigger agency is not always the same as building a better one.

I’ve made decisions I’d repeat tomorrow and plenty I wouldn’t. That is the experience I bring into your agency.

The Estate Agency Growth Audit

So, what actually happens?

A clear, practical process designed to find the opportunity and turn it into results.

The audit finds the opportunity. The next 90 days turn it into action.
  1. 01

    I get your numbers.

    Before I arrive, I get underneath the financials, sales, lettings, people, costs and performance.

  2. 02

    I spend a day with you.

    I spend the day with you and any members of your team you would like to involve. We look at the systems and processes, challenge the numbers and identify the simple quick fixes.

  3. 03

    We find the leak and hit it hard.

    This is where the opportunity sits. We get into the pains and strains, expose what is holding the business back and focus on the areas that will make the biggest difference.

  4. 04

    I give you the plan.

    You receive your bespoke audit, your five priorities and your 90 day action plan.

  5. 05

    Implementation and accountability.

    We put the plan into practice, review progress, deal with obstacles and keep everyone accountable throughout the 90 days.

The Estate Agency Audit is a specialist 90 day programme focused on finding the opportunity and putting the plan into practice.

For the costequivalent ofone fee.

One instruction could pay for the entire programme.
The value is in what happens after that.

This is for you if...

You’ve built a decent agency. Now stop settling for a decent business.

If you’re turning over £250k+, the foundations are already there.

The question is whether you’re getting enough from them.

Enough revenue? Enough profit? The right people? Enough time away from the day to day?

Or are you still the person fixing everything, chasing everyone and carrying too much of the business yourself?

I work with agency owners who know they should be further ahead than they are and are prepared to do something about it.

Sales. Lettings. People. Profit. Structure. Growth.

We find what’s holding the business back and get to work.

I only take on 4 Agency Audits a month.

That gives me the time to get properly involved in each business, rather than spreading myself too thin.

If you know your agency could be performing better, sign up now and secure one of the available spaces.

Where opportunity usually sits

The treasure is probably already in the business.

The biggest opportunities often sit inside the same people, processes, clients and data.

01

Valuation conversion

What would another 5% be worth?

02

Fees

What does another £250 per completion do annually?

03

Your database

How many future vendors and landlords are sitting untouched?

04

Lettings

What would another 50 or 100 managed properties mean?

05

People

Are expensive people doing inexpensive work?

06

Fall throughs

How much agreed fee income disappears every year?

07

Marketing

What are you actually getting back?

08

Owner dependency

What stops working when you stop working?

Your biggest opportunity might not be the one you’re looking for. That is precisely why I come in from outside.

A better business

Growth matters. Freedom matters too.

There is a reason I wanted the business to work without me. A good agency should create value for its clients, its people and its owner.

I am not here to teach you estate agency. I am here to help you build a better one.

Questions

A few things agency owners usually want to know.

What happens during the 90 days?

We establish where the business is now, audit the key areas, identify the opportunity and agree the five priorities most capable of making a difference. The rest of the programme turns those priorities into action.

Is this only for struggling agencies?

No. It is designed for independent owners who have already built a good business but believe it could perform better.

Do you look at both sales and lettings?

Yes. Where applicable, I look across both sides of the business rather than treating them in isolation.

Will you look at my team?

Yes. People and performance form part of the audit alongside the financial and operational areas of the business.

Is the process confidential?

Yes. The work involves commercially sensitive information and the confidentiality commitment is agreed clearly before the programme begins.

Start with a conversation

Don’t book the programme. Book a conversation with me.

Tell me about your agency. Tell me what is working, what is frustrating you and where you want to take it. I’ll ask a few questions and tell you honestly whether I think I can help.

I’ve built an independent agency from a cold start to more than £1.5m revenue. I’ve built a lettings business from virtually nothing into a substantial recurring revenue stream. I’ve made good decisions, bad decisions and plenty of expensive ones.

Now I use that experience to get under the bonnet of your agency, work out what is holding it back and help you do something about it.

Knowing what’s wrong isn’t enough. Fixing it is.

We get under the bonnet, find what’s costing you money, slowing the team down or keeping you trapped in the day to day. Then we fix it.

More revenue. More profit. Better people. Less reliance on you.
