FEATHERSTONE LEIGH LAUNCHES ITS NEW-LOOK BUSINESS
The estate agent Featherstone Leigh, which closed its office in Teddington’s High Street, will now operate from one ‘flagship hub’ in Richmond, the company announced today. (thursday)
The company will be employing ten staff full time and it will be based at Holbrooke House in Hill Rise.
The company has been acquired by two former directors Brendan Wynne and Fraser Allen and the company’s lettings business has been relaunched immediately. The new business has received the blessing of found Robert Leigh, the company said.
In a statement shared with Teddington Town, they said: “Times have changed, and they are flexing the business accordingly – operating from one high street hub that services the whole area, promoting team unity, and removing inconsistency derived from multiple locations to complement the busy online space.”
The two Directors they joined the independent agency just one week apart in 2006 and become the new owners of the business they’ve helped shape for nearly two decades, backed by a unnamed
local resident.
The statement added: “They know these streets. They know the homes, the people and the communities that make South West London what it is. Now they’re taking ownership of the business they’ve spent almost 20 years helping to build, bringing a fresh approach as the property market continues to evolve.
“The property market has changed. That’s why Featherstone Leigh is bringing its multiple high street locations together under one flagship hub in the heart of Richmond, creating a dynamic base to serve property sales and lettings across South West London.
Previous owner Robert Leigh said: “Brendan and Fraser have been colleagues and friends for many years. They present a dynamic partnership, and I wish them every success over the coming years.”
Fraser Allen, added: “I’ve specialised in lettings since 2010 because I love the pace of it and the relationships you build along the way. Our ambition is simple: to grow our lettings business while continuing to provide the personal and independent service we’re known for.”
Brendan said: “Fraser is the best lettings agent I’ve ever known, and more importantly, there’s no one I trust more. We’ve spent years watching this area up close. We know what works, what doesn’t, and what it deserves from all property aspects.”
Key Changes:
• Multiple high street sites replaced by one flagship hub in Richmond.
• A renewed focus on local communities and residents.
• Stronger partnerships with local businesses, including sponsorship of Richmond Rugby Football Club.
