Property market round-up Spring 2016
James Greenwood, managing director of Stacks Property Search, explains why he is initiating a major London recruitment drive.
London clients have, historically, been managed from a single London office. But increasingly, clients are asking us for help finding property in further flung areas of the capital. Our strategy for providing them with the best possible service is to open a network of satellite offices across the capital.
This works for us well in the country; our business model is a head office that looks after administration, including marketing and training; and a network of locally based regional directors who have very specialised local knowledge. Some of the regional offices are run on a franchise basis; others are managed by head office with locally based associate directors at the helm. All are supported by a well-established support network between head office and individual regions.
We are now offering business opportunities for property search experts in the capital. We are interested in speaking to self-motivated professionals who would like the autonomy to effectively run their own business, but with back-up, administrative help, marketing support, and general assistance from an efficient central office.
There’s a huge business advantage for regional directors. The Stacks brand carries a massive amount of weight, goodwill and trust, while the combined expertise of the group is immense, with some heavy-weight well-known and established names who lend authority not to mention professional guidance.
Operating techniques are tried and tested and are in place to be rolled out in new locations. And new directors can take advantage of the numerous business relationships that exist.”

How we can help you
View our property finder services
When making probably the most important financial decision of your life, it pays to have the right advisors at your side.
Downsizing or Resizing
Retirement or semi-retirement is an exciting stage in life. Finding the right home to live in and enjoy it to the full is important. We know that and will do all that we can to understand what you’re looking for… before starting to search. And search we will, until we find the house of your dreams.
Moving from Abroad
Relocating is time consuming and stressful. We regularly work with clients who live abroad. We hunt, short-list, prepare your viewings, and make the search process as easy as possible. We oversee the negotiations, manage the conveyancing, and deal with the headaches, so you can concentrate on other aspects of your move.
Holiday Home Hunt
A holiday home is often an interesting mix of investment and heartfelt connection. You want to use it, but you may well also be keen for others to use it too. We can advise you on what factors to consider in making your decision. And we can then find the perfect holiday home for you to enjoy.
Investing in UK Property
Others say, ‘location, location, location’. We say, ‘location, purpose, price, capital growth, rental returns’… the list goes on. Knowing the market is critical. Local knowledge is key. We ensure all aspects of your investment decision are addressed. Finding, analysing, negotiating, and completing… it’s what we do.
