Halls - one of the UK’s leading independent firms of estate agents, chartered surveyors, auctioneers and valuers - is continuing its growth plans by opening a new branch in Wellington.
The company, which has its headquarters at Battlefield, Shrewsbury, will open the new office at 32 Market Street, Wellington at the beginning of September, initially employing four staff.
Managed by experienced estate agent Matt Gilbert, the new branch will cover Wellington, Telford and the surrounding area, stretching as far as Bridgnorth, Albrighton and Cosford.
The Wellington office will link up with Halls’ network of nine other offices, including Shrewsbury to the west, Whitchurch to the north and Kidderminster to the south.
“We already have many clients in east Shropshire and we feel that Wellington is the ideal location to open a new office,” said Halls managing director Jon Quinn. “We aim to provide an even better service to existing clients whilst also expanding our customer base and extending our footprint.
“We believe there is a great opportunity for an agency of Halls’ calibre in this part of the county and are delighted to have recruited Matt, who has a wealth of property market experience in the area.
“There are so many houses being built in the Telford area and Wellington is the ideal base from which to cover them.
“We are focused on continuing to grow our dynamic company and it’s our intention to open more offices in the not too distant future, staffed by people who are trained the Halls way and are passionate about the property industry.”
Matt, who lives in Ternhill, has five years’ experience working as an estate agent in the Telford area.
“I will have a great team with me and potential clients can expect an unrivalled personal service and integrity from our new office. I can’t wait to get started. I joined Halls at the start of this year and it’s a great company to work for.”
