pip Launches New Sales Business

News release

06th February 2014

A leading Lincoln property agency has launched a sales division to meet demand from its clients and the market.

pip Lettings has now expanded its property services offered to include property sales, under the umbrella of pip Property Group. The new sales business will sell residential properties within Lincoln and a 15-mile radius for both homeowners and landlords, including properties which are currently let and are being sold as a going concern.

Director Michael Hollamby said: “We’re delighted to enter this phase of the business. It had been something we’d planned to do eventually, but the demand was already coming in from landlords we either currently represent or ones we’d previously worked for asking us to sell properties on their behalf.

“It just made sense that we took that further and opened up a fully fledged sales division to meet that demand now. We opened pip Lettings six years ago as we didn’t believe the there was enough flexibility in the market place to fit into the schedule of people who were at work during the week. That same level of service – evening and weekend valuations and viewings – will be carried over to our sales department.

“The market is getting stronger every day, so we expect great things from the sales side of the business. Landlords with pip Lettings can also benefit from a more comprehensive service as we can now buy and sell properties on their behalf.”

A new website has been created which allows property hunters to search for their perfect home, and the properties for both the sale and rental markets can be found there as well as on Rightmove and Zoopla. The pip Property Group also has a maintenance arm.

Michael brings a wealth of experience to the sales market, having started his career as an administrative assistant in the sales department at an estate agency over 20 years ago. He moved on to work as a negotiator before completing two years of training to become a valuer and then moved on to become a branch manager of several leading national estate agents.

He and his wife Katie set up the family business pip Lettings in 2008 along with Katie’s father Graham Webb.
