The firm, which has more than 500 affiliates across the UK, says it is looking to work with more East Midlands property experts to work on its hybrid model.

People now have a great alternative to the traditional estate agent – one that will save them loads of commisery and give them a brilliant service.”

Bruce added: “Customers love our passion for service and our willingness to go the extra mile. We want to work with people who focus on people, not just property.

“In return, we offer our local property experts the support and flexibility to grow a successful business, the chance to reap the rewards of their hard work and the opportunity to join an exciting global business that is transforming an industry.”
