Financial Highlights in the interim : Strong growth in Management Service Fees of 14% to £1.76m (H1 2014: £1.54m) Focused control of costs led to reduced administrative expenses (excluding corporates) by 11% to £1.30m (H1 2014: £1.47m) reflecting less reliance on outsourced professional services and no bad debts in the period Profit after tax maintained at £0.60m (H1 2014: £0.61m) despite the effect of the Election

Mike Goddard, Chief Executive Officer of Belvoir Lettings, commenting on the results, said:
“We are encouraged that our support of franchisee growth through targeted acquisitions is bearing fruit with a 14% growth in our management service fees (MSF).  Even more importantly is our move into a multi-brand strategy with the purchase of Newton Fallowell in July, a well-known East Midlands franchise network of 31 offices. The impact of this and our stronger recruitment pipeline will start to show in H2 2015 and underpins our medium-term growth plans.”
