The announcemnt highlights: Management Service Fees (‘MSF’) increased by 22% and Group revenue up 13% to £11.1m (2016: £9.9m)

Dorian Gonsalves, CEO of Belvoir commented:

 “In 2017 Belvoir successfully supported franchise growth across all our brands through our Assisted Acquisitions programme and by promoting additional revenue streams such as property sales and property related financial services. 

 “The Board is excited by the continued opportunities for consolidation within the sector with the Belvoir Group well placed to take advantage at both a local and national level. We anticipate that smaller independent agents will continue to look to exit following increased regulation and the prospect of the ban on tenant fees in 2019, and our acquisitions team is working closely with our entrepreneurial franchisees who are keen to invest to grow their business.”
