Your Move is one of the UK’s leading estate and letting agency brands with over 150 branches from Inverness to Cornwall. All Your Move branches are owned independently as fully franchised businesses.

Our franchise partners run their branches their way, making decisions across the board giving them complete control over how they operate. All with the support of centrally negotiated contracts offering economies of scale, a network of like-minded franchise partners to discuss business challenges and successes with along with central teams to help across training, marketing, compliance and planning for growth.

What are the options to join the movement and become a Your Move franchise?

1. Convert your business to a Your Move Franchise

You might be thinking about how you can grow your existing estate agency business. There are many reasons to switch to a Your Move Franchise including benefiting from economies of scale, taking advantage of our Assisted Acquisitions Programme where we can help you find and fund lettings book purchases plus you will be connected to like-minded entrepreneurs and central support – all helping and supporting each other.

2. Sell your lettings business

We are actively looking for letting acquisitions on behalf of our Franchise Partners. Our Assisted Acquisitions team have experience with over 50 acquisitions so they can help guide all parties through the process.

We act as an introducer for our Franchise owners, providing a framework for purchases through to completion.  Our experience ensures that the sales process is handled professionally. Every part of the process is treated with sensitivity as we operate in a respectful manner.

If this sounds interesting all parties are protected with our Franchise Partners signing confidentiality agreements before any information is disclosed. If you would like an informal chat about selling your lettings business, you know you’ll be protected.

3. Buy a Your Move franchise

We do occasionally have Franchise Partners who are looking to sell their business. More often than not this is down to retirement. If you already have Estate Agency experience it’s a great way to get up and running with your own business especially if there is a ready-made portfolio of rental properties.

In addition, the likely running costs, potential growth and profitability are easier to forecast.
