Your Move Nolan Throw is continuing its expansion with the acquisition of Woodford & Co. in Oundle. The deal marks the launch of Your Move Oundle, with owners Sean Nolan and Sam Throw being supported by our Assisted Acquisitions team. This is Sam and Sean’s second acquisition in the past 12 months.
The Woodford & Co. lettings portfolio of 160 fully managed landlords will now transition to Your Move Oundle, ensuring ongoing, high-quality management under new ownership. All eight members of the Woodford & Co. lettings team will remain in place, with founder Chris Woodford staying on as a partner to support a smooth transition.
Chris shared his thoughts on the decision: "The property business, and particularly the rental sector, operates within a fast-evolving industry, with changes to technology, procedures and legislation taking place on a surprisingly frequent basis.
“More onerous rules are likely to apply in the near future and with this in mind, and after 25 years of trading, I have decided to sell the company to a progressive, experienced firm, who can add resources, systems and support to the current rental team.”
Chris noted that Your Move Nolan Throw stood out amongst multiple options due to a strong alignment in values and a clear synergy between the two companies. He found additional reassurance in the team’s proven track record of successful acquisitions.
Sean and Sam said: "Woodford & Co. are well-regarded, well-established property consultants and auctioneers, and we’re proud to continue their legacy under the Your Move banner. We’re thrilled that all staff are staying on - they’re a strong team and bring continuity and trust to the landlords they serve.
"Personally, this area means a lot, I [Sam] went to school in Oundle, so I’m already seeing familiar faces. It’s great to bring that local connection into the business."
Kate Ashley-Ives, Franchise Director at LSL, said: "We’re delighted to see Sean and Sam taking advantage of the Assisted Acquisitions Programme once again. They bring energy, drive and a deep understanding of what landlords and tenants need. There’s no stopping them, and we’re already looking forward to what comes next.”
It pays to be with Your Move
