Finally this week we go to Yorkshire where the county’s largest independent agency -
Dacre, Son & Hartley - has expanded its office network creating new jobs and investing
£50,000 in a new branch in Elland.
The new head of office is Philip Garnett , who has worked at Dacres in Bingley, Keighley
and Ilkley for the past two years after 11 in the public sector.
Born and bred in Elland, Philip, whose family owned and ran a textile mill for six
generations, has always had a keen interest in property.
“It’s been a long-standing ambition to run a property business, and this opportunity with
Dacres, which is such a solid Yorkshire brand, was simply too good to miss” he says.
Philip is joined by local sales negotiator Sarah Chilvers , who has more than 10 years of
experience working for a number of other estate agents in West Yorkshire.
The new branch will initially specialise in residential sales, before expanding into lettings,
and clients will also be able to take advantage of Dacre, Son & Hartley’s surveying and
financial services offerings.
