We’ve been named Agent of the Year
For the fourth time we have been awarded the Agent of the Year award by the Relocation Agent Network in a surprise presentation
We were delighted to become reacquainted with a familiar piece of silverware this month, when a certain Simon Whale visited our Sleaford branch to present us with the title of Relocation Agent Network Agent of the Year.
This is the fourth time that we have received this award, last winnning it in 2017 and we feel it recognises our continued hard work, enthusiasm, professionalism, and commitment to the network. Helping people relocate is an important part of our service as a whole, and it is very nice to receive the trophy – which is in good hands and will be looked after ready for the next awards ceremony!

Winning three awards in all, we retained our Best Agent in the East Midlands award which we have won every year since 2011 and also the Customer Service Award by finishing top of the ‘A’ league.
Videos of the award annoucements and trophy presentation are below:
Eagle-eyed readers will have noticed that the Relocation Agent Network awards have come at a different time of year, this was due to a change in ownership at the Network, which was acquired by Realogist in the spring. The network is now headed by Kevin Ellis, Simon Whale. Ian Stratford, and Richard Durrant.
