For Immediate Release

2 July 2014

 

 

 

 

BELVOIR LETTINGS PLC

(the "Company" or "Belvoir")

 

Two further acquisitions completed

 

Belvoir Lettings PLC (AIM: BLV), one of the UK's largest lettings franchises, is delighted to announce two new acquisitions following the 10 significant acquisitions completed by Belvoir franchisees in 2013, highlighting the continued growth of the Belvoir portfolio.

 

Belvoir's first acquisition is of "Key Estate Agents", an independent lettings agent in Attleborough, which will be combined with Belvoir Nuneaton and represents a four-fold increase in the number of properties managed for this Belvoir branch. The acquisition will be financed by a loan from Belvoir, funded through existing cash facilities.

 

Additionally, in line with Belvoir's stated strategy to reduce corporate-owned offices by franchising out, the Belvoir Grantham office has been acquired by the existing franchise owner of the Belvoir Bourne and Belvoir Spalding agencies.

 

These transactions demonstrate successful progress towards Belvoir's strategic goals to complete acquisitions of offices to expand Belvoir's UK offering, both for franchise owners and corporately owned outlets, pending franchising when appropriate.

 

Mike Goddard, Chairman and CEO commented:

 

"Belvoir's stated strategy of organic and bolt-on acquisitions to expand the Company's geographical presence is further demonstrated by today's news. We are making good progress expanding our office base across the UK and we continue to look at a number of acquisition opportunities to support this strategy. We look forward to updating the market on further opportunities in due course."
