Leading letting agent Martin & Co opens in Macclesfield

There’s great news in store for landlords and tenants in Macclesfield as the latest office of Martin & Co – the UK’s largest and fastest-growing network of specialist letting agents opens its doors on 4th June.

The new Martin & Co franchise – located at 21 Church Street in refurbished premises is owned and managed by husband and wife team – Michael and Margaret Clark.

No strangers to running their own business Michael and Margaret have worked together for the last 25 years. Michael a Building Engineer is a Director of a new build and property development company and Margaret has worked with him to grow this business.

No strangers to property, Michael originally looked at moving into estate agency but saw the changes in the housing market and researched lettings to discover this was bucking the current downward trend of the property sector as a whole.

“Selecting Martin & Co was the easy bit!” commented Michael. “We wanted to continue being in control of our futures and in charge of our own financial destinies. We have seen Martin & Co grow as a brand and felt that buying into a proven franchise model would give us the specialist support we needed to run our own lettings business,” he added. “We are both looking forward to the challenges this will bring.”

During the summer months the Clark’s will be joined by their son Alexander a Business Studies graduate – so it really will be a family affair.

As a team we aim to deliver the most professional lettings and property management service in the area and endorse the award winning customer service Martin & Co is known for.

A choice of service levels is available to suit individual landlord requirements – ranging from tenant-find, to a fully managed service, A range of additional specialist information and advice is also offered, including advice on buy-to-let, credit-referencing of prospective tenants, and insurance products.

Both Michael and Margaret are confident about the prospects for the lettings market in the area, as the trend continues to swing from property ownership towards lettings. “With all the difficulties being experienced in the housing market, demand is clearly on the increase.”

So, all in all, it looks like an open and shut case for getting down to Martin & Co right away!
