The winners are decided purely on the basis of customer feedback.

 

Paul Chapman, National Managing Director for Sales and Lettings proudly celebrated these successes; “This is a real testament to the hard work and effort that everyone in our business puts in to keep our customers moving. This year has been particularly tough given the challenges we face as a result of Covid-19, so it makes these wins and customer recognition even more special.”

 

Jonathan Simpson, Divisional Managing Director for the North commented “What a fantastic achievement to be recognised by our customers, that’s what makes winning the ESTAS so extraordinary. Our people work so hard all year to deliver the best sales and lettings service bar none and to have the customers endorse that again this year is just brilliant.”
