The new sales and lettings branch in Stratford Road has been named Your Move Breckon Woodley - inspired by Kitty’s family heritage in estate agency.

The opening extends Your Move’s operations across the West Midlands and marks a significant personal milestone for Kitty.

Having previously worked as a dental nurse, she followed her passion to embark on a career in estate agency after having children and now, with the support of Your Move, she's been able to realise her lifelong career goal of opening her own branch.

Kitty said: “To be a part of one of UK’s biggest estate agency brands really boosted my confidence, knowing I’d have extensive business development and coaching support behind me to turn my passion into a career.

"Lee and the LSL Estate Agency Franchising teams have already been an immense help, from expert answers to all of my questions to help me feel at ease, through to Your Move’s support with fitting out the premises.

“After scoping multiple locations, Stratford Road in Shirley stood out as the clear choice because of its prime central location within the Shirley suburb. 

"We’ve completely redesigned and refurbished the office, maintaining Your Move’s distinct exterior branding and offering a modern, fresh space inside for our customers.”
