I am looking to open my own Estae Agency (i know i must be mad)!! Are there any current or ex Estate Agents who might be able to give me some advice and benefit of their experience. Thanks to all in anticipation.

If you're looking to start a new business, then why not look at a Franchise? I work for a franchise company and it's a great way to get started. They give you support & all help/advice you need.

These are smaller franchise companies:

(P.S - There's a Martin & Co in Albany Parade, just off Brentford High St (Opp the Premier Inn) if you wanted to pop in and talk to them?)

Or there's the American giant, known as Re/Max...

My GF's dad used to sell franchises for them about 2 years ago.

Hope that helps.

Good luck mate. Let us know how you get on. At least you've got balls to try something.

I read a Garry Kasparov autobiography years ago. Had a poem in the back that read something like "if you never ate meat from the knife, were just a passive spectator, then that just means you've missed everything in life" ...... probably rhymes in russian!
