Black Brick is expanding out of prime central London, the Home Counties, and the South East, with the launch of a new country and coast department.
The buying agency recently made two new appointments to help with the expansion, with Anna Sharp now representing Cornwall, and Rupert Stephenson heading up Devon, Dorset, and Somerset.
Both based out in the field, Sharp brings with her more than a decade of experience in the prime Cornwall market, having lived there all her life. She started her career at Savills before moving into the buying arena.
Stephenson has been in the property industry his entire career, starting in central London in the late 1990s. He expanded into Surrey, Sussex, and Hampshire and specialised in the market of St Georges Hill. After 20 of running his own land and estate agency, he started renovating properties and relocated to the Devon countryside, transforming a farm and outbuildings overlooking Dartmoor.
Black Brick’s Camilla Dell commented: “After an incredible start to the year, we are delighted to expand into the West Country with the addition of Anna and Rupert, who will be a tremendous asset to us. This is a pivotal moment for the firm as we expand outside of London and the South East for the first time.”
“I’ve chosen these areas first, in an operation to rollout into other parts of the UK over the next 12 months, as I believe they will have a revival of popularity.”
“Anna and Rupert are highly experienced and talented buying agents and I have no doubt will make a huge success of their roles as regional directors for Black Brick West Country,” she added.
