The business is headed up by husband-and-wife team Nick and Helen Miller
Nick said: “Piers is joining the business at a pivotal moment – in a period of sustained growth, as we have seen a huge demand for properties in the north Cumbria area in the last year, resulting in record sales.
“Piers will enable us to build on this performance. His unrivalled local knowledge, professional connections and experience with clients are rare commodities and will benefit our present and future clients.”
This recruitment further strengthens a team that has been growing throughout the last year alongside
the increased demand for full service property agency.
