£380,000

Profit before Tax
£98,000
Here is an excellent opportunity to acquire a very successful well established independent Dorset coastal estate agency in a prime location available either on a leasehold or freehold basis that has been running very successfully for over 25 years.
The company does not currently deal with residential lettings or commercial property as a matter of choice so this is obviously an area where additional profit could be made. The EBITDA i.e. profit before tax, averages out at just under £100,000 a year over the last three years.
The freehold asking price is based on an estimated valuation of the property of £150,000. If the business is sold on a leasehold basis, the annual starting rent will be £20,000 p.a.
The company provides an extremely comprehensive advisory service to help people to navigate the ever-complex process of buying a home.
Here are some attractive features of the business: -
It operates from spacious modern office in prime central locationÂ
Highly regarded and recognised business with impressive social media / google reviews.
Enviable, long established local connections with solicitors, surveyors and businesses.
The business enjoys repeat business from clients, with a great track record of annual success
The business has an extensive database of clients and applicants.
The business operates from a thriving town with excellent scope to develop business in lettings, management, holiday lettings and financial services, making many options for business growth and income.
The number of listings the company has is naturally seasonal, as with all estate agencies, but the business currently has approximately 55 listings as of early March 2026. The turnover and profitability have been fairly consistent year on year.
The business has an exceptionally loyal and dedicated staff that are used to working mainly unsupervised.
The business is being offered for sale for the first time in its history due to the retirement of the owners.
The company would make an excellent stand alone for an existing estate agent looking to run their own business, but also an excellent bolt on to an existing chain of estate agents.
The owners currently work relatively little within the business. There is therefore an exceptional opportunity for a new owner to expand the business considerably.
There will be a reasonable handover period.
The basis of the sale is on a cash free/debt free basis.
