BRM completes more than 800 plot sales in 12 months worth £100m+

The plot sales team at South Yorkshire- and Derbyshire-based BRM Solicitors enjoyed a good close to July, completing more than 800 plot sales in the previous 12 months.

The firm’s plot sales team was specifically recruited in June 2019, in advance of large-scale instructions from several regional developers, based on staffing for success and business modelling to ensure that client needs were met from the outset. This has continued as developers have increased instructions.

In total, 846 homes were sold during the period, an increase of 38% compared to the previous year, with the average selling price increasing to £156,000.

This culminated in a strong close to 30 June, with the team completing more than 127 property completions in one day.

Sales across the regions on that day saw the department complete on properties as far away as Cumbria, average values of around £153,000, total value exceeding £19 million, with the final completion taking place at 11.30pm.

Having already had a busy first half of 2022, the team, led by BRM director Stuart Taphouse, is predicting more of the same.

Adrian Sheehan, had of real estate at BRM, said: “The success comes on the back of the hard work and organisation of the plot sales team and we are looking forward to more completions in the coming months. The figures speak for themselves, but the positive feedback from our clients is particularly gratifying.”

The property team at BRM advises on all aspects of property management and transactions, including portfolio management, finance, and development with specialisms in hospitality, retail and shopping centres, and commercial and residential developments.
