We're a Social Agent

Ready to take on upturn in market

Three former West Midlands students are now managing a client property portfolio worth more than £200 million in less than five years.

Now the energetic trio - Carina Hill, Shane Bland and James Ackrill whose entrepreneur father, Rod Ackrill, was president of the Birmingham Chamber of Commerce, have moved their susscessful property empire, Centrick Property, into Commercial Street, Birmingham.

Since their humble beginnings in Warwickshire their business, which concentrates on residential, commercial and mixed-use estate management, residential sales and lettings and property maintenance, have received major instructions on apartments and commercial buildings across five counties - Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Warwickshire, Oxfordshire and the West Midlands.

Director Carina Hill said: "When we started Centrick in 2005 we had one simple goal - to deliver a better service. The three core strands of the business complement each other well and help us to deliver an accessible and more effcient service."

She added that the company's ARLA-regulated lettings division and the company's location next to the Mailbox meant that "a fast through put of homes and apartments to let could be achieved."

Ms Hill also revealed that 80 percent of the company's sales instructions in 2009 had become agreed sales by the end of the year and a closer relationship with builders and developers was being pursued.

She added that the company now employed nearly 30 people and the knowledge thay had gained across the West Midlands backed by client testimonials meant they were ideally poised to take full advantage of the upturn.
