New branch opens as franchisees celebrate three years with brand


Todays other news


The franchise owners of a Parkers branch have marked their third year under the brand by opening a second office.

Brendan and Lisa Kay’s new venture is in the village of Eynsham, around four miles east of Witney – where their main office is located – and opens its doors officially this month. 

Previously, the Kays owned Martin & Co’s Witney branch, before combining their lettings business with the acquisition of Witney independent sales and lettings agency Oliver James.

In 2019, the Kays rebranded their Martin & Co business as Property Franchise Group stable mate Parkers.

“The Eynsham office is something we’ve been working towards for quite a while, so we’re delighted to have got to the point where we’ve opened the business. We’ve always had more branches in mind and Covid put some of those plans on ice for a while, but we’ve had a fantastic past year and now opening this new office has capped that off nicely” explains Brendan Kay.

“Eynsham is a large and growing village and hasT been earmarked by the government to become a garden village – meaning 2,500 new homes will be built on the edge of the existing village. It’s a great area with superb property values and is very much part of the West Oxfordshire commuter belt, while also being close to the countryside.

“It’s also an area that didn’t have a physical estate agent so the combination of all of that made it the obvious choice for us.”

The new Parkers Eynsham branch will be run by incoming manager Josh Wicks, who has relocated to West Oxfordshire from Royal Leamington Spa, where he was branch manager of Allsop & Allsop.
