Equity share offer to senior agency staff as firm marks milestone

London lettings and sales agency Martyn Gerrard has this month celebrated 60 years of fulfilling the property dreams of those living in North and North West London.

To mark the milestone, is launching a new equity share option for its longstanding employees, which will see senior staff offered the opportunity to have an option to become a shareholder in the business.

The agency’s founder, Martyn Gerrard, opened the doors of his first office in Whetstone on May 1964. Today, the agency’s network has grown to span 14 offices across North and Northwest London, having recently opened its newest office in Hampstead, and completing the acquisition of Range Homes to boost the network’s lettings offering.

Current managing director Simon Gerrard says: “We are incredibly proud to continue standing by the values and principles that my father founded this agency on sixty years ago.

“We have always believed that it is people who make a business, which is why I am so proud to have had David Smith, Warren Price and Greg Tsuman as my fellow directors for 44 years, 33 years, and 22 years respectively. 

“We strongly believe in recognising, encouraging, and rewarding our team’s hard efforts to provide best in class services to clients. We are delighted to be launching the new shareholder scheme for our senior staff.”

At the end of 2023, the firm was named London Estate Agent of the Year at The Negotiator Awards, as well as being awarded bronze in the national Medium Estate Agency of the Year category and being highly commended in the Community Champion of the Year category.
