I love chatting to people like Joe. Their enthusiasm is infectious.

Joe set up his own estate agency business three & a half years ago, Plymouth Property Sales. No points for guessing where he’s based.

It was great to listen to him tell his story and why he didn’t go down the hybrid route. Hear about the struggles of setting up this own business and how support was never too far away.

He also shares with me all this exciting plans for the future. Definitely one to look out for.
