Chris Wells
Welwyn Garden City AND Milton Keynes and Bletchley
A two-minute read.
We love sharing our success stories with you.
And nothing gives us a bigger buzz than seeing our franchisees doing well.
In Chris Wells’ case, he’s done INCREDIBLY well since launching his EweMove business.
Chris has worked in estate agency since he was 17 years-old and has experience selling homes in Europe and England.
We caught up with Chris recently, and he spoke openly about his EweMove experiences.
What’s your background Chris?
“I started in agency selling properties in Malta. I did that for two years and then worked at various corporate agencies learning the ins and outs of the industry.”
What made you consider running your own business?
“I was working all the hours that god sends and not getting well paid for it. I’ve always wanted to be my own boss, so I began researching my options.”
Why did you choose EweMove?
“I looked at many ways of setting up my own agency. However, the start-up costs if I was going alone and setting up from scratch are very high. So, I investigated franchising options, and EweMove stood out head and shoulders as the right opportunity for me. I believe that the future of estate agency will see hybrid brands and agencies flourish.
“I crunched the numbers and saw EweMove gave me a great chance to earn the kind of money I wanted and deserved. I also loved how welcoming everyone at head office is and that I could speak with Nick Neill and discuss how he made a success of his franchise before becoming our Managing Director.”
When did you open for business?
“I launched in September 2020 and thanks to the support and guidance I recieved I hit the ground running.”
You’re relatively new to EweMove – how have you found it?
“Fantastic. I’ve sold multi-millions pounds worth of homes up to £1.75m and banked great commissions which reflect the level of personal service and care EweMove allows me to provide my clients. Knowing that all the back end and organisational stuff is sorted means I can focus on winning new business and delivering outstanding results for clients.
“I worked out that for me to earn the sort of money I made selling two homes a month with EweMove, I’d need to sell 10-12 homes if I were employed by an agency. I sell a lot more than two homes a month now, so I am very optimistic about the future.
What’s next for you?
“I’ve recently taken on the Milton Keynes, and Bletchley exclusive territory and am excited about what can be achieved there using EweMove’s systems, techniques and my enthusiasm and knowledge.”
What would you say to anyone considering a EweMove franchise?
“If you are prepared to work hard, learn, and take a qualified risk, I can’t see any downside to joining EweMove. The brand goes down well with clients, the support you get is exceptional, and everything is in place for you to succeed IF you’re willing to put the initial hours and effort in.
