Challenges & Goals of Selling the Estate Agency

After many years running a successful agency, Jenny Clark, owner of Eaton-Terry Clark, decided the time was right to sell and move on to the next chapter of life. With a strong reputation in Exmouth and a loyal client base, it was important that the sale process was handled with care, discretion, and professionalism.

The goal was to find a buyer who would respect the business’s legacy while ensuring continuity of service for staff, landlords, and tenants.

Atomic Consultancy’s Approach

Atomic Consultancy began by providing a detailed valuation of the business and preparing it for market. With deep knowledge of the industry and a wide-reaching buyer network, Atomic discreetly introduced the opportunity to a shortlist of suitable acquirers.

Bradleys, a leading independent agency with a strong presence in the South West, was identified as the right fit. Atomic guided both sides through the sale from start to finish, including negotiations, legal coordination, and communication, ensuring a seamless and supportive experience for Jenny throughout.
