ESTATE agency Simon Brien Residential has spent £500,000 to relocate to a new 1,500 sq ft office in Ballyhackamore - prompted by an uplift in the housing market and the ongoing high demand for homes in that area.

The high-spec fit-out across all three floors of the building will facilitate an anticipated increase in employee numbers, with recruitment already under way for several positions in property management and lettings valuations.

The agency, headed by sector veteran Simon Brien, has grown significantly over the past three years and currently has more than 50 staff members at its four offices in Belfast, Holywood and Newtownards.

“We've had a presence in east Belfast for 10 years but felt the time was right to make this acquisition and relocate our team to a larger contemporary office and more vibrant working environment," Mr Brien said.
