The Property Franchise Group has agreed a five-year strategic partnership with Let Alliance and HomeLet.

TPFG has agreed an exclusive deal for its 15 agency brands and their 150,000-strong lettings book with the PIB-Barbon owned referencing and insurance businesses that offers its franchisees, landlords and tenants access to the Vision Plus portal and its various services.

TPFG’s Gareth Samples said: “We manage more properties than any other group in the United Kingdom, through 900 franchised territories. It is my role to negotiate deals that understand our scale, and benefit each of our franchisees by giving the best products and services in the market, along with the best financial arrangements.

Andy Halstead, chief executive at Let Alliance and HomeLet, added: “Gareth and The Property Franchise Group executive team set us a challenge, to develop a proposition that they could confidently recommend to their franchisees, on an exclusive and long-term basis. We responded, using the resources across our business and PIB, and were able to deliver a rent guarantee programme, the scale of which has not been seen in the UK until now.”
