Yorkshire agents announce merger to become leading brand

Two well-known East Yorkshire estate agents have joined forces to merge their businesses with a new name and branding.

Stanifords and Grays Estate Agents – both with offices in Beverley - have merged to create a new company called Staniford Grays. 

The move brings together decades of experience and knowledge of the property market with a formidable new local company.

New branding and signage have been unveiled which reflects a shared commitment to delivering transparent and high-quality services to homeowners.

The new company will operate from existing premises on Sow Hill Road in Beverley and West End in Swanland where the experienced team aim to become the leading estate agency in the East Riding.

The yellow and grey brand displaying the Staniford Grays name will be seen on signage and sale boards and the company will operate from the Staniford website. 

Existing offices at Beverley and Swanland have rebranded under the Staniford Grays name.

The move will see the merger of two teams into a new 10-plus workforce covering East Yorkshire. 

Jamie Cammish, director of Staniford Grays, who has more than 15 years of experience in the local property market, said: “Our two companies have shared values as well as a passion for delivering excellent customer service and a real understanding of the market.

“We are confident that bringing together our combined knowledge and understanding of the local market under the new Staniford Grays brand will be a real benefit to our clients. 

“We are looking forward to building on our combined experience in the industry including the knowledge and expertise we have built up in working with local residential developers.”

“We are really excited to see our new sale boards up across the county and looking forward to helping our first customers on their new home journey during 2023 and beyond.”

Fellow director Ben Wright, who has worked for Stanifords for 17 years, added: “This is an exciting development for our companies. Both Stanifords and Grays have an excellent reputation in Beverley, Swanland and across East Yorkshire and we want to really increase our impact in the region under our new brand.”

“Stanifords has been a leading independent agent in our region for almost 35 years and we’re looking forward to building on that reputation - focused on our shared values and delivering a trustworthy and professional service.”
