Industry veteran joins LonRes board

Ennis said: "I have been a big fan of LonRes for many years and logging on to the platform is one of the first things I do every morning.  

“It is an essential tool and enables agents to share and do business in a professional and collaborative way.  Its quality and data are by far the most detailed and comprehensive of all the platforms out there.  I'm looking forward to working with the board to help grow and develop this market-leading product even further."

Commenting on the appointment, Anthony Payne, managing director of LonRes, said: “We are delighted that John has agreed to join the LonRes board.  He brings with him a wealth of experience.
