Stirling Ackroyd Group renews partnership with Goodlord through to 2025

The Stirling Ackroyd Group has renewed its partnership with Goodlord until 2025 to continue to benefit from the company's lettings platform and Rent Protection Insurance.

The Goodlord team

Apr 29, 2022

The Stirling Ackroyd Group, one of the best-known names in lettings in the capital and the south east, has renewed its partnership with Goodlord for a further three years, signing on to use the company's award-winning lettings platform and Rent Protection and Legal Expenses Insurance through to 2025.

The Stirling Ackroyd Group, which boasts more than a century of experience in lettings, has been steadily growing its footprint in London and the South East through a series of strategic acquisitions and organic growth. In 2022, the Group intends to expand its network of over 30 branches with further acquisitions in the capital and the South East.

The Group began working with Goodlord in 2020 to help it standardise processes and programmes across its lettings businesses. It is now using the technology company's cloud-based lettings platform in all of its branches to streamline the pre-tenancy process.

The Group is also using Goodlord's market-leading Rent Protection Insurance policy to protect its landlords. The strength of the comprehensive policy has allowed the Group to offer all of its landlords more protection, while providing material revenue gains to Stirling Ackroyd's business.

Bruce Evans, Managing Director Group Operations at Stirling Ackroyd, comments:

"Goodlord's lettings platform has proven an invaluable asset as we look to centralise and standardise our lettings processes across our rapidly growing group. We are planning more acquisitions in the coming years and we're confident that we can continue to scale our lettings business at speed thanks to Goodlord's industry leading technology."

William Reeve, CEO at Goodlord, comments:

"The Stirling Ackroyd Group is one of the most experienced and recognised brands in lettings and we're proud to be able to support their ambitious growth plans through our platform and products. The Group's expertise will also continue to be an invaluable asset to our team as we continue to improve our offering for all of our customers, their landlords and their tenants."
