Keller Williams UK announces launch of newest market centre in London Bridge

The UK division of estate agency brand, Keller Williams, has announced the launch of its latest market centre in London Bridge.

Keller Williams’ market centres provide agents with the opportunity to set up their own business and benefit from access to co-working office space, training and mentoring.

Keller Williams UK is already operating three other market centres in Central London, Leeds and Glasgow.

Agents initially retain 63% of their commissions, with the remainder covering the costs of all benefits the market centre offers. Once they reach a ‘cap’ of £60k, (less in other parts of the UK) the agent then retains 90% of their commission with the remaining 10% going to Keller Williams.

The London Bridge centre has already chosen 20 of its initial 25 agents, with a full launch scheduled for early August.

Agents working out of the London Bridge market centre will be predominantly covering South East London, from Southbank down to Croydon and Beckenham.

Ben Taylor, managing director of Keller Williams UK, said: “We are very excited to announce the launch of our latest market centre in London Bridge. Our extraordinary proposition is so compelling thanks to its focus on extensive training and empowering our agents with the latest technology.

“We are looking for driven entrepreneurial people with a desire to be a business owner. Whether they wish to build an empire or a small profitable business that fits around their lifestyle.”

The London Bridge market centre will be co-owned and operated by Chris Buckler. The KW model encourages a strong investor group, which London Bridge benefits from.

Buckler, who is also Keller Williams UK’s director of technology, has worked in the property industry for almost a decade and in business consulting with Deloitte. He previously set up his own estate agency in the Midlands - which was sold last summer.

He commented: “The London Bridge market centre is an ideally located hub for ambitious agents who want to increase their earning potential in an environment which embraces technology and champions comprehensive training.”

Keller Williams is the largest estate agency brand in the world with over 185,000 associates working in 34 countries.
