East Yorkshire letting agency opens new office in “flourishing” retail destination

East Yorkshire letting agency Ultralets has opened a new office at Beverley’s “flourishing” Flemingate centre after an “impressive” period of growth.

Ultralets specialises in property management and maintenance and has operated across Hull and East Yorkshire since 2009. Today, the agency manages almost 900 properties and has its own in-house maintenance team which services its portfolio. It has doubled the size of its team over the past 12 months and now employs 25 people.

To accommodate its growth, and to ensure it can provide the “best service” to landlords and tenants across East Yorkshire, Ultralets has expanded into a 5,000 sq ft office space at Flemingate. The first floor office has a branded ground floor entrance from the centre’s main thoroughfare.

It means another unit at Flemingate is now occupied as the centre, which is owned and operated by Hull based commercial developer Wykeland Group, continues to evolve as a “thriving”, mixed-use development. The arrival of Ultralets adds to the growing number of successful office-based businesses in and around the Flemingate centre.

David Donkin, Wykeland property director, commented: “We’re delighted to have secured another quality tenant at Flemingate and we’re equally pleased to see a local business expanding and choosing the centre as its new home. Ultralets is an established and respected name in the region’s property sector and has grown significantly in recent years.

“Their decision to expand to Flemingate shows how attractive an opportunity the centre is for businesses looking for new office space. With a range of cafes, restaurants and shops for staff to enjoy, Flemingate is also just a short stroll from the centre of Beverley and close to the train station for those commuting.”

Spencer Wood, managing director at Ultralets, added: “In recent years we’ve acquired multiple lettings portfolios, which has significantly expanded our East Yorkshire presence. We’ve been on the hunt for a new office as our team continues to grow and Beverley is the perfect location for us.

“Flemingate has brilliant footfall and is a great place to work with all the surrounding retail and leisure outlets. Crucially, it means we can continue to provide a five-star service to all of our customers across East Yorkshire. We’re thrilled to be in the new office and we’re excited to see what comes next for Ultralets.”

Opened in 2015, Flemingate features a mix of leading national retail and leisure brands and local independents, as well as a growing community of office workers. It is home to national retailers such as Dunelm, Sports Direct, H&M and The Entertainer as well as local independents.
