Eddisons rated Cambridgeshire’s most active property agent

Eddisons is the most active commercial property agent operating in Cambridgeshire, according to deals competition results published last week by property research platform EG Radius.

Eddisons, which has offices in Peterborough Huntingdon and Cambridge, topped the deals leader board for Cambridgeshire, with 224 transactions completed last year.

The Eddisons agents were also ranked second in the East of England region, where the firm’s Bury St Edmunds office serves Suffolk and the surrounding area. The agency team transacted the second largest volume of both office and industrial space in the region - over 156,200 sq ft of offices, and 760,500 sq ft of industrial space.

Eddisons also saw off the competition in the ‘most active agents’ category of the awards.

Directors Richard Jones and Julian Welch scooped first and second place, respectively, in the ranking of most prolific dealmakers, with 59 and 57 deals done in 2022. Colleague and surveyor Matthew Hunt secured fourth place in the rankings, with 38 transactions.

The firm also scored highly across the East of England region, ranking as Suffolk’s third most active firm with 30 transactions by its Bury St Edmunds office. It was also named Lincolnshire’s fourth most active agency team.

The annual EG radius competition is open to all commercial agents completing the region’s property transactions. It’s assessed on the volume of deals done for lettings and sales.

Commenting on the agency’s record of sustained success, Eddisons partner and head of agency, Steve Hawkins, said: “We pride ourselves on going the extra mile for our client. I’m so proud of the team that this approach is paying off. Clients know that when they appoint Eddisons they get the quality of service and professionalism of a national firm but with the expert local knowledge gained from years of experience on the ground.

“It’s really gratifying to see that the hard work of all the team is gaining recognition. We are geared to gain even more momentum as 2023 progresses.”

Eddisons employs over 360 people across 25 UK offices. In 2022 it acquired commercial property firm Budworth Hardcastle with its offices in Peterborough, Kettering and Northampton. This month, Eddisons announced the acquisition of Sheffield property firm and auction specialist Mark Jenkinson & Son.
