Well – what a year it’s been! Amidst Brexit uncertainty, too many Government shake-ups to count and Stamp Duty will-they-won’t-they changes, I decided to set up my own Estate Agency. Some thought I was mad, others thought I was brave, but one year on and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Here are just some of the highlights:September 2018
… and we are LIVE!
To celebrate, we launched our first competition – a ‘Get on Board’ #selfiewithjt, where all over NW London you spotted one of my boards and took a picture with it. Two lucky people won Red Letter Days, worth £200 each.
We were also featured in Property Industry Eye and Agent Today, announcing the launch of JT Homes. An exciting month all round.
October
50,000 flyers made their way through letterboxes across Hendon, Golders Green, Finchley and Hampstead, announcing our launch.
We partnered with Ner Yisrael Synagogue and the Peace of Mind charity for an online auction – giving one lucky person £750 off their next property sale.
November
We sold our first two properties – which was particularly exciting as they got snapped up so fast that they didn’t even get advertised online!
December
Getting into the community spirit, JT Homes proudly sponsored Hasmonean Primary School’s Winter Wonderland Funday. I had a great time manning the BBQ whilst giving out property advice - free with your burger! Giving back to the local area which fuels my business is what it’s all about for me.
January
JT Homes kicked off 2019 by doing some good – this time with an auction for Schneider Children’s Medical Centre of Israel. Once again, we were delighted to give £750 off someone’s next property sale.
February
We enjoyed networking at the NAEA Propertymark conference and hearing pearls of wisdom from a range of impressive speakers.
March
Competition time! We were so proud to have captured stunning drone footage of the main areas we cover (Hendon, Golders Green, Finchley and Hampstead), and decided to have some fun with it at the same time! Four lucky winners who entered across Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter & Instagram walked away with vouchers to the 02 Centre, Finchley Road, after watching our videos and answering questions.
News articles at the time focused on the various reasons property won’t sell in today’s market, but this was clearly not the case here at JT Homes as our instructions continued to fly off the shelves.
April
No fools here, as more of you (rightly!) felt it was the best time to sell your property, and the instructions (and glowing testimonials!) kept on coming in.
May
Another 25,000 flyers went out – highlighting the outstanding first six months we had at JT Homes. Onwards and upwards!
June, July & August
As the weather heated up, so did JT Homes - with houses continuing to sell like hot cakes! It was a busy summer and we felt satisfied that so many clients enjoyed the sunshine from the comfort of their new homes that we had matched them up with.
September 2019
September was our best month yet, with the most properties sold – despite all the doom and gloom of the housing market. We feel immensely proud to have lived up to our ambition when we launched one year ago of providing an unrivalled bespoke service and ensuring the best results for our clients every time.
Thank you for your support! We’re so excited about what year 2 of JT Homes will bring and can’t wait to help you on your property journey!
