Matthew Inker has been promoted to Partner for the independent south coast estate agency, Henry Adams.

Since joining the business in 2011 as branch manager in Emsworth, Matthews has grown the residential sales business considerably and will continue to provide detailed and practical advice to sellers in and around the area.

Matthew said: “Over the past 30 years, Henry Adams has achieved an excellent reputation for doing things the correct way. It has always been important to me that we build on that reputation. I have a great team here in Emsworth with a genuine commitment to providing proper service.”

Gareth Overton, Head of Residential Sales at Henry Adams, added: “I’d like to congratulate Matthew on his promotion to the Henry Adams Partnership. Matthew is an exceptional estate agent with real flair and a determination to get things done.

“He brings an awareness of the full scope of the local property market and an understanding of the complex mortgage market. As a result, he is able to guide people through the moving process from a position of knowledge and experience.

“Matthew is a real asset, not only to us here at Henry Adams, but also to the home buyers and sellers of Emsworth.”

The Emsworth office also houses Henry Adams Holiday Cottages as well as a new lettings operation following the acquisition of Country and Coastal Lettings last year.
