Independent Ipswich sales and lettings agency, Henry Rose, will now be based at the Kesgrave branch of Fenn Wright following its acquisition.

Established in 2012, the firm has built up exceptional local knowledge and long-standing connections within the community. Founder, James Cornish (main image, right), joins Fenn Wright as Associate Partner and brings over 25 years’ estate agency experience, adding further depth to the company’s leadership team.

Ian Fry, Head of Estate Agency at Fenn Wright (main image, centre), said: “James is quite simply Mr Kesgrave. His reputation, experience and connections in the local market are exceptional.

“Bringing James and Property Manager, Harry Baker, into Fenn Wright is a major step in strengthening our position, and supports our ambition to establish Kesgrave as a clear market-leading location for sales and lettings.”

Continuity and commitment

Henry Rose will continue to service both new and existing landlords and tenants as Henry Rose, ensuring continuity, expertise, and commitment to delivering the high level of service their clients value.

James Cornish added: “Joining Fenn Wright brings several important benefits to our landlords, and I would like to reassure them that both Harry and I will remain fully involved in the business and day-to-day management.

“As one of the most respected and established firms in the region, Fenn Wright provides long-term security, enhanced compliance support and means that we can continue to deliver a highly personal service, with increased exposure and cross-marketing opportunities.”

The acquisition represents another positive step forwards for Fenn Wright following the opening of a new office in Basildon earlier this year. The firm is actively seeking additional acquisition opportunities.
