Lomond is expanding its presence in Leeds following the acquisition of the lettings portfolio of Headingley agent, Right Let Leeds.

The deal marks another step in the company’s regional growth strategy, with the portfolio set to be managed under Lomond’s Yorkshire flagship brand, Linley & Simpson.

Established in 2012 by Ross Munro and Maani Zakikhani, Right Let Leeds was built on a clear vision to fill a gap in the market for an agency that cares for each property as if it were their own.

Under Lomond’s ownership, and with the expertise of Linley & Simpson, landlords can expect the same high standard of service to which they are accustomed.

Leadership perspectives

Munro and Zakikhani say: “Over the past 13 years, our growth has been driven by word of mouth and the loyalty of our landlords.

“As we take some time out for the next chapter, we’re delighted to be passing our business to Lomond, a business that is equipped to provide our landlords with the tools and capabilities they need in the changing legislative landscape.”

David Mear, Managing Director at Linley & Simpson, added: “We’re delighted to welcome Right Let Leeds and these new clients to Linley & Simpson. Right Let Leeds’ reputation as a long-standing trusted partner for professional landlords make them a perfect fit for the ethos of our business and we look forward to embarking on this partnership together.”
