The Mildenhall office have seen strong demand for quality rental property over recent weeks, with last week seeing a whopping 14 new tenancies agreed. The american military market remains particularly busy with demand mostly in the £850 per month to £2000 per month price ranges.

The team at the Mildenhall office recently took part in a photo shoot in readiness for publication of the new marketing brochure. It was a relaxed affair with photographer Gavin Jones taking a selection of posed and ‘action’ shots. No doubt the ‘photoshop’ software will be utilized heavily to get the team looking their best. Shots of the shoot to be added shortly……..
