Estate agency, backed by former top-flight footballer, expands – London Wallet

Simpson & Marwick, the Edinburgh-based estate agent, is expanding its East Lothian presence.

The estate agency, which was acquired from the Moray Group last October by Sean Nicol and former Hearts footballer Gary Wales, will invest a six-figure sum in its North Berwick office.

Hannah Graham has been promoted from associate director to area director to spearhead the expansion which promises “innovative” business methods, including new marketing strategies.

The owners of the Simpson & Marwick brand, established in 1886, want to build on an already large share of the market in East Lothian.

Wales said: “We already have a strong presence in the area and have exciting plans to grow further, spearheaded by Hannah.”
