Description

What would you do if you had to start your estate agency business all over again — with no leads, no listings, and no name recognition?

In this episode, Iain Cooper  shares the exact strategies he used to grow his estate agency in Bromley, and what he’d do differently if he were starting from scratch today.

We get into:

  • His most effective lead generation strategies in 2025
  • How to build trust fast and convert more market appraisals
  • The underrated tactics most self-employed agents ignore
  • Balancing community work with business growth
  • Why he believes self-employment isn’t for everyone
  • What agents should stop doing if they want to scale


Whether you’re just getting started or trying to level up your business, this is a goldmine of practical advice and hard-won lessons from someone who’s been there.

🎧 Listen now and learn how to grow a sustainable, referral-based estate agency — without burning out or selling your soul.
