“Our Seamless team members feel like part of the business. They’ve taken real ownership of the day-to-day and made life easier for everyone here.”
Sophie M., Lettings Manager, A.A. Fishers
The UK estate agency sector is evolving rapidly, shaped by economic uncertainty, stricter regulations, and growing expectations from landlords and tenants alike. For small to mid-sized agencies, the challenge is clear: how do you grow your business while keeping overhead low and service levels high?
One increasingly viable solution: remote support.
Estate agents are navigating a dynamic market. According to data from Propertymark, compliance responsibilities are growing year-on-year, particularly around areas like anti-money laundering (AML), material information disclosure, and health and safety. At the same time, clients expect faster communication, better reporting, and seamless service.
However, many agents are spending more time on admin than on sales or lettings. Tasks like arranging maintenance, chasing arrears, handling compliance paperwork, and updating CRMs eat into valuable client-facing time.
Add in recruitment costs, high turnover, and the need to train new hires, and scaling through traditional means becomes expensive and slow.
Remote support has become a mainstream option for estate agents looking to scale sustainably. Virtual assistants and remote property managers are now being embedded into day-to-day operations across the UK, not just for startups, but for established firms.
Tools like Fixflo, Arthur, and Reapit enable seamless collaboration with remote team members. Cloud-based CRMs, messaging platforms, and compliance tools mean that location no longer defines capability. Agencies are starting to adopt remote roles for listings management, admin, tenant communication, renewals, arrears chasing, and more.
A 2023 Zoopla report found that estate agents using tech-enabled remote teams reported higher productivity and faster response times, without increasing local payroll.
Most importantly, remote support enables agents to focus on what they do best: winning instructions, closing deals, and delivering a personal touch that technology alone can’t replicate.
