Estate agency Walker Wylie is gearing up for expansion with an office move as it marks its first year of operation.

Since January, the firm has seen sales jump by more than a third, with the most marked increase in the city’s west end and southside property markets.

It has completed its office move from Queen’s Park to Ashley Street, Charing Cross, ahead of a planned recruitment drive. The agency is also keen to expand across the Central Belt.
