Two New Hires at look4aproperty.com

Rob Sendall, former CEO of The Live Organisation, and Tim Burchell, former owner of Burchell Edwards, have both joined UK portal look4aproperty.com.

look4aproperty.com was established in 2004 by entrepreneur Aaron Turner. James Caan, entrepreneur and star of the BBC’s business pitching show Dragon’s Den, became chairman in late 2008.

The portal has since launched its Look4AProperty | Money product, which offers interest-free loans to cover unavoidable moving costs such as stamp duty and legal fees.

“Tim brings significant knowledge and expertise in the world of estate agency,” explained Caan. “We plan to put this to good use as we continue to roll out Look4AProperty | Money across the UK.”

“look4aproperty.com has grown so much as a website and a business, and the fantastic Look4AProperty | Money initiative will transform the industry as we know it,” Burchell said.

“Look4AProperty | Money is the most exciting initiative to hit the housing market for years,” added Sendall. “Estate agents, buyers and sellers will all benefit from the cash injection – and I was delighted to be asked to bring my experience in to the project.”

look4aproperty.com currently features UK sale and rental properties as well as overseas listings.
