Birmingham-based estate agency Partridge Homes is recording sustained dynamic growth in the regional rental market and is further expanding its staffing capacity. With the appointment of Katie Fisher as new property manager, the company is specifically strengthening its operational support in the lettings division.
For the agency's lettings division, this appointment marks the third new addition since May 2026. The company is thus responding directly to increased transaction volumes and the growing number of managed rental properties in the Greater Birmingham area.
Record month in the lettings business
The team expansion follows a period of exceptionally high business activity. In September 2026 alone, Partridge Homes agreed deals for almost 40 new tenancies. This result underlines the strong demand for housing in the region and consolidates the agency's market position.
The letting figures for the current period also reflect a long-term upward trend. According to the agency, this is the most successful financial year since 2007, bringing the lettings segment close to historic highs.
Focus on portfolio management and customer service
With the expanded staffing structure, Partridge Homes aims to maintain service quality for landlords and tenants at the customary level even during peak workloads. In light of the expanded portfolio, the management of tenancies requires reliable on-site operational management of properties.
