Emoov at One Year: A Family Company, A National Presence

Emoov at One Year: A Family Company, A National Presence

In August 2024, Griffin Property Co took a bold step forward: we rebranded as Emoov. A year later, we’re proud to reflect on what has been an incredible 12 months of growth, change, and above all, a renewed commitment to the people we serve.

This isn’t just the story of a rebrand. It’s the story of how a family-run company has expanded across the UK, reached more customers than ever before, and proven that you don’t need external funding or corporate structures to succeed—you just need focus, care, and the right values.

The Griffin Legacy: A True Family Business

Our story begins with Nick Neale, the father and founder of Griffin. With 25 years of experience in the estate agency market, Nick laid the foundations of a company built on trust, transparency, and service.

Over the years, the business has grown—but always stayed true to its family roots. Today, Nick is joined by his children, making Emoov a genuine family affair:

  • Jacob – part of the onboarding and marketing team, ensuring every client starts their journey with confidence.
  • Jessica – leading the customer service team, she also manages buyer verification and issues memorandums of sale, keeping transactions seamless.
  • Sophie – overseeing property management administration and sales progression, she ensures landlords, tenants, and buyers are supported at every stage.

With Nick’s experience guiding the vision and his children driving the day-to-day operations, Emoov is more than just a business. It’s a family working together for families across the UK.

Growing Without Outside Funding

Over the past year, we’ve proven that it’s possible to expand nationally without external funding. By staying independent, we keep full control over how we run Emoov, and that means one thing: every decision we make is in the best interests of our customers.

Affordable, Transparent Pricing

One of the things we’re most proud of this year is how we’ve been able to keep our services affordable and transparent.

  • Sales: Property listings from just £395 upfront
  • Lettings: Listings starting at only £59.50 upfront

From Local Roots to National Reach

In just twelve months, we’ve extended Emoov’s presence across the UK. Today, our services are trusted in major cities such as London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Liverpool, and Glasgow, and in countless communities in between.

Our platform makes national coverage possible, but our local, personal approach ensures that no matter where you are in the UK, you’ll always feel looked after.

Our Customers Say It Best

  • “Emoov were fantastic from start to finish. The whole process was seamless.”
  • "They were always available to answer my questions and provide guidance.”

For us, this feedback is more than a pat on the back. It’s proof that keeping service personal, accessible, and family-driven works.

Looking Ahead

The past year has been one of progress, learning, and expansion. But this is just the beginning.

As we look ahead, we remain guided by the same principles that got us here: family values, customer-first service, independence, and sustainable growth.

Here’s to the next chapter of Emoov.
