Coventry-based LJB Estates Property Management Service Ltd has partnered with Alto to streamline its operations, automate admin and support ambitious growth plans across the Midlands.
Founded three years ago by Company Director Leon Binns (main picture), LJB Estates has rapidly evolved from a small property-management business into a full-service agency.
It now offers lettings, sales, finance, maintenance and development – aiming to become Coventry’s one-stop property shop.
Binns says: “From the start, we wanted to offer clients everything under one roof – from lettings and management to maintenance, mortgages, and sales.”
JUGGLING PLATFORMS
But he adds: “As the business grew, we were juggling multiple platforms: spreadsheets, Word docs, credit-check tools, e-signing software, and it slowed us down.
“With Alto’s all-in-one CRM, we can finally bring everything together in one simple, cloud-based system. It’s faster, more organised, and gives us time back to focus on clients.”
Binns says Alto stood out for its simplicity, robustness, and breadth of functionality – particularly its prospecting tool, legal-documentation automation, and integrated financial-reporting features – which together will streamline day-to-day operations and support LJB Estates’ goal of expanding while building a more prominent local brand.
GAME-CHANGER
He says: “Alto has already been a real game-changer for us. We’re constantly asked to carry out valuations, and Alto lets us generate professional packs instantly. It helps us look more polished and is saving hours every week.
“Our goal is to become a household name in Coventry. Having everything under one system means we can scale efficiently without losing quality, whether we are in the office, or on the move. For any growing agency, a modern, cloud-based CRM like Alto isn’t a luxury, it’s essential.”
ONE-STOP EXPERIENCE
Nick Shaw, Chief Revenue Officer at Alto, adds: “LJB Estates represents the new generation of ambitious, full-service agencies that see technology as the foundation for growth.
“Leon’s vision to bring a one-stop property experience to Coventry aligns perfectly with Alto’s mission to simplify, automate, and scale the way agents work.
“We’re proud to support LJB Estates Property Management Service Ltd as they continue their exciting journey.”
