After a milestone-filled 2024, Yopa is setting its sights on another year of exceptional growth in 2025, driven by the expansion of its self-employed Associates model.
Despite challenges in the property market due to higher mortgage rates, Yopa achieved record-breaking success last year, selling over 10,000 homes across the UK and delivering its strongest revenue performance to date.
The firm’s growing team of estate agents – now nearing 200 – played a pivotal role in this success, securing record earnings while helping sellers navigate an evolving market.
Looking ahead, Yopa expects its momentum to accelerate with the full-scale rollout of its Associate Model, which offers self-employed agents a new pathway to success.
BROKERAGE MODEL
Initially announced in October 2024, the innovative brokerage model allows experienced agents – or those considering self-employment – to partner with Yopa Franchise Owners, gaining mentorship and support as they build their businesses.
Yopa remains the only nationwide estate agency to provide agents with complete flexibility in choosing their career path, a strategy that aligns with the increasing popularity of the self-employed model.
POWER TO CHOOSE
Verona Frankish (main picture), Yopa’s Chief Executive, says: “Yopa has been at the forefront of estate agency evolution for nearly a decade, and we’re thrilled to see our first Associates stepping into this next phase in 2025.
“The rise of self-employment in the industry is undeniable, but we also recognize the value of traditional models. By giving agents the power to choose their path, we’re creating an environment where everyone can thrive.”
“2024 was a landmark year for us, but we’re not slowing down. Our focus is firmly on the future, and the Associate Model will play a key role in taking Yopa to new heights in 2025 and beyond.”
