The UK’s leading residential lettings specialist Belvoir Lettings is gearing up for a busy day ahead on 1 September 2010.

On that date Mike Betteridge of Belvoir Lettings on Poole Road, in Westbourne, Dorset will be amongst the 140 Belvoir offices spread throughout the UK to re-brand its famous ‘To Let’ boards with a unique, innovative and eye catching new design.

The new boards – over 3,500 in total – feature a ‘cut out’ exclamation mark within the
company’s logo, and they will be appearing all over the local area following the launch.
All houses, flats and apartments managed by Belvoir around the Poole & Bournemouth area will have the new distinctive design placed outside them. Mike of Belvoir Poole & Westbourne said: “I am very excited about the introduction of the new board. It’s bright, eye-catching and different! The cut-out feature is inspired – it certainly makes our signs stand out from the rest and we are sure it will get Belvoir properties noticed!” he added.

Dorian Gonsalves, Managing Director of Belvoir Lettings, said: “The design of our ‘To Let’ board has not changed since 2002, and whilst we believe brand consistency is key, we also want to show we are a modern and evolving company. This new design is different to those of any other agent and provides us with great ‘stand out’ appeal and local visibility.”

Belvoir is currently looking at a variety of environmentally responsible proposals for
recycling the existing boards – one possibility is that the plastic content will be recovered
and turned into plant pots and milk crates!

Belvoir’s growing network of offices stretches across the whole of the UK and looks after a property portfolio valued at more than £1 billion. Recently the company won Gold Award in the Best Lettings Agency Franchise category at the annual Lettings Agency of The Year Awards and is now hoping for success in another major lettings award in the prestigious awards scheme organised by the estate agency journal The Negotiator.

The franchise is a member of NALS (National Approved Lettings Scheme) and participates in the safe and secure custodial scheme with the Deposit Protection Scheme.
