The first avo iad *Mentoring for Financial Freedom* session is officially underway 🚀

Led by Head of Training Barry Lee, the session brought together 4 key avo agents alongside Head of Constellation Mike Robson and the wider iad HQ team, all with one shared focus — building a stronger culture of mentoring, leadership, and shared success across the business.

The session marks the first step in creating a solid network of mentors who are committed to helping others grow by sharing real experience, proven strategies, and best practice from within the industry.

One of the biggest strengths of avo iad is the willingness of agents to support one another. When people openly share knowledge, collaborate, and help others avoid mistakes and grow faster, everybody benefits.

This is about more than just business growth — it’s about creating long-term opportunities, stronger leadership, and helping more people move towards genuine financial freedom together.

Excited to see where this journey leads 🚀

A few weeks ago, our team travelled to Marrakech for the iad Sponsorship Challenge 🇲🇦✨

An unforgettable few days spent alongside some of Europe’s top team builders, sharing experiences, ideas and learning from one another in the heart of an incredible city.

From the riads to the medina, from the desert to late-night conversations over mint tea, every moment reflected what makes iad so unique: people helping people grow.

This trip was about much more than business.
It was about connection, leadership, collaboration and the power of surrounding yourself with the right network.

Experiences like this are a reminder that at iad, we grow together, support each other and celebrate each other’s success.

A huge thank you to everyone who made this experience so special. The energy, ambition and openness shared throughout the trip made it truly inspiring.

Because the greatest successes are the ones we pass on ✨

The traditional estate agency career path is changing.

For years, progression meant climbing the ladder — from negotiator to branch manager and beyond.

Today, more and more professionals are choosing a different route:
building their own business.

This article explores the shift toward the self-employed model in the UK,
where agents combine independence with the support of a structured platform.

It highlights the key differences with traditional high-street models,
and why ownership, flexibility, and performance-driven growth are becoming the new standard.

For experienced agents and career changers alike,
this model offers a clear opportunity to take control of their trajectory
while benefiting from training, tools, and a strong network.

If you are exploring what the future of estate agency looks like,
this is worth your time.

avocado iad Group Meet 🇬🇧

For years, avocado property has brought its network together every two months, creating a space to train, learn, connect and grow together.

In self-employed estate agency, it can sometimes feel lonely without the right network behind you. That’s why these moments matter so much: sharing experiences, supporting one another and building success together.

Thank you to everyone who attended the day including group President Clemént Delpirou. The contributions (as always) made for an inspiring and energetic event. The collaboration and ambition in the room truly reflected the strength of the iad community. 🚀

Until next time!

You prospect. You negotiate. You hold the deal together when it matters most.

That’s the part of the job that creates the value — yet most agents still walk away with only a fraction of it.

The industry is changing.
More agents are stepping into a model where they keep the majority of the fee they generate, while still benefiting from structure, support and a powerful network behind them.

At iad UK, self-employed doesn’t mean starting from scratch. It means building something of your own — with the backing of one of Europe’s largest estate agency networks.

Maybe the question is no longer “Could I do it?”

But whether your current split still makes sense.

There’s a different kind of energy when you get the right people in the room.

On Thursday 7th May, the avocado property team came together with iad UK at the Bracknell HQ for a session focused on one thing:

Mentoring for financial freedom.

Not theory.
Not hype.
Real conversations about what it actually takes to build something of your own in this industry.

What stood out wasn’t just the content - it was the network in the room.

Because when you bring together agents who:
– share knowledge openly
– challenge each other’s thinking
– and genuinely want to see others win

…you create momentum that’s very hard to replicate on your own.

And that’s the shift that’s happening.

Self-employed estate agency is no longer a side conversation - it’s moving to the front of the UK property market.

Not because it’s easy.
But because it gives agents:
– more control
– more upside
– and a clearer path to long-term financial freedom

Sessions like this aren’t just about learning.

They’re about expanding what people believe is possible and showing that with the right model, support, and network, you don’t have to build it alone.

Great to be in Manchester with the iad UK team for our latest business opportunity presentation.

A number of our team travelled up to meet with prospective agents, talk through the iad model, and explore the opportunity this incredible city – and the surrounding areas – can offer.

A big thank you to Tom Gilbert from the Avocado Property team, part of iad UK, for joining us as guest speaker and sharing his perspective on building a successful business within the network.

These sessions are always a strong reminder of why we do what we do.

They give agents the chance to step away from the day-to-day noise, ask honest questions, and properly understand what a different way of working can look like – with the right infrastructure, support, and network behind them.

Manchester has huge potential, but this is just one part of the wider conversation.

We have a number of further business opportunity events coming up across the UK:

📍 London – Monday 8th June
📍 Birmingham – Tuesday 16th June
📍 Nottingham – Wednesday 17th June
📍 Cardiff – Tuesday 7th July
📍 Bristol – Wednesday 8th July

If you’re an estate agent, or someone with property industry experience, and you’re curious about building something with more flexibility, more support, and more long-term potential, we’d love to connect.

The industry is changing. For the right people, that creates real opportunity.

If you’d like to find out more, drop us a message and we’ll be happy to talk you through what’s coming up. Or book your place via Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/cc/upcoming-bops-3122009?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=creatorshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=odclsxcollection&utm-source=cp&aff=escb

At iad, we’ve always believed that growth comes from people, not just structure.

That’s exactly why bringing avocado property into our UK model matters.

Not as a headline.
But as a working partnership built over time.

Over the past weeks, we’ve been sitting down together, sharing openly what each side does well, where we see opportunities, and how we raise standards collectively.

Because integration isn’t about fitting one model into another.
It’s about building something stronger than either could achieve alone.

Avocado has developed a powerful approach around personal brand, local market expertise, and a strong client-first mindset.

At iad, we bring a platform designed to support entrepreneurs with the structure, tools, and network to scale sustainably.

Together, this creates a model where self-employed agents can:
• Grow their own business with real support behind them
• Build a personal brand within a structured environment
• Access opportunities that go beyond traditional models

This is how we see the future of estate agency in the UK :
- independent, but not isolated
- ambitious, but supported
- local, but connected

And this is just the beginning.

If you’re an agent, entrepreneur, or industry leader who sees the market evolving in the same direction, now is the time to be part of the conversation.
