Countrywide plc is a financial services and property services group with an extensive distribution of over 800 estate agency offices.
There are five main divisions: Financial Services and Mortgage Services, Life Assurance, Estate Agency, Commercial & Professional - Surveyors and Conveyancing.





The Countrywide plc makes profit from estate agency activity and from distribution through estate agency outlets of mortgages and financial products. Countrywide is ambitious and is looking to achieve rapid growth in its share of the estate agency market and financial services and other services distribution. It has adopted franchising as one of its main growth vehicles in estate agency. Acquisitions will however still be considered as opportunities arise.
Countrywide owns 22 of the biggest and best known brands in the UK - and franchising offers ideal opportunities for the growth of selected brands
Bairstow Eves is the Group's biggest brand, with over 220 outlets spread across the country as a whole.
Bairstow Eves have been adopted as the core brand for franchising development across the country – other brands may follow
The intention is to continue to build Bairstow Eves as a national brand with the fullest possible representation across the country
Most other Countrywide brands are strong regionally, and are therefore being considered for franchising on a regional basis - in due course.
