History

movewithus was formed in 1997 by four estate agents operating in and around the Cambridgeshire region. Originally called Partners in Property, the company sought to provide revenue-generating services for independent estate agents to enable them to compete with larger corporate agencies. In 2000, the group expanded and began providing managed part-exchange services for UK home builders, using the agents in their network to value and sell the properties on the home builder's behalf. In 2001 they expanded further, incorporating the valuation and sale of properties acquired by building societies, mortgage lenders and other financial institutions in repossession and probate transactions.

In summer 2008, movewithus launched their brand, 'white hot property'. The brand was designed to differentiate properties on the market which come from corporate sellers, as opposed to private sellers. Only properties that have been through a controlled, independent valuation process and have no 'sales chains' are branded as 'white hot properties'.
