Spring Estate Agents are delighted to announce that we have joined The Bondholder scheme. The Bondholders scheme is fundamentally about bringing businesses together to raise Hull's profile, change its image and providing a positive context in which Hull's businesses can operate.
The scheme also unites businesses to harness this powerful network for the benefit of the city region.

Spring Estate Agents Managing Director Mr Govind Manocha said "We have been a member of this highly influential business group for a few months now and so far I have been very impressed. The meetings, guest speakers and the networking has all been first class. Also knowing that this group is attended by some of the best business minds in the city is also a great feeling and we are proud to be part off it".

Spring Estate Agents attends the Sailors' Families' Society Sportsman's Lunch.

On Friday the 16th of October Spring Estate Agents where invited by Williamsons Solicitors to attend the Sailors' Families' Society Sportsman's Lunch at the Ramada Jarvis Hotel in Willerby.
This annal event was generously sponsored by Williamsons Solicitors and the guest speaker, Mr Dennis Taylor snooker world champion, was sponsored by NatWest.

The Sailors Family Society’s purpose is to help Seafarers children who are in full-time education and the families are in severe financial difficulties. The majority of the families we support are single parent. However we do support two parent families where one of the parents is too ill or disabled to work and the other acts as the carer. The Society currently supports over 450 children whose families have served in the fishing fleets or the Royal or Merchant Navies.

The event was very well supported by over 300 local business people and they all enjoyed an excellent three course meal, which was followed by guest speaker, Mr Dennis Taylor and the hilarious charity auction & raffle. In total the event raised over £20,000 for the society and a fantastic afternoon was had by all.

Managing Director Govind Manocha said "I was fantastic to be invited to this even once again and help raise some funds for a very worthy charity. It also helps strengthen our links with Williamsons Solicitors with whom we are very proud to be associated with".

Hull City Centre Development Hailed By The Hull Civic Society.

A new hi-tech residential development has been hailed by the Hull Civic Society.
Ken Osborne and Julie Hare, developers behind the Sawmill Apartments, believe the city centre building represents the future of Hull. The Hull-born couple said they believe the city should be on a par with the likes of Leeds, Manchester and London.

Society president John Netherwood presented the couple with the prestigious Good Mark Award for the building, in Dock Street, city centre, which is the tallest timber-framed building in the north of England.

Ms Hare, who lives in Hessle, said after the award presentation: "We wanted to create a development in our own town that would help get rid of this unfair image of Hull as a second-rate city."

One of the most impressive features is the home automation system, which allows residents to text instructions to the computerised system so they can run a bath or switch the heating on before they even get home.

Ms Hare said: "We are also proud of the eco-friendly aspects. The apartments are well-insulated and energy-efficient."

Mr Osborne said he was delighted to receive the award for the 48-apartment building. He said: "We have lived and breathed this development and we are very proud of it.
"It means a lot to receive this recognition."

Mr Netherwood said such developments are important for the city.
He said: "With its quality materials, this has raised the bar in Hull and is an interesting addition to the streetscape. "We are also pleased the development has provided underground car parking."

The complex include one, two and three-bedroom apartments and prices range from £110,000 to £166,000. The couple are now creating three town houses and a restaurant on the George Street side in phase two of the development.

The Sawmill offers the very best in contemporary city living; beautifully appointed apartments and town houses, constructed to the highest standards, situated in the heart of Hull city centre. Built on the site of a former timber yard between Hull's Dock Street and George Street, The Sawmill comprises 48 luxury 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments and three, 3 bedroom, 3 storey townhouses. The 3 bedroom townhouses which border the north edge of the development offer a unique opportunity to create cutting edge contemporary interiors over three floors, in the original period buildings.

Internally and externally the superb specification and close attention to detail create a truly enviable lifestyle.
