Barker Storey Matthews led the way at the inaugural East of England Radius Data Exchange Awards earlier this month.
The agency picked up three awards at the event, which was held at the Varsity Hotel in Cambridge.
Julian Welch, director, Barker Storey Matthews, said: “It’s great news for us as a firm.
“We’re very pleased to have picked up three awards. Not only the biggest dealmaker in the region but also more listings and, indeed, the dealmaker of the first half of the year.
“Estates Gazette is recognised as the leading data provider to the commercial real estate industry in the UK, and this sort of award means a lot to us but, equally, it’s recognised by our clients. It brands us as the market leader in our region.
“It’s very important to business going forward… [Radius Data Exchange] gives us access to data we wouldn’t necessarily have immediate access to as a firm.
“A lot of the London-based agents, the wider regional-based agents who are active in our area, we don’t necessarily know what they’re up to and it gives us access to that data.
“Because it’s easy access to information on a property-specific level across a range of disciplines, it gives us a focus from which we can gather data that we can then present to clients in a focused and transparent way.”
“Radius Data Exchange offers a complete, timely and reliable view of the UK real estate market and the data tells a very positive story for the East of England – the region is performing very well,” said Pete Kumposcht, managing director of EG.
“Many firms in the region are using the rich data that Radius Data Exchange offers and they are layering it onto their own expertise, in order to save time and offer better advice to their clients.”
