FirstPort has bought Pentland Estate Management, the property management arm of Linden Homes, the housebuilder owned by Galliford Try.
FirstPort was launched in 2015 and is the largest residential property services manager in the UK. Pentland has around 12,000 customers.
FirstPort chief executive Nigel Howell said: “As our service and reputation improves, our retention rate strengthens and is standing at 97% and despite a stagnant housing market and uncertain economic and political environment, we are seeing record growth as more clients appoint us.
The companies will now work towards a transition plan for staff, clients and customers.
