A comment from Sir Charles Dunstone, Founder of Freston Ventures, on Strike's acquisition of Purplebricks' assets:
"This is a fantastic opportunity to bring together the two market leading brands, which between them are disrupting how homes are sold. We are excited to begin our journey together.
At Freston Ventures, we focus on building household brands that are trusted by consumers across the UK. With decades of experience in building and growing businesses such as Carphone Warehouse and TalkTalk, we know what it takes to build propositions that consumers love and believe there is a better way to sell a house that offers customers great value, as well as empowerment over the process.
For too long, traditional agents have charged too much for doing too little. Through bringing together Strike and Purplebricks, we will democratise house selling and create a new force in UK estate agency."
