New property business
Michael Doran has just opened a brand new Property Team franchise on Main Street, and expects to be in a good position to develop the business as the current situation settles and business steadies.
"Things in the private house market may be a bit static at the moment, and I see people building extensions rather than moving, something I haven't seen much of in a decade. But it will come back, and in addition there's still a lot of growth left in Kilcullen."
Michael originally hails from Ballitore and previously worked with Murphy Auctioneers in Baltinglass, subsequently working with a Remax franchise in the Celbridge/Lucan area. A spell in Dunlavin worked in parallel with his studying for a degree in DIT, and with that under his belt he felt ready to go out on his own.
"With IAVI membership, I had the opportunity to get into the Property Team franchise, and I knew Kilcullen well so I decided to set up here."
Michael is planning an official launch event in the coming months, but in the meantime his office door is open for business.
