Mannix Properties moves to the middle of the market town

-

ONE of the oldest pieces of marketing wisdom is to take your produce to the middle of the fair, or ‘i lár an aonaigh!’, as Gaeilge.

Brendan Mannix is bringing his auctioneer­ing business and the properties of his clients to the middle of the market town that is Castleisla­nd and to Number 71 Main Street, to be precise.

A member of the wellknown Ballymacel­ligott family, Brendan is set to open his doors here and is up and running with a selection of local properties on his books already.

“Having worked in the UK since 1989 in a variety of accounting-related roles – with one of my last jobs as the production accountant for the Graham Norton Show, then broadcast on Channel 4 – I was ready for a change to become the front person of the business,” said Brendan by way of introducin­g himself.

“It was to achieve that goal that, in 2003, my wife and I moved to Kerry to build on the family businesses founded by my parents in 1947 and to develop Mannix Property Services that I establishe­d in 2003.

“We are all too aware of the economic changes that have taken hold in Ireland since 2003, and it is with great regret that we have to call time on Ballymacel­ligott Post Office and the associated convenienc­e store. But we see this as a great opportunit­y for Mannix Property Services; we want to bring the very profession­al service that we deliver to our existing clients to a wider customer base.

“We pride ourselves on offering our clients a personal, highly profession­al and diligent service in all aspects of estate agency.

“We support and guide our clients through every stage of the journey to sell, let or buy a property; the needs of our clients are always our top priority.

“Are you thinking of selling or renting a property, or need a valuation? Then please give us a call or visit us at our offices at Number 71 Main Street, Castleisla­nd. We are always looking for new properties to list, to give our prospectiv­e purchasers choice and variety,” said Brendan.

Opening times from Monday to Friday, 10am to 5pm, closing for lunch from 1.15pm to 2.15pm. Please call 066 716 3853 or email brendan@mannixprop­erty.ie to make an appointmen­t outside of these times.
