The company has identified target territories across the country including: London and the South East, the South West, Birmingham and the North West where it hopes to open new offices.

Martin & Co currently has more than 120 offices nationwide and Managing Director Ian Wilson is aiming for 200 by the end of the decade.

He is heading up the road shows, which take place in London (September 24, Ramada Hotel, Ealing), Bristol (October 1, Gables Hotel, Falfield), Birmingham (October 2, Thistle Hotel, Birmingham City) and Manchester (October 9, Daresbury Park Hotel).

Ian said: "These target areas are hugely important in terms of Martin & Co's growth and the continuing volatility in the money markets has underlined why the property sector remains an excellent long term investment."

"Increasingly people are looking to property to secure their financial future and buy to let remains the king of investments."

He said demand for rental property is at its highest for over four years and rents at their highest for six years.

Attendees at the road shows will benefit from meeting with a number of head office support staff in addition to hearing from Martin & Co franchisees already trading in the area.

Ian added: "We have a number of offices in each of our target regions but there is scope to add a lot more."
