Platinum Property Partners, which launched in 2007 by Steve Bolton, was the world’s first property investment franchise with the main aim of helping people gain financial security by owning their own property portfolios. Since then it has gone from strength to strength and is regarded as one of the fastest growing premium franchise in UK history.

Bolton commented: “Our network of partners is our most valuable asset and it is a huge achievement for us to continue to grow each year and enable more people to leave financial legacies for their loved ones. To date out franchise partners have purchased over £70 million of property in 85 towns and cities across the UK.”

Franchise Partners Nicky and Paul Ruggier joined Platinum Property Partners in 2010 and now own four properties offering premium shared living for tenants in Dorset. Nicky Ruggier said: “We really enjoy running our own business and it has made our lives easier by giving us a stable income. We get satisfaction from knowing our tenants are impressed by our properties and we are now looking forward to a time when we can both spend even more time at home with our family. Ruggier added: “Steve (Bolton) has established an ethical franchise, which was a major factor for us when we joined, and we have also made lasting friendships with other Franchise Partners.”
