A York estate agency is the target of a takeover deal – and if it goes through, its MP chairman could net millions.

Hunters Property has revealed that The Property Franchise Group (TPFG) wants to buy it.

Hunters has issued a statement which said: “The approach is preliminary, and the terms remain subject to ongoing discussion and to due diligence by both Hunters and TPFG. 

“Accordingly, there can be no certainty that an offer will be made nor as to the terms of any offer, if made.

“A further announcement will be made when appropriate.”

One of Britain’s biggest

Hunters chairman and Conservative MP Kevin Hollinrake

The share price today (Monday) stood at 60p, valuing Hunters Property at £22.4 million.

The business was co-founded in 1992 by Kevin Hollinrake, the Conservative MP for Thirsk and Malton.

He owns 13.28% of the business, which would see him net £2m or more through a sale of the business.
