Yorkshire’s most connected agent: How Linley & Simpson’s partnership with KFH benefits you

16th Jun 2025

We’re excited to announce a major milestone, Linley & Simpson is now a sister company to Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward (KFH), one of London’s most trusted and established estate agencies. This partnership opens up a powerful new channel for our clients: direct access to thousands of motivated London buyers.

Why does this matter?

If you’re selling in Yorkshire, there’s one buyer pool you can’t afford to ignore: Londoners.

The migration from the capital to ‘God’s Own Country’ has grown steadily over the last decade and now it’s booming. According to the ONS, during 2023 around 860,000 people left London to live somewhere else in the UK, and rural areas such as Yorkshire saw the biggest increase in residents.  

Did you know?

  • The number of buyers leaving London to live in places such as Yorkshire is on the rise.
  • Buyer budgets from London are often higher, meaning better sales outcomes for vendors.
  • The trend is only accelerating as hybrid working makes location more flexible than ever.

What our partnership with KFH means for you

KFH operates over 60 offices across London, serving thousands of active buyers every year. Through our new relationship, Linley & Simpson can now directly market Yorkshire properties like yours to London buyers.  

This connection:

  • Amplifies your listing’s reach by placing it directly in front of high-intent buyers in the capital.
  • Shortens time on the market with a more efficient buyer-vendor match.
  • Potentially increases sale prices, with London demand often pushing up offers.
  • Helps you benefit from a joined-up selling strategy, with teams in both cities working together seamlessly.

With KFH now in our corner, Linley & Simpson is your route in to this expanding buyer base. We understand the lifestyle, the motivations, and the market, and we’re uniquely positioned to turn that into results for you.
