20 years ago this month, Stuart Mitchell set up his own Hampshire commercial property consultancy, Mitchell Jones. Five years later, in 1998 Mitchell Jones merged with Holloway Iliffe to form Holloway Iliffe & Mitchell. With a continued focus on Hampshire and the south coast markets, Stuart has seen many changes over the last two decades, not least four Prime Ministers lead our country into and out of two recessions which have affected the property market in many ways, particularly in the last five years.
Commenting on his 20 years in business, Stuart said:
“The last two decades have seen a phenomenal amount of change across the world. From desk top monolithic PCs to mobile working and micro technology, I’ve experienced it all and the pace only seems to increase. The property sector too has seen a huge step change in occupier attitudes, most particularly in the last five years and only now are things beginning to even out. I expect the next few years to see further changes in the sector both locally and nationally and look forward to being part of it.”
