The history of Leaders
Founded in 1983 by the late Neville Lee OBE, Leaders began as a single branch in Brighton. Since then, the company has become known for its first-class customer service and exceptional knowledge of the property market and local area.
Rapid expansion throughout the South of England meant Leaders quickly celebrated its 25th and 50th branch openings – and by acquiring reputable businesses up and down the country, the team at Leaders has now brought its expertise and customer service to new towns and cities across the UK.

One of the key areas that we are heavily invested in is sustainability and our impact on the environment. We're proud to say we have been carbon neutral since 2022, reaching our target 8 years early. To achieve this, we have made many changes across the business with more to come. You can find out more about our environmental work over in our Sustainability Hub.

Achievements and promotions are celebrated all year round, including our quarterly awards ceremonies.
Not only do we aim to help and support each other, but also the wider community. From 2022-2024, teams across the business fundraised in different ways with a total of £36,019.96 donated to MacMillan Cancer Support.
