About us

Built by agency owners,
for agency owners.

Inspiring Ventures was founded by Neil Briggs and Bhavin Thakrar after years of building, operating and growing businesses across estate agency, lettings, property finance and compliance.

The business was created from practical experience rather than theory. Its products are designed around the real pressures agency owners face: maintaining compliance, training staff, improving systems, recruiting the right people and growing profitably.

Two careers spent inside the industry.

A more practical alternative.

Agency owners are expected to manage growing regulatory obligations while also recruiting staff, winning instructions, serving landlords and vendors, and maintaining profitable branches.

Our training, documentation and software tools are designed specifically for UK estate agents, letting agents and property professionals. They are built to be clear, usable and commercially realistic, helping businesses strengthen compliance without adding unnecessary complexity.
