When Carling Jones first established their estate agency and chartered surveyors practice in Skipton's Newmarket Street just over a year ago, they looked for a map of the town to show potential clients the location of the properties on their books. But the idea burgeoned and they ended up a large-scale wallpaper map, which now adorns the entrance wall. Emma Carling tells me: “We have had loads of positive remarks regarding the wall where each property can clearly be located identifying roads, gardens and adjacent properties. The new business is a great success and has really shaken up the property market in and around Skipton. We think this is largely down to our honest advice and realistic market appraisals and this street plan has certainly made our agency stand out."
