PEMBROKESHIRE estate agent FBM has been named the best agent in south Wales.

The company won the Relocation Agent Network’s (RAN) 2013 best agent south Wales regional award at the networks 20th annual conference in London.

Established in 1833, FBM was originally based in Tenby, but has expanded to include offices at Haverfordwest, Milford Haven, Narberth and Pembroke.

The award is based on a number of factors which measure the agent’s overall contribution to RAN, its ability to achieve customer satisfaction, market share and a proven record of helping relocating buyers.

The glittering black tie awards dinner was hosted by comedian and television presenter Dara O Briain, who presented FBM with their award.

FBM senior partner Dominic Subbiani said: “We are very proud to be named the region’s best RAN members.

“It recognises the hard work and combined effort of everyone at FBM over the last 12 months and clearly demonstrates to our buying and selling customers that we are one of Wales’ leading estate agents.”

RAN managing director Richard Tucker said: “FBM’s outstanding customer service, independent business initiatives, local market share and commitment to our network principles means that this award is thoroughly deserved. Congratulations to all the team.”
