Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council procured estate agency services to dispose of three council assets: Queensmead Former Care Home in Christchurch (BH23 2NP), 12–14 Commercial Road in Poole (BH14 0JW), and Penn Hill Car Park in Poole (BH14 9LZ). The requirement covers real estate agency services provided on a fee or contract basis, including marketing and facilitating disposal of the properties. The procurement is classified under CPV 70300000. The work concerns council property in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area, with the council acting as the buying organisation. It was divided into three lots: Queensmead Former Care Home, 12–14 Commercial Road, and Penn Hill Car Park. The contracts are for professional property disposal and agency activity rather than construction or property management.

This below-threshold procurement used a limited competition and is complete. Awards were made to Vail Williams LLP and Goadsby & Harding (Residential) Limited, both SMEs. The published award records associate both awards with Lot 1; the signed contract titles identify one contract as covering Lots 1 and 2 and the other as covering Lot 3. The contracts were signed on 11 August 2026 and run from 17 August 2026 to 16 August 2027, with one discretionary extension available to 16 August 2028. The Lot 1 and Lot 2 contract is valued at £66,802.97 excluding VAT (£80,163.57 including VAT). The Lot 3 contract is valued at £13,197.03 excluding VAT (£15,836.43 including VAT).

This award indicates demand from Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council for specialist estate agency support in disposing of public-sector land and buildings, including a former care home, a commercial property and a car park. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would be property agents with demonstrable experience of selling or otherwise disposing of varied council or institutional assets, preparing appropriate marketing strategies, managing purchaser interest and progressing transactions to completion. Relevant capability includes local market knowledge across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, access to commercial and residential buyer networks, valuation and agency expertise, and the capacity to handle several assets or lots concurrently. As the selected suppliers are SMEs, a focused independent property practice may be credible for this type of council instruction.
