Brand welcomes its first-ever Scottish franchisee alongside new recruitment on the South Coast

  • Paul Melrose becomes MPP's first Scottish franchisee.
  • Stuart Smart embarks on a new career in Bournemouth.
  • MPP continues to gain traction across the UK.

My Property Pros has taken a significant leap by welcoming two new franchisees in geographically distinct parts of the UK. Paul Melrose has launched the company’s first franchise in East & Midlothian, signaling the brand’s entry into Scotland. Driven by a desire for work-life balance and entrepreneurial satisfaction after eight years in finance, Paul embraced the opportunity to become his own boss using a proven franchise model.

On England’s South Coast, Stuart Smart has embarked on his own journey with MPP, transitioning from nearly two and a half decades as an electrician in the luxury yacht industry to creating a business he can shape around his young family. Inspired by the prospect of crafting something meaningful, he seized the chance to apply the MPP model in his community.

Karen Prewer, CEO of MPP, expressed her enthusiasm for both openings, stating that these new locations demonstrate the far-reaching appeal of the franchise’s scalable and supportive structure. She emphasized that expansion into Scotland represents not just a new regional milestone, but also the potential for further network growth across the country.

With a decades-long track record, MPP offers franchisees a well-established platform that includes comprehensive training, technological tools, and a strong support network. These new additions to the MPP family reflect the versatility of the model and its relevance for professionals seeking ownership within a reputable, scalable system.

As Paul and Stuart settle into their territories, their launches illustrate how diverse backgrounds—from finance to marine electrical work—are finding common ground in the franchise’s value proposition: meaningful, supported, independent business ownership.
