The property world is in mourning as the sad passing of Sarah Edmundson was confirmed today (Wednesday 23rd October) after a lengthy battle with cancer.
Sarah had held a number roles across the property sector at Fine & Country, the Guild Of Property Professionals and was part of the team at Boomin aiming to disrupt the property listings dominance of Rightmove and Zoopla.
More recently she was hugely influential as CEO of estate agency charity Agents Together. Closer to home in Cumbria she was appointed as a Governor of the local hospital trust.
Sarah had battled cancer for several years and most recently appeared at The ESTAS Awards via video link on Friday 18th October, typical of Sarah to find a way despite the odds, to continue her fundraising and awareness efforts. The announcement today fittingly came from Agents Together who published the following message on social media.
