Tue, 30 Sep 2025 | BUSINESS SALE
Cox & Group, a property and mortgage brokerage based in Edinburgh, has been acquired by Casa Group, a property group based in the north of England. Through the seven-figure acquisition, Casa Group expands its presence into Scotland for the first time.
County Durham-based Casa Group specialises in residential sales, lettings and property management. The group, which was previously known as Castledene Group before rebranding earlier this year, has 11 branches across the north of England.
Following the acquisition, Cox & Co Managing Director John Cox (pictured above, right, with Casa Group Commercial Director Matt Holbrook) takes on the role of Casa Group Scotland Managing Director and will spearhead the group’s growth strategy in Scotland. The Cox & Co name will remain unchanged, with operations continuing to be based at the company’s Castle Terrace headquarters.
There will be no job losses resulting from the acquisition and Casa Group Scotland will continue to serve clients across Edinburgh, Glasgow and Scotland’s Central Belt. The deal aims to ensure seamless service and delivery of the group’s expertise to a wider network.
John Cox said that joining Casa Group was “an exciting opportunity” for the company, adding: “We have built a strong reputation serving buyers, sellers, investors and renters of properties and with the backing and resources of Casa Group, we can build on our success and extend our services to benefit even more clients across Scotland.”
Cox stated that the deal would also enable the business ”to roll out our financial services proposition and property investment arm into England”.
Casa Group England Managing Director Adele Wright said: “This acquisition allows us to expand our services into Scotland while benefiting from the local knowledge and reputation that John Cox and his team have built over the years.”
“This marks an exciting new chapter for Casa Group, enabling the group to expand while making sure Cox & Co’s clients continue to receive the same trusted service they have relied on.”
