Users of software Expert Agent are going to have their subscriptions hiked 10% on April 1.

Customers on an initial contract term will see their subscriptions increase once that period comes to an end.

Expert Agent was acquired by ZPG a year ago, although the purchase subsequently had to be cleared by the Competition and Markets Authority.

Its founder Mike Griffiths left the business last September.

A spokesperson for ZPG said of next month’s price rise: “Since we acquired Expert Agent last year we have been busy investing in the product and team.

“Over the coming months we will be integrating MoveIt and PropertyFile into Expert Agent unlocking huge revenue earnings potential and enabling customers to win more instructions and save on admin costs.

“There have been no price rises for Expert Agent over the last three years which is still one of the lowest cost solutions in the market and incredibly good value.”
