Brian Smith

Sales Manager

Yopa Blackpool

Brian Smith is an estate agent who knows property inside out—and people even better. With over 20 years in the industry, he’s worked across both traditional high-street agencies and modern online models, giving him a rare, well-rounded perspective on what really works for buyers and sellers alike. Professional, knowledgeable, and refreshingly down-to-earth, Brian prides himself on clear advice, great communication, and customer service that actually feels personal. When he’s not helping clients move on to their next chapter, Brian is a proud dad and the enthusiastic coach of a local Under-7s football team—where patience, teamwork, and encouragement are just as important as they are in property. Whether he’s negotiating a sale or cheering from the sidelines, Brian brings experience, integrity, and a genuine love of helping people succeed.
