DMA Estate Agents

David Mansfield Atton, whose initials inspired the business name, has been in the estate agency business for three decades. He has been a fellow of the National Association of Estate Agents for over twenty years.

David was originally on the managerial staff of a successful local chain of independent estate agents. This chain was subsequently taken over by a leading building society in the late 1980s, following in the footsteps of many such institutions in order to maintain a share of the lucrative financial services market at the time. Within this new organisation David became a District Director, covering five regional offices, and later on had responsibility for Commercial sales in the whole of the North Yorkshire area.

In August 1992 David decided to return to independent status and, along with his wife Elaine, set up DMA Estate Agents in Filey.
