London: An Indian-origin teenager has become one of Britain’s youngest millionaires after his online estate agency business got valued at £12 million in just over a year. This week “doorsteps.co.uk” became the 18th biggest estate agency in the UK—just 16 months after the website went live. Ruparelia claims to have already sold £100 million worth of properties since he set up his business. The north London-based schoolboy was able to sell the property and land within three weeks, which set the ball rolling. The teenage tycoon believes his model is set to turn the property selling market away from agents in flashy suits.
