Purplebricks shareholders overwhelmingly back £1 takeover by Strike

Purplebricks shareholders have voted in favour of a £1 takeover by rival strike.

At a meeting earlier on Friday, 91.1% of votes were cast in favour of the deal, which was announced last month.

Purplebricks said at the time that after the sale, it expected to be left with around £2m, which would be returned to shareholders in a members’ voluntary liquidation dependent on a number of factors.
