With over 45 years of estate agency experience between both London and here in Northumberland, Laura and I have worked in a competitive environment during the highs and lows of the housing market since the late 90s.
I started my career in London, swiftly progressing to senior management level at both regional and national level. I’ve been incredibly fortunate to have worked with & developed some award-winning agents over the years, most recently in my last employed post, playing a key role in the mentoring, coaching and training of like-minded business owners across the country, who have gone on to build successful relationship focussed businesses for themselves.
Laura started her career here in 1999, managing and valuing within a number of the local estate agency firms before taking a sabbatical. That year out turned into ten and after a spell in the Caribbean, she moved to London in 2013 where we first met. There, she worked for one of the largest independent agents in the capital where she swiftly become recognized both as the top negotiator and valuer across this business during her 4 years there. Laura then carved out a successful stint as a self-employed property consultant in partnership, with what was at the time, the most dominant name in the UK property industry. There, she had managing oversight of one of South London’s largest territories, successfully building a referral & recommendation-based business.
Why Bedlington and surrounding areas?
We moved back to Bedlington in search of a safer, more suitable environment to raise our daughter Ava and we felt Bedlington also offered an exciting opportunity for us to follow our dreams and apply our passion for helping people with their property needs, by running our own relationship focussed business.
Laura went to school here, our daughter now goes to school here, we socialise regularly within the local restaurants & pubs, whilst making full use of the public parks and woodland walks that we are incredibly fortunate to have on our doorstep. The beach also being a 10-minute drive away doesn’t hurt either. We even got engaged in the Lairds House Hotel on Bedlington Front Street!
We know and love the area (that’s why we have moved back). We genuinely wanted to become key members of this tight knit community and continue to do everything we can to help it thrive.
What makes us different.
We take the stress out of moving by offering a personal service that focusses on the needs & wants of our clients. We believe that selling your home should be an enjoyable experience. Whether we’re offering move advice or just having a friendly chat, we want to be there for you round the clock. Our proactive approach is proven to get results, as we swiftly built our reputation and following to become the most successful selling agent within 18 months of our launch as well as comfortably establishing ourselves as the most recommended property couple in the area. Both titles that we’ll will work tirelessly to protect.
Running our own business puts us in a position to take full responsibility for every decision made, thus enabling us to deliver a truly bespoke service.
Our vendors benefit from our experience and skill when pricing their home. We work together with them on a tailored marketing strategy to suit each individual homeowner and their property.
Start to finish, we take full responsibility, meaning from the moment you appoint us, every detail is carefully handled. From showcasing & exposing your home to the largest audiences, to negotiating the best sales price, we manage the entire legal process, through to the point where we hand the keys to the excited new owners – all supported exclusively by Laura and myself. An experience you just won’t find anywhere else.
What’s the motivation?
We are obsessed about property! We believe in a better, more relationship focussed style of estate agency. It’s been in our blood for the majority of our working lives and the fact we get to help people with such an important event in their lives while doing something we love fuels our drive and determination on a daily basis. Putting a smile on the face of our home movers means the world to us!
Our Goal.
To become the most recommended property advisors in Northumberland.
