After starting out in retail management, I stepped into the estate agency world 18 years ago and have never looked back. I am very lucky to be able to say that I love my job. Valuing houses is not just about putting a value to a home but it’s the people behind the front door, their lives and their stories and its these people I meet that I would of otherwise not known. Moving home, whether it’s just buying, just selling or doing both simultaneously, is stressful, there is no point sugar coating it, but when I am able to ease that stress and burden for the home owners that I meet and help them get to where they want to go and begin that new chapter in their lives, it feels great and makes me come back to work day after day. With two young children, a dog and a husband, with a bunch of weekly activities thrown in the mix, we all know how busy life can be. However, balance, understanding and communication is key and I am proud to offer that to each and every one of our customers.
