I started out as an enthusiastic sales negotiator working for The Prudential along the Askew Road and then for various agents in Chiswick and Hammersmith. This allowed me to see a gap in the market and the need for a good local Estate agency in Shepherd’s Bush, which I opened in 1993 at 75 Goldhawk Road. It was hard work as it was mid-way the property recession; however, by opening the business at this time, it gave me the incentive and resilience required for success. Over the coming years, the agency built a long-standing client base and a reputation as trustworthy and reliable, with knowledgeable, technically proficient and highly professional staff who, I am delighted to say, remain loyal to this day. The company expanded into the lettings market when my brother, Sean, joined to head up a busy Lettings Department followed with the equally able Audrey Sexton in 2010; Susanna Garcia-Diez joined to head up the property management department.
