Time at John German? I joined in 2018 and enjoy working with a great team who are held in such high regard as one of the leading estate agents in Burton.
The best part of your job? After 40 years as an Estate Agent I enjoy passing on my experience to sellers and buyers, along with working with highly trained and efficient colleagues.
Top tip for buyer or seller? For those selling a property, put your trust in an established local estate agent with a successful track record, one who will guide you professionally through the whole process from the initial valuation to a successful completion. If you are looking for a new home or investment property, establish a rapport with your local estate agents. The more they know about you and your search the higher chance you will have finding your perfect home or investment. Also take financial advice early on to help with your purchase.

What is your experience? I have worked in education for 30+ years and after a career break I decided on a change. I am loving the opportunity to work for John German.
The best part of your job? I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life and helping them look for their next home.
Top tip for buyer or seller? For buyers – ensure your house is clean and clutter free so prospective purchasers can imagine living there.
Dream Home: A period property with up to date fixtures and fittings.
Accompanied Viewing Representative
What is your experience? As a retired police officer, I have had over 30 years experience of dealing with a wide variety of people, dealing with their individual needs and requirements. Having recently joined the John German Team I intend to carry on with these values, by helping and advising our customers, making their overall experience of the house move process as enjoyable and stress free as possible.
The best part of your job? Meeting new people and visiting all the different types of houses for sale. I enjoy finding out the stories of our customers and their hopes for the future in potentially their new home.
Top tip for buyer or seller? When selling, declutter as much as possible to enable potential buyer to visualise themselves living there. When buying, you will know when you find the right house. Your new house won’t be perfect for you in the beginning and there might be some compromises. Choose the house with the least compromises for you.
What would be your dream home? A log home in a forest in the countryside so I could enjoy walks with my family and dog.
Independent Mortgage Advisor
What is your experience?
I started my working life as an Underwriter for Abbey National before becoming a Mortgage Advisor in Birmingham. I then became a Area Mortgage Manager in retail banking. I have been working with APR for 18 months.
The best part of your job?
Diversity; Every client is so different, each recommendation and needs are bespoke. Love being independent, for Mortgages and Protection – the client gets the best of both worlds.
Top tip for a buyer or seller?
Follow your head and not your heart!
What would be your dream home?
A three story town house in Notting Hill with a high walled garden
