Senior Sales Negotiator
Time at John German? Been at John German since 2013.
Best part of your job? Giving the good news that someone offer has been accepted.
Top tip for buyer or seller? In real life, a property looks a lot different and you could be missing out on your dream home if you discount it from just seeing the pictures alone. Be opened minded, if it’s in your price range, in an area you want and has the space you need, book a viewing!
What would be your dream home? Somewhere on the coast with a sea view.
Senior Sales Negotiator
jeanette.newcombe@johngerman.co.uk
Time at John German? I’ve been at John German since 2005.
Best part of your job? Helping people move home and making sure it goes smoothly for them.
Top tip for buyer or seller? Always use a local estate agent, one that will have extensive knowledge of your area.
What would be your dream home? Where I live now, it has lots of memories.

Time at John German? I’ve recently started at John German however I have worked in estate agency for many years ever since I left college, having always had a passion for property.
Best part of your job? The best part of my job is meeting great people and ensuring we find them a property that they love! It’s very rewarding helping people buy and sell their homes.
Top tip for buyer or seller? Buyer – prepare yourself financially before viewing properties. When you do find the property you want, you’ll be in much better position to make an offer. Seller – talk through any concerns/worries you may have about selling and moving with your estate agent and they will be able to guide you through the process.
What would be your dream home? My dream home would be a beautiful house within a natural setting surrounded by lots of wonderful trees.
Lettings Director
Time at John German? Since 1995 but with 3 years off for good behaviour!
Favourite part of your job? Going out to meet landlords and gaining their confidence to instruct us…. And then finding them the perfect tenant!
Top tip for a landlord? Only buy a property to let in an area you would live!
What would be your dream home? A grand design home with full height windows overlooking countryside.
Property Manager
Time at John German? I joined John German at the beginning of 2019, having been working in property management since 2012.
Best part of your job? Resolving an issue for a tenant/landlord such as a repair.
Top tip for a landlord? Always have an inventory!
What would be your dream home? A Georgian villa with plenty of original features.
Accompanied Viewing Representative
What is your background? My career was within aero engineering, then whilst in retirement I was approached by John German for the role as Accompanied Viewing Representative. It is a role that I thought would last a few months but I’m still here over 12 years on! What I enjoy the most is meeting different people every day and being able to offer advice on the housing market.
Top tip for buyer or seller: For those selling, my advice would be to leave the viewings to the estate agent. Buyers tend to relax more with a third party and this helps prevent any awkwardness between yourself and the buyer. Plus a good agent will have the skills to point out all the plus points of your home and answer any difficult question asked.
What would be your dream home? A nice four bedroom detached house overlooking the Ocean on the Almafi Coast.
