Chartered Surveyor
Time at John German? I first joined John German Estate Agents in the Ashby office as a Trainee Land Agent in 1981. I qualified as a Chartered Surveyor a year later. After ten years in various parts of the country, I moved to the John German Stafford office. I was the head of the Residential Estate Agency and Valuation department. I stayed until we opened in Uttoxeter in 2004. I now work from Ashbourne and Uttoxeter, combining them with my role as Managing Director.
The best part of your job? Despite how long I have been doing it, I get immense satisfaction from doing a deal and achieving an excellent result for a client. It is great when clients follow your advice, especially when the results match or exceed everyone’s expectations.
Top tip for anyone selling a property? It is vital to prepare well to avoid unnecessary delays and avoidable issues spoiling the sale in the final stages of the deal. It is worth reviewing the house’s condition and sorting out teething problems that could deter buyers and create many damning words from surveyors. Also, ensure all the appropriate certificates and paperwork is readily available for your solicitor.
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.
Sales Director & Property Valuer
Time at John German? I’ve worked in the Estate Agency industry for 30 years and have been with John German since 2002 working within the areas surrounding Burton upon Trent, Stafford, Uttoxeter and Ashby de la Zouch.
Best part of your job? I’m extremely focused on providing a high standard of customer service while achieving the best possible price for my clients. I thoroughly enjoy seeing the diverse range of properties we sell in Uttoxeter and helping people through the selling/buying process where every sale is slightly different.
What are your favourite hobbies? Outside of work I love spending time with my wife and little girl. When time allows, I enjoy watching all kinds of sports having ‘retired’ from playing, though I do have the odd round of golf.

Time at John German? My passion for selling properties and land began when I was on work experience at the age of 15, I knew back then that I wanted to be an estate agent; and here I am, many years later still fulfilling my dream with John German in Uttoxeter.
Best part of your job? Agreeing a sale, seeing both the seller and the buyer happy is our ultimate goal. I enjoy overcoming hurdles that sometimes appear in the process, along with meeting new people and making friends along the way.
Top tip for buyer or seller? Buyers – ensure your finances are in place before you begin to look for properties, and have chosen a conveyancer (solicitor) in readiness to avoid any unnecessary delays with your purchase. Sellers – present your property and make it stand out from the rest, declutter and ensure it is clean and tidy. I am a great believer in kerb appeal, most prospective purchasers will drive past your property before even making a decision to view.

Best part of your job? My favourite part of the job is when we have a new house for sale and immediately know of a waiting buyer who will snap it up.
Top tip for buyer or seller? My advice to anyone selling a property would be to present it at its very best. Pack away any of those items that you can live without for a few months and take pets out of the house during viewings.

Lettings Accounts Assistant
Time at John German

Lettings is new to me so I’m finding learning about Lettings and Lettings Accounts very interesting. It’s been great working with a fantastic team.
Top Tip for Buyer or seller?
Always listen to the advice your Estate Agent offers you and ask plenty of questions.
What would be your dream home?
I would love to live in a big Georgian house with high ceilings, an Aga and a wine cellar.
Accompanied Viewing Representative
Time at John German? I joined the team here at Uttoxeter in February 2017 having previously worked for another agency.
Favourite part of your job? Conducting the viewings at the wide variety of properties, big and small, town and country. Also meeting people with different requirement, from people looking for their first home to ‘seasoned’ home movers.
Top tip for buyer or seller ? When selling a property think about the ‘kerb appeal’ because you can only make a first impression once, and then de-clutter the property so it presents as best it can, while at the same time feeling homely.
What would be your dream home? If in the UK, a nice home in a village within walking distance to a nice country pub. Outside the UK, a villa in Cyprus.
Accompanied Viewing Representative
My experience at John German: I enjoyed stepping in for family and friends who were not keen on showing people around their property a year or so ago, but I have only recently taken on this role, after a number of years in the Insurance industry.
My favourite part of the job: I really enjoy meeting new people and helping them feel at ease when buying or selling a home, which can be stressful at the best of times.
Top tip for buyers and sellers: I would say that a clutter free home is more appealing to potential buyers: first impressions are so important. For the buyer, they need to know what they want and see the potential of the property.
My dream home: My dream home would be a small country cottage, with a beautiful garden and allotment, overlooking fields and woodland…but within walking distance of the village pub!
Independent Mortgage Advisor
Find Richard Lester on LinkedIn
Favourite part of your job? Is saving the day! When something has gone wrong with someone’s mortgage application and we are able to intervene and get them into their dream home.
Top tip for buyer or seller? Before taking the plunge and applying for a mortgage speak to an independent mortgage advisor. With so many different lending policies between mortgage providers these days, it is worth your while to speak to someone impartial who will find you a mortgage based around your own needs.
What would be your dream home? My dream house would have to be a place overlooking the sea. There is something really calming about watching the waves roll in. Being by the sea takes me back to my childhood in the Northeast, having lemon tops in Redcar and enjoying fish & chips in Whitby.

What would be your dream home? Double-fronted old cottage.
