About me
I specialise in residential and commercial real estate transactions, representing landlords and tenants of business premises, and sellers and purchasers of residential and commercial property.
My approach is to try to present complicated (and, to be frank, sometimes dull) real estate issues that arise during real estate transactions in a manner that is easily digestible so that clients can make quick and informed decisions.
The process can often be stressful for clients, so I hope to guide them calmly and am happy to deal with the minutiae of a matter to enable them to focus on the more important aspects of their transaction.
I find the most rewarding part of my role is when a client reverts to me with clear instructions on a complicated issue that I have provided advice to them on.
Away from work, I have a passion for music and play the drums in a covers band.
