What role do you play for Fletchers Property Management?

Senior Business Development Manager.

What impact has Coronavirus had on your role?

With my role, I have had to adapt and change with the government restrictions that have come into place during various stages of this pandemic. Working remotely since March has been challenging with two young children, but also very enjoyable getting to spend additional time with them. I am conducting a lot more 'virtual' appraisals at the moment than I did pre Coronavirus and also doing more video calls and meetings than I used to.

Is there anything in particular you have done in this lockdown period to manage your mental and physical health?

Since the introduction of stage 4 lockdown each and every day since 02/08 I have gone for a walk, on most occasions with my daughter Emelia. Staying active and occupied is something that I feel helps your mental health and certainly physical health in this unprecedented time.

Are you receiving a lot of enquiry, either from prospective landlords or tenants?

Currently the enquiry for perspective landlords and tenants is down during stage 4 lockdown, however we have seen reasonable levels throughout the year. I see these levels will rise as we come closer to the end of stage 4 lockdown. Something I have learned during this pandemic is be a human first and an agent second, and be there for my clients during these tough times.

What are you hoping or expecting to see in the rental market in 2021?

Stability to the market and a positive perspective for landlords with more favourable market conditions.
