In 1999, upon completing my education, I commenced my journey in estate agency as an apprentice at Dowen Sedgefield. Despite my youth at 20, I swiftly showcased my potential, earning a rapid promotion to the role of branch manager at Dowen Spennymoor. This accomplishment was followed by another step up, allowing me to oversee the dynamic Durham City branch, conveniently situated just minutes away from my residence along the serene River Wear.

In 2020, a significant opportunity arose for me to acquire Dowen from its founder, Denis Dowen. This pivotal moment stands as one of the proudest milestones in my life, marking my assumption of the role of managing director.

Under my guidance, Dowen has thrived, solidifying its position as one of the foremost and most accomplished estate agencies in the industry. Our comprehensive array of services encompasses all facets of estate agency, including sales, auctions, lettings, surveys, mortgages, and conveyancing.

If you are contemplating selling or letting your property, I extend an invitation to contact me or my dedicated team at 0789-4582378.

Beyond my professional pursuits, I am a dedicated father, finding immense joy in nurturing my son. Engaging in property renovation projects is a personal passion, as is relishing the company of cherished friends and family during dining outings. I hold a deep appreciation for travel, especially to foreign destinations, and have a strong affinity for automobiles. Additionally, as an avid football enthusiast, I actively participate in Crossfit to maintain both my mental and physical well-being.

My passion for sales has been a constant throughout my career, which began over 20 years ago in another firm before I joined Team Dowen at the Peterlee branch. Overseeing the move to our impressive new premises at 1 Yoden Way, I've led the branch to become one of the most successful in the area.

Now, I've brought my expertise closer to home, focusing on what I love most—selling houses in the Durham City Branch. We are a comprehensive branch, offering services ranging from residential sales, auctions, mortgages, surveys, to lettings.

If you're ready to sell or let, feel free to reach out to me, Barbara, personally at 0191 3757599. I'd be delighted to visit your property, sharing my extensive local knowledge and discussing the exceptional levels of customer service that I and my colleagues provide.

Beyond my professional pursuits, which I wholeheartedly enjoy, my activities always include spending time with my family, particularly my beautiful grandchildren. As a sun worshiper, I cherish my foreign warm-climate holidays. Recently, I've explored destinations like Cape Verde, Jamaica, Mexico, and Egypt, eagerly anticipating my next adventure to another exotic location.
