  David Badger

  Valuer

  David Badger – Valuer “An adopted Teessider, having moved here 25 years ago, I live in Yarm and have worked in the property industry for more than 10 years – the last six with Hunters. My job is to act on the behalf of the vendor to list and sell their property at the best possible price. The interests of the customer are paramount to me and I promise to do my level best to ensure a top class service. I’m a bit of a workaholic, so nothing you ask of me will be too much trouble.” Did you know? “When I’m not at work, I love a game of golf, along with cooking and going to the cinema. I also love to travel. In fact, the girls in the office often joke that I’d make an excellent travel agent because I’m always advising people on the best holidays along with places to eat and visit. At Hunters, our commitment is to provide our customers with a professional service so please don’t hesitate to ask me any questions – about property or travel!”

  Lisa Preston

  Sales Director

  Lisa Preston – Branch Manager “Running an estate agency is hard work but exciting and every day brings fresh challenges, so it’s never a dull place to work. One of the best rewards when selling property is completion day when vendors and buyers receive the keys to their new home. I also love visiting people in their homes. You have to have a real passion for people and property to do this job well. I have a fantastic and knowledgeable team and we run a very busy, vibrant Sales Department here on Teesside. We’re all equally committed to helping you get the best possible price for your home or property. We also work closely with our Lettings team, local solicitors, mortgage advisors and surveyors, as we’re here to cater for all our customers’ needs, ensuring they receive convenient, all-under-one-roof customer service!" Did you know? “A proud Teessider, Middlesbrough born and bred, one of my proudest moments was the day we first opened Hunters in June 2010. I remember listening to England play against Slovenia in the World Cup as I prepared the branch for its big opening. I knew our 1-0 win was a good sign!”

  Ian Paterson

  Acklam and Brookfield Agent / Director

  Ian Paterson – Director “Having helped launch Hunters Teesside during the summer of 2010, I’ve seen it grow into arguably the best estate agents on Teesside. I’m lucky, I get to do the job that I love doing, helping people to sell property in the fantastic area of Acklam and Brookfield. I’ve been involved in the property industry since leaving school in 1988; and it hasn’t escaped my notice that that was a millennium ago. What that time has given me is the experience to know that selling property is so much more than a business transaction. We see people at the happiest times in their lives but we also meet them at their most testing times. I never forget that there’s a person and a story behind every house sale and every property purchase. I find that my degree in History gives me a perspective about the property industry – markets come and go but houses remain a solid investment and, more importantly, a place to make a home. If you’re selling your Middlesbrough home, we’d love to chat about how we can help get the best possible price.” Did you know? “I missed Chelsea’s infamous first goal against Boro 43 seconds into the 1997 FA Cup final because I was still wiping my eyes and blowing my nose after blubbing my way through ‘Abide with Me’. It didn’t get much better after that…”

  Charlotte Melling

  Sales progressor

  Charlotte Melling – Sales Progressor “A member of the Hunters team since 2014, I’m an experienced estate agent, though I took a slightly different role as a Sales Progressor when I joined Hunters Teesside. I love my hands on role, helping people move to and from their homes, providing guidance and expert advice to help make the selling and buying process as stress-free as possible. We’re all committed to providing a fantastic customer service level at Hunters – though I have to point out that I receive the most ‘thank you’ cards and chocolates – it’s just a shame I have to share them with the other staff!” Did you know? “I love horse riding and wish I had more time for it, while the two proudest moments in my business life were achieving a Degree in Business and winning the Hunters Employee of the Half Year award ahead of staff across our national network of 177 branches.”

  Laura Bashizadeh

  Accompanied Viewer

  Laura Bashizadeh - Sales Negotiator and Accompanied Viewer “Having joined Hunters in February 2016, I’ve already learned that no two days are the same. One day I may be in the office registering buyers and negotiating offers and the next I could be meeting and greeting people to show them around the homes we have for sale. As a people person, working with the public suits me down to the ground.” Did you know? “Having a job that keeps me on my feet is something I’m used to as an ex-cabin crew member with Virgin Atlantic. One of my proudest moments was receiving my wings, graduating after completing an intensive six-week training course with the airline.”

  Leah Gray

  Sales Negociator

  Leah Gray - Sales Negotiator “A member of the Hunters team for many years, my role is to obtain as many details about the properties we have for sale across Teesside and match it up with the people who are looking to buy. It’s a little bit like a dating website - we look to find the right buyer for the right house and marry the two together! Having worked in a sales environment all of my working life, I enjoy the buzz of making a sale and enjoy the joy and relief of buyers and vendors when sales are agreed.” Did you know? “I was previously a full-time Sales Negotiator but returned to work on a part-time basis after the birth of my son. I now enjoy the work/life balance I have, spending quality time with my son and some adult time when I come to work.”
