  Neal Mackenzie

  Director

  I left Forest School in 1979 & rather fell into Estate Agency after the army decided it could defend the country without my help! I worked with Michael Hardy when he was a director at Nicholas Estate Agents & then joined him when he started his own firm, Michael Hardy, the company of which I am now Managing Director. I have witnessed many changes in the town over the last 30 yrs: booms, busts & everything in between. When I'm not in the office I like to go cycling & I also play golf (badly!).

  Living in Crowthorne with my family since 1998, as well as working for Michael Hardy in both the Wokingham and Crowthorne property markets, I have personal experience of buying, selling, renovating and self-building in the local area. My wife, Sophie, teaches locally and my twin daughters attended local schools. In our downtime we enjoy nothing more than getting out into Swinley Forest and Wildmoor Heath with our dog, Lottie.

  Originally from Belfast, I have lived in England since 1998, coming here after graduating from Queens University Belfast. I moved to Wokingham 10 years later with my husband and we now have 2 young children. I started at Michael Hardy in 2010 and have never looked back! In my downtime, I try to keep myself challenged and fit by taking part in half-marathons and obstacle events like Tough Mudder.

  Nick Hougham

  I began my career in estate agency in 2009, joining Michael Hardy in June 2012 & have lived in & around the area for most of my life. I carry out all aspects of the job, arranging & conducting viewings, negotiating the best price for our clients’ homes & helping with sales progression, ensuring all parties are kept informed of progress until exchange & completion. Outside of work I spend time with my partner Katie, seeing friends & going to the gym. I’m also a big American Football fan.

  Kirsty Bentley

  Sales Negotiator

  I have worked for Michael Hardy since 2006, originally as a member of the Crowthorne team. Having enjoyed growing up in Crowthorne myself, I moved back when my three children were very young and they have all attended the local schools. Now they are older and heading off to university, allowing me a little more time to myself! When not working I am generally happiest outside working on my garden or out on a long walk, whatever the weather, with my dog Hettie.
