Morgans bolsters property teams with new appointments

Nine new members of staff have been appointed at City Living Specialists Morgans. The portfolio managers, sales negotiator, lettings negotiator and new business development manager are based across the firm’s Dock Street and North Leeds offices.

Managing Director Jonathan Morgan says: “We have had a cracking year so far, with both our rentals and sales teams performing extremely well as the market continues to thrive. This raft of new appointments will strengthen our teams and ensure our clients continue to receive the high levels of personal service our business is renowned for.” Portfolio managers Charlie Lampkin, Gemma Johnson, Katie Radcliffe and Kirsty Helliwell are all based at the company’s City Centre office on Dock Street. All four are the main point of contact for landlords and they are also responsible for handling maintenance queries, carrying out contracting and referencing as well as check ins and check outs for tenants.

Graham Gomersall joins Morgans as a sales negotiator and Felix Hook has been appointed as a business development manager. The pair are also based at Dock Street.

In the North Leeds office, rental portfolio managers Amy Buckle and Amanda Humphrey and rentals negotiator Ellis Cann join the existing team, who all operate from a new 1,200 square feet office opposite Headingley’s Arndale Centre on Otley Road providing tenant, property investor and landlord services across North Leeds.

Jonathan adds: “Our business has successfully negotiated the property downturn and we have had our best nine months in terms of lets, sales and occupancy figures since 2007. Business in both our City and North Leeds offices is up by around 10% in comparison to the same period last year and as we continue to grow and the market improves, it’s essential that we attract the right people like Charlie, Gemma, Katie, Kirsty, Graham, Felix, Amanda, Amy and Ellis to deliver industry-leading standards of customer service to highly valued clients.”

Morgans manages the largest rentals portfolio of apartments in the City which range in price from £475 to over £2,000 per calendar month. The firm also has a dedicated corporate arm dealing with businesses relocating staff to Leeds and a highly experienced sales division marketing apartments priced between £110,000 and £725,000.
