We’re delighted to be working on some exciting projects at the moment which see us diversify slightly from our ‘everyday’ business -but we’re using one of our team’s expertise to extend our support in other areas. Introducing our ‘New Homes’ services….

Prior to joining the Ribston Pippin team in March 2015, Bernie had worked as a Senior New Homes Sales Negotiator at Dacre Son & Hartley New Homes for 12 years, with an excellent track record of success, even when market conditions were challenging.

She looked after various developer clients and whether the site had over 40 plots or just a couple of bespoke properties, the clients were assured of the same service.

To support her practical experience, Bernie completed the NFOPP (National Federation of Property Professionals) Level 3 Award in the Sale of Residential Property and the ABBE (Awarding Body for the Built Environment) Level 3 NVQ in Sale of Residential Property.  She then passed 4 further exams for which she studied a variety of disciplines including property law, property appraisal, basic building construction and general practice relating to residential property sales – so we think she’s pretty qualified to know what she’s talking about and hope you would agree!

Her father also had a building company do Bernie  spent many of her formative years calling at building sites on the weekends to check on progress, so she’s just as happy on site with her boots, high vis and hard hat on as she is in the office.

So what are we up to in this area?

We have a couple of projects we are collaborating on at the moment where we have been involved in sourcing plots of land, selling land and managing the process of site development.

This image is of Fairy Dell, a development we are supporting fellow Menston businesses Bankhead and Alf Construction with. We will be handling initial enquiries, viewings to site, choices of interiors such as kitchens and bathrooms, then taking the responsibility of seeing the sale through the legal process to completion.

We’re really excited about this new development to our services. Please shout up if you’re looking for land, or thinking of splitting some off your property to sell – we have experience in this and would love to share it with you 🙂 Our creative thinking could find you a new revenue stream, or a new dream home that doesn’t even exist yet. Exciting times indeed!
