Meet the Spanish Estate Agent Team

Chloe Williams

Our family have owned property here for 12 years and we have latterly made the move ourselves to a place near the sea within easy reach of Estepona, Sotogrande and Malaga.
Before that we lived and raised our family in France, and the whole time we have been involved in providing a safe, friendly, professional service to people looking for their ideal property overseas and maybe a new life.
I am absolutely committed to respecting just what a big deal buying and selling property is.

I'm a keen sports fan and a bit of a culture vulture.

I speak English, French and Spanish and have some German and Welsh.

I hope to meet you in Spain.

Tony Reddin

I've lived on the Costa del Sol since the late 1980's and have witnessed enormous change.
I love it here. It has everything!
I have a real love of life and I proudly represented our area on Come Dine With Me
I am proud too, to be offering a totally professional service as a key member of TSEA.
I speak English and Spanish.
I will find you your dream home and look after all the important details to safeguard you - come buy with me!

You'll recognise me when we meet; I'm the one with the white glasses and the irritating ringtone

Shirin Sharifi

Shirin combines a multi­cultural approach with an in­depth knowledge of real estate on the Costa del Sol. Following her initial studies in law in the UK, Shirin has travelled Europe and the Middle East working on projects from real estate investment opportunities in the Cape Verde islands to working with a marketing consultancy in Dubai liaising between European agencies and Middle Eastern investors.

After several years spent working in the Costa del Sol real estate market, Shirin brings a wealth of experience of locations, properties and investment opportunities to The Spanish Estate Agent.

Speaking fluent English, Farsi and Spanish as well as French and Italian, Shirin can be your point of contact to find the right property to suit your requirements. She has also worked on several renovation projects and can advise on how to make the most of your property on the Costa del Sol.

When she's not working, Shirin will be out walking her dogs or you'll see Shirin out on one of her long distance runs!

John Ashfield

I started working in International Banking in Spain, UK, Egypt and Portugal, then gravitated to Project Management and Systems Installation for major financial institutions. I've lead a bit of a nomadic working life in Poland, Greece, Spain, Canada and USA. That was followed by 10 years in the Dominican Republic where I bought and sold a number of projects off-plan. I've now settled in Spain, in a house I bought 20 years ago to be closer to my family. I speak fluent Spanish and Portuguese and decent French.

Bruce Lavelle

Originally from South Africa, followed by the UK and Ireland, and finally Spain, Bruce has accumulated more than 17 years real estate experience in 4 different countries along with many more years in the corporate and business sectors. He offers a very rounded perspective and skill set. Having sold nearing 1000 properties, of all shapes and sizes, he still get the same “buzz” every time he finds the right property for a client!

"I believe in understanding the personal needs that are integral in concluding successful property transactions, and providing my clients with the necessary professionalism and care that they deserve. Ultimately they need to feel like they have enjoyed a unique and pleasurable property experience. This is my fundamental commitment to those who entrust me with their property needs.
Having found my true home on the Costa del Sol, it is my privilege to share all I have discovered here with my clients, and hope they can absorb my same passion for the quality of life offered."

Louie Gray

I moved down to sunny Estepona a year ago from not-so-sunny Liverpool. I cannot describe how much I love living here - the town itself is incredibly well maintained and decorated with flowers, and is very clean. The beaches are gorgeous, I love that I can make the most of them since it's always sunny - this wasn't the case with my hometown!

Aside from doing administrative work for The Spanish Estate Agent, I enjoy building computers in my spare time and am generally interested in IT, computers and the Internet.
I hope you come down to our office by the beach soon, I'm sure you'll love Estepona as much as I do!

John Jenkins

John worked for eight years for an international charity working in Europe, India and Latin America before returning to Ireland to work as a Site/Project Manager in construction for twenty years.

He moved to Spain in 2008 and has worked in the Real Estate sector using his experience in construction to help clients find their perfect property. John speaks English and Spanish and enjoys rugby and golf.

Roddy Darroch

It seems a long way from my childhood in Scotland to my current life on the Costa del Sol with my wife and young son. Since we moved here I have worked in the real estate industry and enjoy sharing my love of this great area with people planning to make the move.
I was a police officer for 20 years then ran my own companies for 12 years. I like being in touch with people and creating positive relationships.
When I'm not working I'll be playing golf or football or simply chilling out!
I still have links with Scotland - my 2 grown up sons are still there.

Gem Morch

I've gone from one extreme to another, growing up in the Philippines then marrying and moving to Norway where I lived for 14 years.  We had a holiday home on the Costa del Sol and 2 years ago moved here permanantly. It feels like home!

I speak Filipino, English, Norwegian and Spanish and my 15 year old son is tri-lingual. 

Currently I live in Estepona itself and I love the weather on the Costa del Sol.

I've been involved in property sales for most of my time in Spain.  I'm hoping to speak to many of you as I get in touch with all new clients who contact The Spanish Estate Agent.

I've lived in Spain now for 18 years and happily call it home. I am a fully qualified Chartered Accountant with a BSC Honours degree in Mathematical Statistics from the University of Liverpool. During my time in Spain, I've worked in accounting for Timeshare Group and as Financial Director of a foreign trading company. I'm now supporting the Financial Director of The Spanish Estate Agent and out of the office you'll find me with my young son, ten pin bowling or playing badminton.
