Letting agents in Woolwich

Where do you live? I am Malaysian Chinese and moved to the UK some years ago and at the moment, I live in Surrey, close to the river and surrounded by beautiful countryside.

What do you like most about Woolwich? Woolwich is well connected to both of London's financial hubs and the area has a good mix of modern architecture and carefully restored Grade II listed buildings. Royal Arsenal Riverside is a pivotal part of local life with commanding views of the Thames. It has a strong community spirit and is surrounded by great amenities so it’s a great place to live and to work.

What are your passions outside work? My true passion is cars and racing. Back in Malaysia I used to compete in the 12 hour Endurance Race in Sepang. I was also a team manager for the Bridgestone racing team. I also love getting out with the family at weekends.

Where do you currently live? I currently live in Charlton, so I know this part of South-East London well.

What do you like most about the Woolwich area? I really like the contrast Woolwich offers. It has a busy centre with plenty of shops, markets and activity, while the riverside has a much calmer and more peaceful feel. It’s a lovely place to relax and enjoy the views and makes Woolwich a great place to live.

Tell me a little about your property career & experience? I have extensive property experience, having worked in lettings across Surrey Quays, Greenwich, Shad Thames, Canary Wharf and Chelsea. I also spent time in sales to broaden my knowledge before returning to lettings, where I particularly enjoy building relationships and helping landlords and tenants achieve the right outcome.

What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? I enjoy spending quality time with my family, whether that’s planning days out, going on holiday or discovering new places together. It’s a great way to relax, switch off and create new memories.

Where do you currently live? I have lived here in Woolwich for the last 17 years.

What do you like most about working in the Woolwich area? Woolwich is home to a diverse community and has really been transformed with the introduction of Royal Arsenal Riverside. Connectivity with the rest of London is excellent with four main transport links into central London, Kent, Essex and the opposite side of the River. There’s a good mix of gastro pubs and restaurants along the riverside which adds variety to what is already a thriving modern urban neighbourhood.

Tell me a little about your property career? I began my property career in 2014 assisting with marketing and sales administration for an estate agent in nearby Charlton. I then moved into lettings and property management which I really enjoyed. I have lots of experience liaising with tenants and landlords throughout the renting process and enjoy meeting people from all walks of life so this role really suits me.

What are your passions outside work and how do you relax? I am a mother to five wonderful sons and grandmother to two adorable boys, so my family keep me on my toes which I wouldn’t change! When I do have time, I like to read or go for a nice stroll with my dog.
