Harcourts Advantage / Non-Principal Property Practitioner

More about Deidre

My family keep me energised and motivated, spending time with them and making memories is what I treasure most. I have worked in the rental industry since 2008 and moved to East London in 2011. Whether you need help to find a tenant or you need a property to rent, I will be able to assist you.

I have a strong work ethic and believe that honesty is the best policy, even if it is not what my clients want to hear at the time, landlords will receive constructive feedback and advice, excellent marketing and screening processes, while the tenants will have every aspect of the leasing procedure explained to them.

I am proud to be part of a team that put people first. My love for property and what I do makes everything worth while. My strengths lie in co-ordinating and organising. I am confident that when I place tenants in properties they have met all the qualifying criteria and will be the best applicants for the property – not just the first.

My years of experience and knowledge of this industry ensure that I am able to give an above average level of service and using the advanced technology that we have at Harcourts, I am able to interpret market movements and demands confidently.

I share the dream of my team to become the # 1 agency in the region and am looking forward to our future growth and development.
