Rachel Read

Residential Lettings Administrator


Prior to my career in Estate Agency, I worked for a local roofing company, managing their suppliers, sub-contractors and customer quotes and accounts. Much of this experience was transferable to property management and in 2017 I joined Hobbs Parker.

Under the careful watch of my manager, Moya Bowerman, and surrounded by an excellent team, I’ve been able to quickly extend my industry knowledge.

Due to the level of detail and expertise it takes to become a competent agent, residential lettings has always been of interest to me. The forever-changing rules and legislation within the industry certainly keep me on my toes. Behind the scenes, the fast-paced and busy working environment is relentless but is equally quite addictive. I work in a close-knit team and always feel supported.

When I am not working, I am spending time with my full-of-life daughter, where we enjoy painting, cooking, going for long walks through the woods or on a beach, enjoying a lovely sunny holiday abroad, eating as much ice-cream as we can and any other mischief we can get up to.

When I get the chance to have a little me-time, I enjoy sampling our local restaurants, visiting a theatre show and participating in my weekly dance class.
