Working within our family business and covering the full variety of work we undertake across the spectrum of fields we cover, means every day is different and a challenge which I highly enjoy. Our reach and scope continue to grow from residential sales to lettings, land and new homes. We work in such a collaborative manner in the office, even during the difficulties of Coronavirus we have been able to work openly and achieve the best results for our clients.
My working life has been property since leaving education starting with one of the large corporate agencies in the late 1970’s. By the late 80’s I was responsible for a group of three offices based in mid Essex but living in Suffolk. During the early 90’s I felt that the time had come to open my own business and living in Stratford St Mary, East Bergholt seemed the natural place. Thirty years later I cannot think anywhere I would rather be based.
Since we opened the office I have thoroughly enjoyed working within East Bergholt and our industry. I love the interaction with the general public both in matters of property and all other matters that occur! I feel that I have a great work life balance which is so important as I generally work two days a week and any other time that I am needed. This leaves time for my many other interests which include a varied fitness routine, fashion, antiques, dressmaking and Open Doors.
Has extensive experience within the property industry having worked in agency for over 20 years in the Suffolk area. Clare joined Grier & Partners 5 years ago and has brought a highly professional and diligent approach to leading the residential sales side of our business. Working closely with Aidan Grier and the team, Clare is able to provide a comprehensive and knowledgeable service to our clients. Outside of work Clare enjoys socialising and cooking for family and friends, gardening, travelling whether overseas or in the UK and in particular the Highlands of Scotland, keeping fit and walking within the stunning area in which we live or further afield along the spectacular Suffolk coast.
I joined Grier and Partners at the very start of 2020 as their Lettings Manager. Meeting new and existing landlords, helping tenants to find their new homes, is just part of my job I thoroughly love. In my spare time I enjoy volunteering at the Shelley Centre for Therapeutic Riding. This is part of the UK Riding for the Disabled. It is so rewarding to see the difference it can make to someone’s life.
I have been with Grier & Partners for a number of years now gaining a great deal of experience in Estate Agency. I have an interest in property and love to show people around the area. We live in a unique part of the country and being able to match people’s lifestyles and their families together with a suitable property can be challenging but very rewarding. My husband and I have extensive experience building and renovating property, but if we are not busy working we love to eat out and travel!
Having now been part of the team at Grier & Partners for a couple of years, I have gained a great deal of experience and knowledge of the property market in both sales and lettings. I enjoy every aspect of the job, from showing people around a property for the first time to handing over the keys to their new home on completion. I am skillful in taking pictures both internally and externally of our properties, building upon my qualifications in photography with practical property photography. Spearheading our broad adoption of walk-through videos and drone photography which we now offer to all of our vendors which allows buyers to understand our properties in close detail online. My main hobby is playing football at the weekend as well as having a season ticket at Ipswich Town (Come on you blues!)
