Recoco Property Search recruit new buying agent from Strutt & Parker
Andrew Cronan was a Director in the agency’s Country House Department before he decided to try his hand at buying rather than selling.
Specialist buying agency Recoco Property Search has hired prime property expert Andrew Cronan (main pic) to help clients buy property in Bath (main picture), the wider Somerset area, Wiltshire and The Cotswolds.
Cronan has vast market knowledge of the South West’s key luxury areas and joins from Strutt & Parker where he was a Director in the agency’s Country House Department before he decided to try his hand at buying rather than selling.
BATH BRANCH
After starting his career in the property sector in the early 1990s Cronan initially joined the Bath branch of Savills where he became Head of the Department in 2000 before being made Director in 2006.
He then joined Strutt & Parker’s Country House department in 2017 where he was responsible for selling prestigious properties in the South West of England, including Combe Hay Manor estate which, at the time, sold for over £10 millon.
He says: “My career has always been Bath and South West-centric which has allowed me to really study the local property markets and establish valuable contacts in each area.
“Over the years, I frequently dealt with Recoco Property Search on behalf of clients and was impressed with their approach which then sparked my interest in becoming a buying agent myself.
“It feels like the obvious next step in order to provide my clients with a service that is much more bespoke and I’m absolutely delighted to be joining such a reputable buying agency.”
EXTREMELY ACTIVE
Recoco Property Search was founded by Nigel Bishop in 1999 and helps house hunters find properties across London and the South East, Devon, Cornwall, Bristol, Bath, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Kent, The Cotswolds and East Anglia.
He says: “The property market in the South West, and Bath in particular, is extremely active with buyer demand often exceeding supply.
“Clients have often described their property search in the area as testing which is why it is crucial to engage someone who has the finger on the pulse and is even aware of off-market opportunities.
“I have no doubt that Andrew’s impressive knowledge as well as his people skills will present a valuable addition to our team and clients.”
