Philippa Sole
CEO & FounderOver the years, I have been fortunate enough to expand my business organically, selecting specialist team members who complement each other, while expanding our reach into Talbot Woods and Land & New Homes. I have been working in the local area as an estate agent since I graduated from Bournemouth University in 1999 with a bachelor’s degree in Land-Based Enterprise. I’m certified by the Guild of Letting Agents and regulated by the Property Ombudsman.
Throughout this time, I’ve been responsible for listing and negotiating a significant number of high-profile transactions in the BH13 And BH14 postcodes whilst working at the international firm, Savills, and at local independent agents, Mays and Berkeleys.
