Estate Agency, I have very nearly done it all over the last 25 years. A Sales Negotiator, Valuer, Branch Manager, Area Sales Director and a Senior Divisional Director working for a larger corporate company looking after 25 Estate Agency branches and over 250 employees.
So why take the jump and risk it all by starting my own business? Well in fairness I had loved my career in Estate Agency before taking the plunge having only worked for a handful of companies on the way. However, all that said I can truly say that I had lost my sparkle for a while and to top it off the 500 miles a week commute from Kings Hill to London had taken its toll too.
So there really wasn't that much to think about, I certainly didn't want to do anything else.
Estate Agency is in my blood, so it was time to get back to the shop floor, doing valuations, meeting people and giving people advice, whether this be about selling, buying or letting.
Happily married to Lisa (also an estate agent) with 6 children, I needed to balance the home life scales too. Working 70 hours a week regularly, not seeing the kids on weeknights had already gone on too long so something had to give. Now with my work-life balance in check doing the job, I love with people who share the same vision, I think it's a pretty exciting and smart move.

I’m Jon Willoughby, I’ve seen and done most in my professional career, I’ve worked in bars, banks, motor trade, property and financial services.
Given my experiences I believe I am uniquely placed to offer sound financial advice, my area of expertise is self employed/director mortgages and I’m happy to talk through any scenario.
2014 saw me make the leap into agency, quickly getting to grips with a fast paced london market and allowed me to start the journey as my own boss. Eden estates is the latest adventure, I wanted to create a work life balance to enable me to have the freedom to spend time with my young family, having been in the london rat race for the last 7 years, the lockdown opened my eyes to how life should be spent.
Happily married to Kelly, and a proud father to my son, the spare time I do enjoy is usually spent in a park somewhere or walking in the beautiful surrounding villages.

Maddie Berry
Move Manager
Bio
Growing up in a family business that was based in the property market I have always had a high interest in pursuing a job role related to it. After working in customer services for the past 5 years I have always known that the property industry is the place I wanted to be.
In 2021 an opportunity arose for me to finally make this a reality. Although my time in estate agency has been short, I have learnt a lot and I am excited for where it will take me.
