Two new appointments at Dacres to manage growing lettings division

Two new letting managers have been appointed by Dacre, Son & Hartley, as the firm’s lettings division continues to expand.

Nadia Sumner and Kate Dickens will work across the Ripon and Thirsk branches, and report into the new head of lettings Emma Kerrywood, who joined Dacres this summer.

Nadia has 17 years’ experience and joins from Reeds Rains, where she worked as a lettings manager, covering 40 northern branches. Kate has almost five years’ property experience, and has worked as a lettings negotiator for both Linley & Simpson and Hunters.

Head of lettings, Emma Kerrywood, says: “Both Nadia and Kate have the relevant experience and skill-sets required to manage our ever growing property portfolio for our landlords. They will be the first point of contact for both landlords and tenants. A typical day will see them carrying out viewings, drawing up and processing tenancy agreements, liaising with credit reference companies and solicitors, and making sure all of our landlords and tenants are happy with our service.”


Dacre, Son & Hartley offers landlords both a ‘let only’ service and also a fully managed service, which includes sourcing tenants and dealing with contracts, rent collections and moving days, from all 21 of its branches across North and West Yorkshire. Nadia and Kate’s appointments mean the firm now has a team of 12 lettings professionals, who manage a portfolio of well over 1,000 properties, which range in price from £375 to over £1,595 per calendar month.
