His interests include snowsports, fieldsports and he's also a keen collector of contemporary art.

Tom has over 15 years experience in residential estate agency and has spent 12 of them working in and around the city fringe, Islington and Shoreditch. This provides the basis for the in-depth lettings market experience and honest advice that he provides. Tom has a Masters degree in Building Surveying which leads on from his passion for property in general. He is an avid Rugby Union fan and enjoys reading and field sports in the countryside.

With 15 years experience in estate agency, Clair has worked at Winkworth since 2013. After initially joining the company as a Senior Sales Negotiator, she now works as Sales Progression Manager.

Outside of work, Clair plays mum to a three young children - probably more challenging than any tricky sale!
