Charlotte Hannen-Saracoglu Lettings Director

I joined Lovett International as a junior member of the Lettings team in 2006. Through working hard, attending as many training courses as I could and striving to give excellent customer service, I was able to work my way up to my current position as Area Lettings Manager. I find communicating with Landlords, tenants and staff very important and Key. I enjoy negotiating, matching the right tenants to their ideal property, managing a lettings portfolio and ensuring landlords and tenants experience the very best lettings service. I really enjoy working as part of the Lovett team, everyone works together creating a friendly, professional, honest and welcoming atmosphere.

In my spare time I like to dine in new restaurants, hit the gym, explore around different countries and spend quality time with family and friends.

Emma Ford Lettings Manager

I have worked throughout Poole and Bournemouth for over eighteen years in both lettings and sales, and I have a strong passion for property and customer service. Offering a personable service to my valued landlords and tenants is exceptionally important to me, and I have worked with many of my landlords for over ten years. I have a vast knowledge of the industry and running large portfolios. I thrive on negotiating and finding the right properties for tenants and giving a honest and professional service. I previously managed Meridian Estate Agents for four years prior to the merge with Lovett, and look forward to working within the company to build on our services and grow the company.

In my spare time, I like to go to the gym, Beach walks , socialise with friends and see as much of the world as I can.

Katie Stone Senior Lettings Negotiator

I have worked in the property industry for two and a half years, beginning my career in Clifton, Bristol. I have had an interest in property from a young age, coupled with a desire to provide exceptional customer service for which I have won several awards for in the past. I love listening to what applicants want from their properties, and landlords from their tenants, and thrive off finding a perfect match. I previously worked for Meridian Estate Agents who have recently merged with Lovett, and look forward to further develop my career within this company.

In my spare time, I love visiting my home county of Devon, spending time with friends and family on the coast.

Mandy Bodenham Property Maintenance Coordinator

I joined Lovett Estate Agent’s Maintenance Department in July 2019. I have a background in building as I owned a company with my husband which dealt with plumbing, heating, electrical and general building works. Ideal background for this kind of position. I have also been a pub landlady running a pub in Wimborne and I worked in flight training for 11 years at Bournemouth Airport running the flight simulator training department. I have been married for 33 years and have a wonderful husband and daughter. I love nothing more than being with my family, I have just become a Nanny for the first time. I love motor racing, motor sports in general, I support AFC Bournemouth – up the cherries!

Matthew Jelley Property Manager

I have worked in several different areas of property for the last 9 years, and am keen to expand my knowledge whenever I can. By its very nature, the role of Property Manager is not for those who can’t handle pressure; it is certainly a job where you are never sure what you are going to have to deal with from day to day. I pride myself on my people skills, something that can come in very useful when dealing with landlords and tenants alike.

Having recently joined the company, my partner and I have moved to the area from Surrey, and we’re enjoying exploring and getting to know the area better. In my spare time I enjoy walking along Boscombe beach, reading Terry Pratchett novels, and watching the films.

Maximillian Z De Kment CEO - Lovett International & Saxe Coburg

I was educated privately at Grace Dieu Manor Preparatory School and then at Ratcliffe College, but however after ‘O’ levels I was forced to leave due to my mother running out of funds and hence started my journey as a tea boy in an Estate Agents in Hampton Court. I have worked in every single department of Estate Agency, commercial, residential and land from that day to now. I am a keen sportsman, I have played provincial rugby and Junior LTA Tour Tennis.  I now sponsor/coach my children to show jump on the affiliated BSJA circuit.

It was always my intention to keep the agency small and specialised as having seven children (two step children) I wanted to see them grow up and not be an absent father as many of my business piers and colleagues.

In 1989 I founded an Estate Agency called Carrington’s Residential who were based in Richmond, Teddington, Kingston and Hampton (South West London). After trading for 8 years, I was persuaded to sell the business for a substantial 7 figure sum. With these monies I then went about building a portfolio of development properties which had a rental income. I could be best described as a careful developer (if that exists!) Every property that I bought had to be rentable and had to have a form of development potential. I then set about maximising this potential and putting in planning applications to re-develop the properties. Once the permissions had been gained, the properties were then re-developed. This method of careful development enabled me at the height to own 497 rental producing properties.

Julian Hewlett Sales Director

I am the Area Sales Director for Lovett International, overseeing all branches across the BH postcode where I deal with all aspects of residential and commercial sales. I have 24 years of local estate agency experience within both corporate and independent agents. I have also worked for a local development company specialising in land acquisitions and new home sales. I joined Lovett International with a view to building a team where customer service is the main focus, and to give honest advice that help people move. I believe we can be market-leaders with innovative ideas combined with traditional hard-work. We have gone from strength to strength, helping people with a friendly professional service.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my two daughters and I am also a keen sportsman and do a variety of sports.
