    Karen Campion/Sales Manager
    As a property Sales Manager, I have been working for Innovate Estate Agents using a mixture of negotiation, marketing and sales skills. As well as finding new clients and advising them it is the right one for them, I help to control their sale to completion. I also work very closely with other Sales Consultants within our offices to ensure our clients are always satisfied.
     I pride myself on being the following; 
    * An excellent communicator 
    * A very good negotiator 
    * Able to inspire trust and confidence in sellers and buyers 
    * Able to work under extreme pressure!

    I have been a Property Manager at Innovate for 5 years and have escalated the head PM. I have witnessed the growth of the lettings business, as well as our own portfolio. My role is to manage all repairs and accounts. We have a dedicated 24/7 contact line and I usually receive repairs via our user-friendly software and then liaise directly with landlords and our panel of approved contractors.

    Loren Haycock/Lettings Consultant
    I joined Innovate, in September 2013 as a senior negotiator. Prior to this, I worked in the same field and am pleased to bring my expertise and experience to the market leader in the Sandwell area. The reason I joined Innovate was that it matched my ambition. My daily routine is essentially hectic however I thrive working in such an environment and I particularly enjoy the positive atmosphere among our team.

    I joined Innovate as a Lettings Administrator, which I thoroughly enjoy! I have taken on many responsibilities that vary from handling notices to uploading and editing property advertisement. With the continuous growth and knowledge I am gaining from my time at Innovate, I hope to progress to a senior Operations Manager in the near future. I am extremely proud of my achievements so far and look forward to see what more opportunities I have yet to experience!

    I joined Innovate estate agents in June 2014 as an apprentice completing the course in sales negotiator. Since joining I have been able to not only improve my skills in the job role and experience new responsibility throughout my first year, but also my own qualities. Allowing me to learn how to communicate correctly with new and existing customers; negotiating sales with both buyers and sellers. The job has already taught me a lot and look forward to seeing what I can learn and where the job can take me.

    Amrit Sawan/Co-Founder
    Coming from a family background of property, I was somewhat familiar with the overall process of buying, selling, renting & development. One issue which triggered me was the services provided from the period of the late 90's moving into the new century. I felt estate agents never progressed into the new age of the digital era. Hence, why I felt the need to Innovate. Together with my fellow co-founder, we established a plan and with sheer determination we are now market leaders in the areas we cover. 

    We also have invested in property development in the local region and work closely with local authorities, in regards to the housing-crisis our region faces. I believe the experience of this puts us directly in the shoes of any vendor or landlord. We know what is required to run efficiently & effectively. We have relayed these work ethics into our team, who now have combined experience of over 60 years. 

     During the day-to-day running at Innovate, I partake in general management along with training members of staff to excel their own expectations. We pride ourselves on running a very efficient operation, and I'm a firm believer in three core principles, which we instil in our whole team; Progression, Organisation & Pro-activeness. I'm also from a legal background, which is incredibly helpful in our profession. 

     In my spare time, when not busy with the Innovate family, I enjoy reading, travelling and general fitness.

    Steve Sandhu/Co-Founder
    After leaving university, I started my career in 2002 as the property market was booming and I didn't want to miss out. I ventured into Bairstow Eves estate agent as a franchisee, successfully progressing on to opening to a number of cold start branches in and around Sandwell. I also qualified and practiced as a mortgage advisor in early 2004.

    Since deciding to go independent away from the restraints for franchising, we soared in the rental market due to the 2007 recession and impressively transformed and rebranded to the now well-known brand we know as Innovate Estate Agents.

    Moving in to opportunities for development we opened doors to Innovate group development and construction, of which we successfully have our own investment fund which is managed and operated as Innovate.

    Our business ethos is working hard with integrity and persistence to achieve the highest level of service for our clients. My general daily duties involve training staff and overlooking the sales operation of our offices.

    Testimonials from Landlords

    • Landlord Testimonial

      Jack Lawlor
      "I've been buying properties via Innovate since 2012. Always a pleasure to work with, very helpful and friendly staff who simplify the most difficult of situations in buying a house. They always source me a tenant in no time leaving little or no void period after I complete my purchase. I'm yet to complain about any tenant they've found me, although they provide a rent guarantee service. Thanks guys!"
    • Landlord Testimonial

      Dingz Singh
      "I purchased a buy-to-let via Innovate in 2011, who helped me with the renovation to bring it to a rentable standard. They then helped to source me suitable tenants and managed the property in a professional manner. I would like to thank all the staff for their support and guidance and making the journey relatively hassle free. Keep up the great work and look forward to working with you again in the near future."

      Satisfied Customer
      "I have used Innovate for about 2 years. I have always found the staff to be polite and helpful and always deal with the property as per my instructions. Emma in particular is always professional and approachable and deals with my tenant on my behalf. The fee I pay for this service is value for money and allows me to choose if I deal with a problem personally or request the agent to do it . This company of letting agents is strongly recommended. "
    • Landlord Testimonial

      Josh Enfield
      "I approached Innovate to manage my property which I initially managed myself. My tenant was a nightmare, never paying rent on time and causing me great grief. Innovate swiftly took over the property, issued the relevant sections, approached the tenants guarantor and eventually evicted the tenant efficiently. I now use them to manage my property full time and I am happy I found them."
    • Landlord Testimonial

      Kirsty Atkins
      "My mortgage advisor advised me I needed to rent my current house in order to purchase my dream home. I approached Innovate's Letting team and it was a relief how I was guided through the whole process stage by stage. Innovate found me a tenant very quick, and before I knew it I was receiving rent. Highly recommended."
    • Landlord Testimonial

      Mr J Pitman
      "Innovate currently manage 6 of my rented properties, offering me rent guarantee on all. I find Innovate's service of the highest level, and I have been a landlord for over 25 years. I receive my inspection reports by email and find myself fairly care-free which is a huge weight lifted for any landlord!!"
