Alison enjoys 17 years of sales success at Dacres

A senior sales negotiator is celebrating her 17th anniversary at Dacres, Son & Hartley.

Alison Reilly has been based at the Pateley Bridge office of the estate agency business since June, 2003.

She has sold properties with a total value of almost £345 million during that time, the most expensive of which was £1.2 million.

Alison grew up and lives in the town with her husband and two children.

She has sold hundreds of properties ranging in price from £90,000 to more than £1 million and is well-liked and thought of in the local community.

A keen charity fundraiser, Alison raised over £4,000 for Martin House Hospice when she abseiled down Ripon Cathedral.

Alison said:

“During my 17 years at Dacres no one day has ever been the same!

“I am happy to say that I really love my job and until the recent lockdown have only ever been away from the high-street office to have my two wonderful daughters.

“Having opened our popular office again after we were forced to shut because of Covid-19, we secured a sale on the first day back!

“We have had three more instructions this week and three more are in the pipeline for next week.

“What’s great about this area is the people, sense of community spirit and the fact that Pateley Bridge has so much to offer young people, families, retired people and those wanting a second home in the country.

“During the last 17 years I’ve sold all types of property, from apartments to grand farm houses and everything in between.

“In fact, I have sold many properties twice or three times over and often get referrals from happy customers which means we end up selling more than one property on the same street.

Dacre, Son & Hartley’s office manager, Ben Buckley, said:

“Alison has an unrivalled knowledge of the local area and is such a valuable part of our business.

“She knows exactly what buyers want and is fantastic at matching them with the right properties.

“Always enthusiastic and happy to help, she’s a real star and we are grateful for her professionalism and loyalty.”

Dacre, Son & Hartley has been based on Pateley Bridge’s High Street for more than 30 years.

    Yeah, well OK. It’s a bit of press puffery – but that does not diminish the fact that the company bothered to do it – and that she is undoubtedly a decent agent embedded in her community. It makes a nice change from all the grim news around us. Well done Alison. And Dacres.

    If companies cannot praise their successful staff …. what is the world coming to! All we seem to here is the down side in life, so some nice news is a refreshing change from the doom and gloom. Also says a lot about Dacres. Not many companies can retain staff that long, clearly has been an asset to them.

     

    Great recognition for a valued member of staff.

     

    You can have the best brand but it is the professional staff that counts.

      The best brand is nothing without those that carry it.
