50 Years of Helping People Move Stephen celebrates a landmark event this year. Back in 1971, he embarked on his career in estate agency, and 50 years on, he’s still going strong. In this article, Stephen shares some of his background, why he still loves being an agent and the significant changes the home moving industry has gone through. Stephen said: ‘I started off earning £10 a week at an agency in Grantham. From there, I spent 13 years serving the good people of Slough and becoming professionally qualified. ‘I became a little bored of Slough and took a job in Seaford. I remember the day of the interview well as it was a wet and windy welcome to our town. ‘In 1987, I set up my agency, Stephen Newberry, and have never looked back. ‘I enjoy being an estate agent because you get to meet so many different people, all with their own stories and experiences. And for someone like me with a short attention span, it’s the perfect job as no day is the same, and you’re never stuck behind a desk all day. ‘Seaford has been a fantastic place to work in for the past 34 years. I enjoy the village feel of it, even though a lot of people live here.

‘Over the years, technology has been the big change to the way agents work. I love it (most of the time) as it means we can save time on tasks that used to limit how long we could spend serving our clients. So, here’s to the future.’ And Andrew is heading towards an anniversary himself as next year will be his 15th as an agent. All that experience means that you’re in safe and capable hands if you are thinking of selling or letting through us.
