I don't know about you, but it's been a busy old month over here! Most days you can find me either out filming a new property video, valuing properties in the area or, my favourite, being there for that magical moment when the new owners move in.

If you're interested to see my latest videos and take a sneak peek into lovely local properties, then I've created a home on my website for these.

The latest properties are a lovely 5 bedroom detached family home in Kew with a guide price of £1.6m and a prestigious 3 bedroom balconied apartment in the Wharf Riverside development in Teddington. Come and have a nosey here.

I'm always looking to go the extra mile and ensure that your house move is as seamless as possible.

Working with Greenacre

When I met Greg Stanworth from Greenacre Financial Services, I knew he would be the best person to recommend when my clients are looking for a new mortgage.

Greenacre Financial Services are a completely independent, Whole of Market Mortgage Broker offering a choice of around 80 lenders and up to 25,000 different mortgage schemes.

I'm proud to partner with a great guy at a great firm. I also talked him into getting in front of the camera with me, take a look!

A competition for half term!

One thing that my beautiful daughter Lily loves to do is colouring.

Amongst the change and confusion that Covid-19 brought our children, picking up colouring pens and having a few moments of mindfulness can restore calm.

Now that our children have returned to school and life is quickly becoming it's usual hectic self (anyone else back to running them around to swimming club, dance club etc.?), I thought we could try and continue these habits of mindfulness.

And throw in a prize too of course!

If you'd like to win a family photo shoot with DK Clarke photography (including two framed desk prints and a kids creativity hamper together worth a whopping £394), then print out the letter of your choice, decorate in your favourite colour and then tag me on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook.

If you haven't yet downloaded the colouring sheets, quick - grab them here. Entries must be in by 9pm on Sunday 6th June! (all the info you need is here)

He's back in the game

And last but certainly not least, he's back in the game!! It was great to be back to see the game at Chelsea last week. I was right behind the goal and a few friends even spotted me on TV!

Have you been able to get out and about a bit more now things are opening up again?

Thanks for reading, take care and speak soon,

Darren
