Meet The Team
Jack Holland
Managing Director
Jack is the driving force of the Link Homes team and wants nothing less than the best level of service for our customers. Since leaving school he jumped straight into work and has always been the first point of call for customers and takes great pride in ensuring they are well and truly looked after. Outside of work hours as well as estate agency Jack has a real love for Chelsea football club, maintaining his garden and taking part in competitive sports. Jack’s guilty pleasure is that he enjoys more sauce than actual food on his dinner plate.
Hettie Hayward
Senior Sales Negotiator
Hettie is the newest member of the team with over 3 years experience in the industry. Hettie kick-started her career during the stamp-duty holiday and was thrown in the deep-end into an incredibly busy marketplace. Along the way, Hettie has acquired transferable skills and a wealth of knowledge of the sales process, including liaising between all parties and long chains to progress a sale through to completion. Outside of work, Hettie enjoys going to London and seeing a musical, city breaks, cooking and nice glass of red wine.
Ashley Souto
Sales Negotiator
Ash started his career in property just over four years ago with an independent lettings agency, during this period, he’s been able to develop/deliver excellent customer service and a real passion for property.
He prides himself on being a friendly and approachable person, which reflects his personality both inside and outside of work. On his day off, you may find him tucking into his guilty pleasure which is an extra hot cheeky Nando’s.
Outside of work, Ash loves to travel abroad - being Portuguese & Welsh, he also loves to embrace different cultures and spending time with his family and close friends. His true love for sport shows when he is arguing with Jack on a Monday morning over the weekends football results.
Lauren Bassett
Sales Progressor
Originally from London, Lauren joined the team in 2020. The property industry was new to Lauren, however with her ‘can-do’ attitude she fitted in perfectly. Lauren loves learning the fast-paced way of the property industry and its ever-changing ways. In her spare time Lauren enjoys spending time visiting her family & friends back in London, being a mum to her daughter Amelia and doing her upmost not to purchase a new designer bag every weekend.
Richard
Professional Photographer
Richard is arguably the coolest man in the world of professional photography, never have we seen him without a smile on his face. It was important to us that we found a photographer that compliments our marketing style and matches our eye for detail. Richard will rearrange an entire room if he has to ensuring we capture the best shot for our clients. Richard moved to Bournemouth over ten years ago now, he never goes anywhere without his camera and if he isn’t enjoying a gin and tonic in his garden then you can find him riding through the countryside on his motorcycle.
Loyd Cole
Energy Assessor & Professional Floor Plans
Loyd is our designated domestic energy assessor and floor plan genius! Prior to this career path, Loyd has ten valuable years of estate agency experience, including four great years with the Link Homes team. Following the birth of his little girl in 2022, Margot, he decided to come away from the estate agency world so that he could be more flexible with his time. Although he isn’t in the office anymore to make terrible hot drinks, we are pleased to still be working alongside him behind the scenes. In his spare you will find him on a football pitch and when he isn’t playing football, he enjoys spending time with his friends and family.
