Weekly Update with Danny: Honest and Insights ‘Behind the Scenes’
My weekly update – A very honest one
Back in Jersey this week — and while it’s been a bit less glamorous than usual, it’s been a very real one. Non-stop calls, Zoom meetings, and a whole lot of time glued to my phone and laptop in the home office. It’s easy to think this business is all luxury villas and supercars, but truthfully, most of the work happens behind the scenes — endless coffee, no suits, and long hours figuring things out.
One big focus this week has been speaking with potential new agents for Jersey. I’m in no rush — finding the right person matters more than speed. They need to live and breathe this, be passionate, and ready for a career that doesn’t fit into a neat 9–5. That kind of drive is rare, but worth holding out for.
We’ve also added some interesting new properties to our Spanish portfolio — not in our usual hotspots, but in up-and-coming areas I believe will really boom in the next few years. It’s always exciting getting ahead of the curve.
After a few hectic weeks of travel, it’s actually been nice to slow down and reset a little. That said, from next week I’m back on the move — heading to some amazing places, meeting clients and partners, attending events, and visiting new listings. Can’t wait.
Until then, the sun’s out in Jersey and I’ll be making the most of it — mainly at my BBQ. As a reflection this is the time of year when people start to think about property moves, if I can help or advise on any aspect of valuation, listing or sale please do contact me
