Louise started her career at the tender age of 17 working for GA property services in Warwick. Louise went on to work for Shipways Maypole as a manager at the age of 21, moving on to Burchell Edwards, for a number of years.
Other roles include Associate Director at Melvyn Danes and most recently Sales Director at Smart Homes which is where she met co-owner of Drakes Estate Agents, Emma Daffurn.
Louise lives in Hollywood and in her spare time (of which there is little!) she enjoys spending time with her gorgeous dogs and husband. Louise enjoys cooking, socialising with great friends and holidaying in the sunshine. Louise adores estate agency and is thrilled to be working alongside Emma in their very own business.
Emma started her working career at the age of 16 in retail, working for Morgam News in Hollywood and Beaties in Solihull.
In 2000 Emma decided to explore Estate Agency and found her first trainee role, working for Your Move in Solihull. It didn’t take long for Emma to come back home to Hollywood after securing a negotiator role at Darren Blowers Estate Agents and following that a more senior role for 5 years at Kelly Homes Estate Agents – now Drakes Estate Agents. From there Emma moved on to Shakespeares Estate Agents in Shirley but after 3 years Emma was poached by Smart Homes where she worked for 13 years as the Office Manager, this is where Emma and Louise first met and Drakes Estate Agents was hatched.
In Emma’s spare time she loves spending time with her friends and family especially her nieces and nephews and her dog Nellie who you may see in the office.
April joined the Drakes team in July 2023, she previously worked with Emma and Louise at Smarthomes which is were they all met. After carrying out property renovations with her husband over the years, April’s love for property soon became her vocation and she joined the estate agency world as a viewing representative which she has enjoyed over the past 3 years.
When she knew Emma and Louise had set up Drakes Estate Agents based in her home village she couldn’t say no to the fantastic opportunity when she was offered a new position as a Sales Advisor. April enjoys meeting new people and will be on hand to carry out viewings and deal with calls and enquiries in the office.
In April’s spare time she loves spending time with her children, husband and family and enjoys socialising with her friends and going to the gym. She is a great addition to the team.
