Another new addition

Richard Baker, a Director of Prop-Search

A further Director has left Lambert Smith Hampton's Northampton office to join the expanding commercial property agent Prop-Search.

Richard Baker BSc MRICS has been appointed as Director, specialising in industrial and logistics, and will be based at the company's new office at Queensbridge, Northampton.

Richard commenced his career in commercial property in private practise at GVA Grimley before joining Lambert Smith Hampton in 2004. He has worked for high profile clients including Aberdeen Property Investors, Wolseley UK, Aviva Investors and Wilson Bowden, and been responsible for deals including the letting of a 170,000 sq ft warehouse in Rugby, a 180,000 sq ft warehouse in Corby and various lettings at a 300,000 warehouse complex in Sywell.

Richard's appointment follows the announcement earlier this month that Ian Harman has also parted company with Lambert Smith Hampton where he was a Director within the Industrial and Logistics department in Northampton for nearly 25 years.

Chris Billson, a founding Director of Prop-Search, commented: “Richard brings with him a wide range of experience and his appointment will further strengthen our presence in Northamptonshire and beyond. We now have in place an even stronger team which will enable us to continue to grow our business in a competitive marketplace.”

Richard added: “I am delighted to be joining Prop-Search which is a modern, forward thinking consultancy. I am looking forward to getting involved in all aspects of their already successful business and forging relationships with clients to build on their reputation.”

Prop-Search was founded in Wellingborough four years ago by Chris Billson and Simon Toseland who have worked in the Wellingborough and East Northamptonshire region since 1987. During 2010 and 2011, the team expanded to include the appointment Samantha Jones MCIPR MCIJ, Peter Sullivan FRICS and David Robbins BSc MRICS.

As well as providing agency advice on selling, letting, acquiring, development and investment portfolios, Prop-Search provides a full management service through Prop-Manage and draws on a wealth of consultants specialising in areas such as bank valuations, building surveying, rating appeals, rent reviews and lease renewals, energy performance certificates, residential development and land sales, planning, commercial building insurance, legal and accounting.
