Growth and development are a key priority for directors, Laura and Matt. Always keen to invest in the business in order to deliver customer excellence, we welcomed two new members to the residential sales team. Last month, Lynn joined us as Estate Agent and Valuer, with Lisa Brown stepping into the new role of Trainee Estate Agent.

These new positions have been created in the year that Northwood celebrates a milestone 15 years in business.
A qualified chartered surveyor, with degrees in Geography and Land Economy at Aberdeen University, Lynn brings a wealth of knowledge and experience. Having worked as a rural practice surveyor in Angus and Aberdeenshire for many years concentrating on estate management, property lettings, valuations and agency, she took the decision to sidestep into pure residential estate agency more than a decade ago when she joined Stonachs.
Lynn said, “I’ve since worked in various solicitor-led estate agencies across the city, and I’m delighted to have joined Northwood North East. The team are able to provide a bespoke plan for each client, and with visibility on the national property portals, the exposure each property receives is remarkable – and evidenced in the swift movement of stock.”
Lisa honed her skills in delivering exceptional customer service during her time at New Look as a senior store manager, managing a cluster of Scottish sites. Latterly, she worked for Laings – one of the largest independent retailers of luxury kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms – and her dedication to exceeding expectations and passion for aesthetics will undoubtedly translate well into her new role within the property market.
Laura Mearns, Northwood owner and Director said, “We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome Lynn and Lisa to Northwood as we continue to invest and grow our estate agency offering. This comes at a time when we are celebrating our 15th year in business and opening our third office in Banchory, and these positions reflect our commitment to supporting and developing local talent – especially working parents. Both Lynn and Lisa have caring responsibilities, and we’ve been keen to ensure offer flexibility in a way that works for the business and family life.”
Northwood North-east is part of the Northwood GB franchise, opened by Laura and husband, Steven Mearns, in 2009. They pride themselves on being a family-focused, independently run business at the heart of their communities, with established offices in Rosemount Aberdeen and Inverurie.
