Meet The Letting Agents Team Manchester City Centre

Wayne EastmanDirector

Wayne now has two roles at We Let Properties, he is both Director and Chauffeur to our company mascot – Bailey the Lhasa-Poo. Way back in 2009, after ten years working in Property for different agents, Wayne had a vision – he knew there was a gap in the industry for an agent who would let and manage a property without any of the hassle or ulterior motives that are sometimes present. He took all his passion for property and providing an excellent service and left his current employment to start up We Let Properties and he was proved right as We Let Properties now consistently ranks at the top of the league tables despite being one of the only independent Letting Agents left in Manchester City Centre. Unfortunately Wayne had to retire from playing in his Rugby union team as turning up to valuations with bruises wasn’t the look he was going for but now he gets to enjoy from the side lines as a season ticket holder for Sale Sharks.

Emma EnderwitzOperations Director

Emma got the bug in 2006 when she decided it was time to take the passion for property that Sarah Beeny’s TV shows had ignited and leap into a career in the Manchester lettings industry. Upon joining a growing, independent letting agent, she immediately knew this was the right career path for her and quickly developed skills in all aspects of the business. This is also where she met Wayne and Manchester’s own answer to Phil and Kirstie, the dynamic duo of Wayne and Emma was formed! It was only natural that as soon as there was enough work for two people, Emma came to join We Let in the broom cupboard (how we refer to the first office) and since then has been instrumental in the growth of the business.

Tracy KettleLettings Manager

2020 was a year that will forever be etched in our memories for many reasons, but our ray of sunshine in all of the tough times that year came in the form of our very own Tracy aka “Track and Trace”. After years of working on emergency out of hours maintenance, with housing associations and student lets, Tracy took the opportunity when leaving her home town for the bright lights of Manchester City Centre to apply all her skills to professional residential lettings and hasn’t looked back since. Outside of working hours, you’ll either find her pint in hand in a cute little independent pub in the Northern Quarter or with her head in a good book on a roof terrace in Ancoats.

Jodie WolstencroftProperty Manager

Experienced property manager Jodie loves working in lettings and the interactions with landlords and tenants. Maybe it’s her chilled nature, the relaxation skills she learnt in Thailand, or her personal motto “life is too short to worry”, but she’s unfazed by the scariest of maintenance issues and always here to help to ensure customer satisfaction. Jodie also loves dogs, so when Bailey is in the office, he knows who to head straight to for his treats!

Bethanie EvansProperty Manager

Born and raised in Edgeley, Stockport; proud Mancunian Bethanie knows Manchester and it’s suburbs like the back of her hand, although a self-confessed shopaholic; she’d probably provide directions by listing the closest boutique shops! Her previous job in a diy store along with a love of Kevin McCloud and Grand Designs led her to a career in property management which started in South Manchester and brought her to team We Let. Bethanie loves seeing a happy outcome for landlords and tenants when their issues are resolved and enjoys the added perk from dealing with so many nice properties that she can get lots of inspiration for her own home décor!

Ocean HattonProperty Manager

Travel mad Ocean loves working in lettings because it brings her into contact with so many different people in different circumstances. With 4 years of lettings experience and knowledge of the area (another South Manchester local!) she’s perfectly placed in our Property Management team. If Ocean could pick a superpower it would be teleportation so she could constantly visit new places, but until then she makes the most of being able to pop over to Europe on weekend trips whenever she can.

Maaria KhanProperty Manager

With over 15 years of experience in lettings and property management, your tenancy is in safe hands with Maaria! As a landlord herself, she understands the importance of a well-maintained property, reliable and trustworthy tradespeople and the benefits of happy tenants. Her two young children keep her on her toes outside of work, so it’s not surprising that if she could invent a holiday, it would just need two key aspects; sun and quiet!

Katie HeaddockLettings Negotiator

Our “Yorkshire Lass” Katie swapped the Moors for the cobbles of the Northern Quarter when she moved to Manchester. Her superhero power would be always knowing where things were, but she’s already put that into real life action by quickly getting to know all the best residencies in Manchester city centre. She loves getting to know people whilst out on viewings and loves matching applicants with the right properties. When she was younger, Katie thought she would be a vet because of her love of science and animals, but now she’s happy to concentrate on lettings and showering her animal love towards Bailey when he’s in the office!

Michael LongstaffLettings Negotiator

With over 11 years experience working in property in Manchester, we challenge you to find a building or area Michael is unfamiliar with! Maybe its his degree in human geography that gave him the perfect people skills required to be an excellent lettings negotiator but with him on your side you’ll definitely find your home sweet home - just make sure he’s had his morning coffee first!

Samuel Illingworth Lettings Assistant

The smiling face that greets visitors as they enter our Castlefield office is Samuel who was destined for a career in property just like his dad and uncle. He would say to anyone interested in working in lettings; "just go for it!" As a fitness fanatic, in his spare time he loves going to the gym, boxing and snowboarding as well as supporting his beloved Liverpool FC - the wrong reds in our opinion but at least he's not a blue!

Bailey Eastman-HensonWe Let Properties Mascot

Bailey aka the Bailster, Bails, Baba, B-Dawg has been a starring member of Team We Let since 2011 when he moved to the big City as a little pup. If you’ve been lucky enough to meet Bailey, you’ll understand why we think he must’ve been a Great Dane in a previous life! On his days in work, he patrols the office keeping everyone in line and getting lots of attention and strokes from all the tenants coming in to check in or return their keys. Since we moved to Duke Street he only comes in a couple of days a week because in his words “it’s woof at the top”. He spends his spare time in the park with his ball blaster, chasing squirrels, packing out zzzzz’s and generally just being cute.
