Introducing the team – Ascot Estate Agent & Letting Agent




Nick Thring
Managing Director
Nick started his career as an estate agent in Bracknell after leaving school back in 1990. After taking over ownership of Duncan Yeardley in 2012, he has been ambitiously working hard to develop the business. He lives locally with Charlotte, who also works for DY, and their two teenage children.
If I were a superhero, my superpower would be…
To be able to fly with endless energy and distance.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
An estate agent! Weird I know. At an earlier age I also remember wanting to be a car mechanic.
On Sunday mornings, you can usually find me…
Hitting the trails and getting lost in Swinley Forest on my mountain bike.
Top of my bucket list is…
To explore more of the British Isles in our motorhome named ‘Elvis’.
My worst fashion mistake…
Still must be a multi-coloured Gucci shell suit. Why they would ever make a piece of clothing like this!
The thing I like best about my job is…
Supporting our fabulous team by giving them the best tools and helping them thrive and develop their skills.




Adele Buck
Sales Manager - Ascot
Adele has worked within a sales environment for many years and was a Branch Manager for a corporate estate agency prior to joining Duncan Yeardley, which gave her an excellent understanding of the property sales process and helping people move. She has lived locally for most of her life, apart from three years spent living and working in Munich, Germany. Adele’s son, Oskar arrived in 2019 and certainly keeps his parents busy outside of work, when they enjoy days out and travel.
The best piece of advice I’ve ever been given is…
To tackle the tough jobs first and the easy jobs last, that way you will get through the things you have to do a lot quicker!
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
A vet – until I found out that it wasn’t all about fluffy cuddles!
On Sunday mornings, you can usually find me…
Up at 6am with my young son supported by a large cup of coffee!
You might be surprised to know that…
I was once handcuffed and searched as a suspected threat to the royal family. You will be pleased to know that I was later released without charge after accidentally getting caught in the middle of a PETA campaign against the royals for using Canadian bears fur in the traditional guard hats.
The thing I like best about my job…
Are the people, whether that’s helping someone find their dream home, enabling their onward move or just offering some good advice that is well received and helps.
The person I’d most like to go for a drink with is…
My late father.




Rob Mann
Senior Sales Consultant
Rob is a dedicated family man who loves a walk in Swinley Forest with his little gang! Wife Emma, children Harvey and Sofia, and of course Flo – the Cockapoo! Rob is a Type One Diabetic, and in treating it and learning to live with it over the years, he has developed a love of cookery. It has also prompted him to undertake a PT qualification as a way to help others who fall foul of diabetes.
My favourite word in the English language is…
Tremendous.
When I was younger, I wanted to be a…
Voice actor!
My worst fashion mistake was…
A crushed velvet balzer (head in hands!).
If I were a superhero, my superpower would be…
Super strength! And to fly. And a batmobile!
The person I would most like to go for a drink with is…
David Goggins.

My favourite word in the English language is…
‘Happiness’ or ‘food’. I love both.

Oh dear. I’m probably still making them.

Walking on the beach with my husband.
Top of my bucket list is…
I did it recently! I went to The Masters golf championship in Augusta, USA. I’ll have to get a new one…

I have five amazing children.
