Helen Thring
Marketing & Operations Manager
Helen is Nick’s sister and she successfully set up and established our Lettings Department back in 2013. Having spent much of her career prior to DY working in marketing, Helen now heads up our Marketing & Operations department. This suits her organisational skills, creativity and keen eye for detail perfectly! She loves taking long walks with her Labrador Finn and when time permits, travelling and visiting new places around the globe.
Top of my bucket list is…
To visit more new countries and ultimately, travel round Europe in a camper van.
My guilty pleasure…
Ben & Jerry’s cookie dough ice cream – I’ve got a very sweet tooth, for my sins.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
Less shy.
If I were a superhero, my superpower would be…
To find a cure for cancer and dementia. Here’s hoping.
On Sunday morning, you can usually find me…
Up bright and early for a dog walk!
You might be surprised to know that…
One of my earliest qualifications as a teenager was as a Clarks trained shoe fitter. Ohh, all those back to school shoes!

It is generally acknowledged that the most popular times for families to move home are Spring, early summer and Autumn. If you give this much thought it’s pretty obvious why. No-one much fancies viewing (or conducting viewings) over Christmas and most parents don’t want to be dragging their children around with them during the school holidays! Term time therefore becomes a prime time to sell your property.
But more than this, specific months can be great for selling your home. Here are 4 great reasons why October is a great month to get your home on the market;
1: Summer holidays are over, schools are back, kids are taken care of and there is still enough light in the evening to do weekday viewings after work!
2: Christmas is still two or three months away. Ask any agent or house builder and they’ll tell you that Christmas becomes a great deadline target for house buyers! They might not want to move in at Christmas – but an exchange of contracts before the Christmas break can give you an extra reason to celebrate and time to prepare for a move in the new year!
3: It may still be light(ish) in October, especially before the clocks go back, but cooler evenings can make for more liberal use of lights, central heating – and even that feature open fireplace. Autumn does wonders for making a home seem warm and welcoming!
4: Outside, the garden is still green or shades of autumn. Either way, gardens look great in the autumn – and the lawns in less need of a cut too – always a bonus when you are undertaking regular viewings!
There we are. What better month to list your home for sale. Contact us at Duncan Yeardley for a no-obligation valuation and make use of our local team of experienced negotiators in Bracknell this Autumn.
