Away from the office he enjoys watching and playing football with friends.
The thing I like best about my job is…
Having clients come back to me from a previous move and seeing the change in their lives, whether it be they’ve had a child and are now upsizing or the kids have flown the nest and they need to downsize.
Top of my bucket list is…
To go on a safari in South Africa.
My guilty pleasure is…
Escape rooms.
If I were a superhero, my superpower would be…
Mind reading.

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.
Bradley Holt
Assistant Sales Manager
Prior to entering the world of property over a decade ago, Bradley was a fully trained Tiki Mixologist focussing on Caribbean tipples and extravagant fire & light explosive shows, a natural ‘people person’ with an entertaining edge!
Despite spending his working hours inside our clients’ delightful homes; in his spare time Bradley prefers to be exposed to the elements sheltering under canvas and the night sky, planning the hikes for the day to follow. If time (and weather!) permits, you may also find Bradley out on the golf course with friends and family.
The best piece of advice I’ve ever been given is…
You never know what someone is going through – so always be kind and do not judge.
My worst fashion mistake was…
100% the orange camouflage cargo trousers, with a skin tight black wool jumper, beautifully matched with black Ugg boots. This was back in college, but I am still reminded to this day!
My favourite word in the English language is…
Indubitably – impossible to say without sounding very formal, but rarely called for as has many simple synonyms!
On Sunday mornings, you can usually find me…
Either waking up in a tent somewhere or at a car boot sale rummaging through golf related items or random antiquities.
One of my funniest memories is…
Finishing one of my final university exams to realise that I was so sleep deprived, I was dressed so erratically that I wasn’t even wearing a pair of shoes. I then forgot where I lived and had to hang around the library until I figured it out.
The thing I like best about my job…
The people. I barely finished reading the question before answering this. I get energy from good people, and am very lucky to have this both inside and out of the office. Seeing the smile or even sometimes tears of joy from a client getting where they need to be really makes the long hours we put in worth it, and more!

FAQS ABOUT TENANTS
1. How do I apply to rent a property with Duncan Yeardley?
To apply for a rental property, you’ll need to complete an online application and provide proof of ID, income, and references. Once your application is approved, we’ll guide you through the next steps, including tenancy agreements and deposit payments.
2. What documents do I need to rent a home in Bracknell or Ascot?
Typically, you’ll need a valid photo ID, proof of income (such as payslips or bank statements), and references from your employer and previous landlord. If you’re new to the UK or self-employed, extra documentation may be required.
3. How is my deposit protected?
We register all tenant deposits with a government-approved Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS). This ensures your money is legally protected and returned fairly at the end of the tenancy, subject to property conditions and any agreed deductions.
4. What happens if there’s a maintenance issue during my tenancy?
If you experience a maintenance issue, you can report it online or by contacting our lettings team. For fully managed properties, we have a dedicated team who handle repairs quickly, including 24/7 support for emergencies.
5. Can I rent a property with pets?
Some landlords do accept pets, while others may have restrictions. We’ll always make it clear in the property listing if pets are considered. If you’re unsure, just ask our lettings team for advice on pet-friendly rentals.
6. What are the upfront costs when renting a property?
Before moving in, you’ll typically need to pay a holding deposit (capped at one week’s rent), your first month’s rent in advance, and a security deposit (usually up to five weeks’ rent). We’ll provide a full breakdown before you sign any agreements.
