An Apprentice's update Month 5

Well well, alot of exciting things have happened in the last few months. I'll give you an update with my progress and also I'll tell you why is now award winning!! 
I'll start with the National Estate and Letting Agents Awards 2011. This took place last month in London with Phil Spencer (from Ch4's Location Location), presenting the awards. Think Property were shortlisted in the Letting Agent of the year award for the South East and also the whole of the UK. Mark and Peter went to represent the Company and gave us regular email updates on what was going on. We were delighted to learn that we had been voted by you, our clients, the NUMBER 1 Letting Agent in Essex. We came a brilliant 2ND in the South East Category and a fantastic 6TH in the WHOLE of the UK. Great stuff! Next year we want to win the lot!! It's great to know that our clients think that we do a good job! So thank you to everyone that contributed!

It's been an extremely busy time in the office so far this quarter; our new oniline estate agency has launched and actually today has been a particularly productive day with the online site so keep a look out for us http://www.thinkonlineproperty.com/.

As I've mentioned previously, I have 8 exams to pass. 4 for Lettings and Property Management, and 4 for the Sale of Residential Property. Well this week I passed the 2nd of my exams which means I have 6 to go so things are moving along quite quickly, I'm hoping to take my next two exams before the summer so I'm going to bury my head in revision next month. That and training for an Ironman in July will keep me busy I think.

I'm a third of the way through my apprenticeship and it has gone like a bolt of lightening. I'm really enjoying working at Think and Mark, Emma and the rest of the team are very good people to learn from. The more I get involved with things, the more I want to do more and more and push my progression on! The next 3-4 months promise to be busy and I can't wait!

Happy Wednesday everyone and I'll blog again soon!

Thanks for reading

By the way, I solved my car situation and now have a tidy little KA to run round in. Great fun to drive and nippy too!
