Meet the McBeath Property team:

A Chartered Surveyor who graduated in 1988, Andrew has worked for a range of companies in London, Leeds, York and Guernsey! Having become a Director at international property consultants Savills, and a Partner at northern hotshots Hunters Commercial, Andrew decided to take on the challenge of establishing his own business MPC based in York. He acquired Paul Beanlands Estate Agents business in Malton in May 2006. Andrew has a hands on role in all aspects of the business and oversees the commercial and bank valuation instructions.

Fiona McBeath Dip HE, Director
Fiona who comes from a well known local family, graduated in 1986 and worked for a number of years in the wine trade including a managerial role at Castle Howard. In 1993 she left the employment sector to concentrate on raising their 4 children but has latterly become increasingly involved in the running of the businesses.

Sarah Knaggs ANAEA, Valuer
Lives locally with family.
Sarah joined the firm in 2000 having established herself as a bright and efficient valuer. Sarah combines her 'day job' with a role as a retained firefighter at the local station. She is one of only a few female firefighters trained to drive fire engines.

Paul Beanland FRICS, Consultant
Married with 2 children, lives locally.
Paul set up the firm in 1993 with 35 years experience already under his belt. The business grew to become one of the leading estate agents in Malton and Ryedale and the leading commercial and development advisor in the area. Having sold the business to Andrew McBeath, Paul is now able to spend more time on his personal interests but is still actively involved as a Consultant in all aspects of the business but has particular skills in planning, development consultancy and survey work.
Linda Jefferson - Receptionist and Negotiator / Administrator
Linda has been with the firm since June 2003 having previously worked in a bank (we have forgiven her). She is particularly skilled in IT which she sometimes regrets as invariably she has to sort out the 'gremlins'!. Clients like Linda's calm efficiency.
Christine Hutchinson - Receptionist and Negotiator
More commonly known as Granny Spice, Christine has been with the firm for 5 years. She has an uncanny knack of knowing what a customer wants before they do. Classic 'pot calling the kettle black moment' - "That woman can talk can't she"!. Clients like Christine's ideas and boundless enthusiasm.
Judith Wood - Secretary and Administrator
Judith has been with the firm since March 2003 and is one of the best people to take advice from as she's been there and done it; buy to lets, renovations etc. Most likely to say "Haven't you got a home to go to?" Judith is also the master of the withering look.
