This experience instilled in him a strong sense of discipline and leadership. Following his military service, Howard embarked on a 45-year career in the global fashion industry, working in both corporate settings and running his own businesses.

He is highly experienced at recommending to vendors the best way to prepare their homes before coming to the market and offers sound advice on how to present both the exterior and interior of the property. This personalised approach ensures that each property he represents is presented in its best possible light, maximising its appeal to potential buyers.
