In this episode of Property Particulars, Doug is joined by Nick Karamanlis from Moveli, an estate agent with one of the most unexpected routes into the industry you’ll ever hear.

Nick shares his remarkable journey from investment banking to estate agency (with a surprising nudge from a Reiki session), how he built his career from a £10k starting salary in East London, and why the brokerage model is the perfect fit for him today.

Doug and Nick dive into:

• How Nick’s unconventional beginning shaped his people-first approach
• What makes the ideal seller and the type he won’t hesitate to walk away from
• Why communication is the defining trait of a good lawyer (and a good agent)
• His personal experiences buying and selling, including the paranoia every seller feels
• How social media has transformed estate agency, and the pressures behind it
• Collaboration over competition: working with agents, buyers, and solicitors to get deals done

Nick’s humour, passion, and honesty shine throughout as he shares stories from Hackney to Essex, selling homes via Instagram, and even his favourite London pub spots.

A lively, refreshing, and insightful conversation for anyone in the property world, or anyone about to buy or sell.
