Meet the team – Sarah Stewart – Property Sales Administrator

Sarah Stewart, MARLA Cert CIH Level 3 – Property Sales Administrator Describe your role in one sentence at Cairn? I support both the Lettings and Sales teams with various administrative tasks. Each day is unique, bringing different challenges and responsibilities. What’s the best thing about working at Cairn? One of the best aspects of working for Cairn is the team’s support, warmth, and friendliness. What is your proudest business achievement/moment? My proudest business achievements must be successfully obtaining both my ARLA and Letwell qualifications. What is the best piece of business advice you have been given? A former manager advised me to prioritise building relationships with my clients rather than just focusing on the figures. Give us an interesting fact about yourself? I am a published author, and I aspire to publish more of my work in the future. What advice would you give your 18-year-old self? Don’t be afraid to start over. Life will present many challenges, but you are more resilient than you realise. You don’t need to have everything figured out in your teens or early twenties, be gentle with yourself. It will all work out in the end! Who are your heroes inside or outside of business? My husband, he has experienced significant loss in his life, yet he continues to face each day with optimism and a smile. He truly is one of a kind! What qualities do you most admire in others? The qualities I admire in others are honesty, empathy, humility, and dependability. We live in a competitive world, and these traits can be hard to find in people. So, when you do encounter them, it’s a wonderful thing. How do you unwind out of work? I enjoy reading, writing, watching TV and films, cooking, listening to music, travelling, attending gigs, and walking my cockapoo, Ollie, in the park. Favourite book and film? I am a huge fan of Anne Rice, and “The Vampire Chronicles” is my favourite book series, though it’s tough to choose just one book as my favourite. In terms of films, my top choice is “Interview with the Vampire,” but I also want to give a special mention to “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy and any old classic horror film. Where is your favourite place in Scotland? I’m originally from Ireland, but I have come to call Scotland my home over the last few years. I have been fortunate to travel extensively throughout the country. One of my favourite places is Kirkwall in Orkney, as well as Orkney as a whole. There are so many incredible sights to see, such as Skara Brae and the Standing Stones of Stenness.

Meet the team – Claire Vine – Property Manager

Claire Vine – Property Manager Describe your role in one sentence at Cairn? Managing the standard of the flats and tenancy, while supporting and building relationships with the landlords and tenants. What’s the best thing about working at Cairn? The team are genuinely supportive. What is your proudest business achievement/moment? Being part of a team who kept a property business going through the covid pandemic and lockdowns when a huge percentage of tenants left overnight. What is the best piece of business advice you have been given? Taking the time to meet people face-to-face (tenants, landlords or neighbours) goes a long way. Give us an interesting fact about yourself? I qualified in massage therapy but had to give it up when I developed shoulder issues. What advice would you give your 18-year-old self? Take chances. If it doesn’t work out, you’ll survive. Who are your heroes inside or outside of business? My Mum (2-time Breast Cancer survivor). What qualities do you most admire in others? Honesty, loyalty and a good sense of humour. How do you unwind out of work? Reading, watching movies/TV shows, spending time with friends. Favourite book and film? Books, I’d say the Terry Pratchett Discworld Series (it’s hard to pick a favourite), and Movies is a tough one, probably the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Where is your favourite place in Scotland? Glasgow. It’s home.
