Bellway has appointed a new sales advisor to help people find a new home at one of Europe’s biggest residential projects. The housebuilder has brought Melania Rus onto the team at Barking Riverside, where Bellway London Partnerships is one of the developers helping to deliver more than 10,000 new homes.
Melania, from Essex, will be based at the sales office at Fielders Quarter where Bellway is currently building 371 new homes. Melanie has joined Bellway from a sales position at JLL – the real estate services giant and will now be an advisor.
“At JLL my job was selling new homes but we were acting as agents for another company so there was always the extra process of having to check before any deals could be signed off,” said Melania. “Here at Bellway, I have so much more autonomy and can make decisions myself and use my experience and knowledge to help speed the sales process up.
“This demonstrates to the buyer that we at Bellway can be flexible and do what we can to help find the best opportunity with each customer individually. I am very happy to have been given this job at Bellway as they have a reputation in the industry of being a company that really puts their customers first.”
Melania said she had worked as an estate agent for three years before her two-year stint at JLL.
“I am a real people person,” she said. “I love helping buyers achieve their dream of owning their own home and that gives me real job satisfaction. There is no better feeling than handing the keys over to people as they move into their new home. The joy on their faces is always wonderful to see.
“Fielders Quarter in Barking Riverside is a fabulous new development which is proving very popular with all kinds of buyers. We are building a mix of apartments and townhouses at Fielders Quarter which means that we have first-time buyers, young professionals and growing families wanting to buy here.
“The development is set to be one of the top places to live in the capital. There will be a new Overground station and the Thames Clipper is set to launch a service from the site to provide easy access to central London. This means that buying a property at Barking Riverside will not only give you a fabulous new home but will represent a sound investment.”
Amie Triphook-Cole, Head of Sales at Bellway London Partnerships, said: “We are delighted to be able to welcome Melania to the company. She brings years of experience in the sales market and her professionalism is already marking her out as a great addition to the team.
“These are very exciting times for us at Bellway London Partnerships as we play a leading role in the ambitious scheme which will see 10,800 new homes delivered to the area on the former Barking Power Station site in East London.”
There is currently a choice one and two-bedroom apartments available to reserve at Fielders Quarter, with prices starting at £261,445.
