Heath, Wealth & Wisdom with Nicole Bremner
Nicole Bremner is an investor, certified financial coach, nutritionist, author and mum-of-three. In 2009, having had a successful career in investment banking, like many women who take a ‘career break’ to have children, she found herself at a crossroads, not entirely sure what path to take next.
Combining her financial knowledge with her passion for good architecture and design, Nicole was able to build on her experience and expertise to develop a new career, which fit around her children, and spent the next decade building a multi-million property portfolio in London.
Newly relaunched as Health, Wealth & Wisdom, Nicole interviews some of the interesting people she has met while navigating her (sometimes turbulent) voyage through professional and family life. From charity founders and travelling investors to authors and young entrepreneurs, these are the real tales of real people finding their way in business. Join Nicole as she listens to their stories and the lessons they have learned along the way.

Heath, Wealth & Wisdom with Nicole Bremner
WISDOM: The future of estate agency, building for that future and becoming the first female MD of John D Wood & Co. with Polly Ogden Duffy #146
EP146: "It’s too early to say the market is turning but all signs are very positive. One week of good results are great. Two weeks is a coincidence, three weeks a trend. So we’re waiting to see what the next few weeks brings. Right now the market is thriving."
"If you’re going to sell typically people wait till spring. It’s pretty miserable this time of year. If you wait for spring there's more competition...so that could impact your price. There are buyers who are keen now who perhaps paused for thought last year and now they’re ready and you really can make the most of them. I think later in the year, as with every election year, you get closer and it's people start to think I’ll just wait till the election decision into early 2025."
There are many gems in this conversation with industry veteran and MD of John D Wood & Co., Polly Ogden Duffy. She talks about:
- Becoming the first female MD of John D Wood & Co. in the company's 150 year history. How good mentors helped and how she now helps others.
- The importance of taking the long view in your career which sometimes means taking a step back to go forward.
- The future of estate agency in a new fragmented market with key players emerging as brands rather than the traditional agency model.
- Today's market and why now is the time, in her opinion, to list your property and avoid the competition of spring.
