Andrew has spent his entire career in property. He is now, undoubtedly, one of the most respected and well known estate agents and auctioneers in the region. Practising mainly in the residential market through changing economic times he has also witnessed the phenomenal expansion and development of Bristol into one of the UK’s most desirable and vibrant cities. His knowledge, therefore, of all the factors influencing the west country market is invaluable to Hollis Morgan, now well established as one of the fastest growing estate agencies and the region’s largest auctioneers.
Throughout his career he has been in huge demand as a charity auctioneer bringing humour and fund raising skills to a plethora of social events. These events have taken him from “Highgrove” to The British Embassy in Rome and a myriad of places in between raising thousands of pounds. For this extraordinary achievement he was awarded the MBE in The Queen’s Birthday Honours in 2013.
Apart from the business life of Bristol he has also enjoyed being involved in many charities and served in different capacities on many committees. He also enjoys the rich cultural life offered in the city.
