Residential Lettings and Management Team
Mike is our Director of Property Management. He was born and raised in Guernsey with a local family history dating back a number of generations. Mike is married to his wife, Lisa, and they have two young children.
Mike’s experience in the property/building industry dates back over 20 years when he started out as an apprentice electrician with Guernsey Electricity. Following completion of his apprenticeship he moved into an administrative role quoting and designing electrical installations and providing tariff and consumption advice to consumers.
After nine years with Guernsey Electricity, he was offered a position as department manager within one of the islands leading mechanical and electrical contractors where he remained until joining Lovells in 2001, as an Assistant Property Manager.
Tony is one of our Property Managers. He first joined us during 2007/2008 and experienced both the residential and commercial sectors. Following time away living in Austria and Holland, Tony rejoined the team in 2010 in the role of a Commercial Property Manager, alongside and assisting Mike Collins.
Tony was educated at Haute Capelles and The Grammar School. After his ‘O’ levels, Tony spent 14 years in the Finance Industry. Taking 6 months off to spend the winter of ‘98 in Canada, Tony became a snowboarding instructor and enjoyed 8 seasons of instructing, in Austria, over the next 10 years. In his free time, Tony likes to keep fit all year round whether running, going to the gym or playing softball and volleyball.
Chelsea joined Lovells in April 2000 as a receptionist in the Sales team and has gradually, over her 11 plus years employment, gained valuable experience moving from the Residential Sales division to become a Secretary/Receptionist of the Commercial team and today she is our Lettings Manager. She also looks after a portion of the Property Management Portfolio so has good knowledge in most areas of the business.
Having previously worked in Finance and Trust, she feels this is a more challenging and active position where her day can be anything from preparing a Lease to putting a new roof on a property!
Knowing how stressful it can be for people trying to find a property as well as Landlords trying to find good tenants, Chelsea can certainly put all at ease ensuring that the lettings process goes as smoothly as possible.
Sally has worked in estate agency for almost seven years and joined Lovells in April 2009 as Secretarial and Administration Support for the Residential Management and Lettings team.
Having previously worked in the finance industry for many years as Personnel and Office Manager, Sally has experience of looking after both property and people! Her grandfather was a builder and thinks she gets her passion for properties from him. Sally enjoys meeting people and assisting them in their search for a home.
Although Sally has worked abroad in Austria and South Africa, she loves Guernsey but still enjoys travelling. More recently, Sally has been bitten by the cruise bug and she is always planning the next trip with her husband!
In October 1998 Chantal took up a two week temporary placement as a Secretary for the Property Management and Commercial Department at Lovells. 13 years later she is still here!
During her time at Lovells Chantal has worked in both the Lettings and Sales Departments and has therefore gained a broad knowledge of all property matters.
Chantal has now turned full circle and since October 2009 has been working back in the Management Department as a Residential Property Manager but she also assists the Lettings Manager as and when required.
Prior to joining Lovells Chantal worked in the finance industry for a number of years although property has always been in her blood as she comes from a family of building contractors and has also renovated a couple of her own properties in the past.

Prior to joining Lovells, Mandy worked in numerous property-related businesses including architects/surveyors, developers, builder’s merchants and estate agents. She joined Lovells in 2007 initially as an Open Market Negotiator but due to the need to bolster our management capabilities, she recently moved upstairs into Property Management.
She was born and bred in Guernsey and educated at The Grammar School for Girls and College of Further Education. During the weekends in the summer months, you can find Mandy serving specialised “Mr. Softees” in her ice-cream van down at Havelet Bay!
Maureen is our Senior Secretary and started her secretarial career in the finance industry, moving after a number of years to the Environment Department, then known as the IDC for a short spell, before moving to Lovells where she has been for the last 25 years.
