Nicholas Dutton, Director

As a property investment specialist with a strong finance background, including personal and commercial banking. Nicholas has previously managed a portfolio of property clients with a turnover up to £25 million.
“As an aspiring entrepreneur investing in property myself, I enjoy working with like- minded, driven individuals. I am an active member of Progressive Property Network, Property Investors Network, Property Hub, and UK Property Network, which means I can relate to my clients and continuously learning a variety of strategies.
I am a confident, self-driven and organised individual with good morals and dreams for my future.
I previously worked with Lloyds Bank for 5 years, which was an invaluable experience looking after property clients and property lending, as well as giving me a sound base for working in a strict compliance background. As Lloyds prides itself on customer service, I know how to interact and adapt to different clients and their needs.”
On a personal level, Nicholas is the host of the Entrepreneur Academy podcast and Engaging Networking alongside hobbies such as Fishing and Golf.

“I previously worked as an Area Director for Lloyds Bank and as a Senior Lending Manager for Norwich & Peterborough; this experience has given me an in-depth knowledge of the financial sector and the ability to package lending that money can’t buy.”
Outside of work, Colin is a keen golfer and he enjoys travelling and training at the gym.
