Alex obtained his degree in Estate Management at Greenwich University in 1989. He then went on to manage various corporate Estate Agents throughout Sussex gaining a solid grounding for the agency market.

He joined Dyer Commercial in 1999 leaving the residential market behind and has since worked at becoming this area's leading Commercial Agent. Having qualified as a Chartered Surveyor in 2002 his work in the Retail, Industrial and Office markets gives him an unrivalled local knowledge of this sector.

Alex specialises in the agency side of our business and is also fully qualified to prepare Commercial Energy Performance Certificates and so can offer the full range of agency services to our clients.

Leisure interests revolve mainly around his family which ‘takes up most of his time out of work’. He says ‘Don’t get me wrong, this is not a chore, I wouldn’t have it any other way’. His main ways of relaxing out of the office include a love of cooking and a passion for live music. The latter only in the audience and the former only with a good cook book and an empty stomach!
