Sarah is one of the town’s most experienced agents having commenced her career in Falmouth in 1988, after attending Truro County Girls Grammar School. After 17 consecutive years with a local independent, Sarah took a sabbatical to her beloved belle France where she immersed herself in the French lifestyle. A return to estate agency in Falmouth in 2006 led to her running an office in the town, a role she enjoyed until 2013, at which point she joined Laskowski & Company. Among her many fortes, Sarah is the epitome of the true ‘people person’ and leaves no stone unturned to ensure a successful outcome to even the most complex of transactions.

Rory is another local; schooling in Truro led to a devotion to squash and at one stage, Rory was county champion. He returned after graduating from the University of Leeds. He still plays squash at a very high level and does provide coaching on a selective basis. His career in estate agency commenced in Truro in 2014, 3 years after which he joined Laskowski & Company. Rory has developed a deep understanding of the complexities of negotiations and provides a level of trust and empathy which all buyers and sellers find immensely reassuring. However, his cool, calm and collected approach in the ‘hothouse’ of the sales office, belies the competitive edge of a former county champion.
