Welcome to Christchurch
Hassle-free Short-Let management that optimises your rental income.
Local holiday letting expertise, national know-how
Meet Darren Loose
My name is Darren Loose, Owner of BrightWater Estate Agency, and now Director of Pass The Keys New Forest & Christchurch®. Having started my sales and lettings business in the area of Ringwood and The New Forest with no previous experience in the market, I have successfully grown a large lettings client portfolio. I have always been attracted to anything to do with property so having a residential property business, a block management business and owning several investment properties of my own, moving into the holiday let market seemed to be the next step in my portfolio of property businesses.
