HUMBERTS, one of the leading firms of Chartered Surveyors, Estate Agents and Valuers in Worcestershire has recently appointed two new members of staff.

George Pickard is to join the agency's country homes division, while Alan Metcalf will assist with the Worcester office's growing city centre sales. George's late father was a senior partner in a property practice and it seemed only natural that he should follow in his footsteps.

Thirty-six-year-old Alan Metcalf has 13 years estate agency experience to his credit and will be using his knowledge to help advise potential purchases and sellers when it comes to marketing their homes in the city.
