Tom, who will be responsible for property sales throughout Knutsford and East Cheshire whilst also taking on a role as head of office, is familiar with the region’s housing market having worked for nine years as head of Cheshire lettings at Savills. Prior to this, Tom spent seven years in London, where he worked as part of Savills’ specialist waterfront team.

Commenting on his new position, Tom says: “It is a real privilege to lead our exceptional and well-established team in Knutsford. After working alongside the team since moving back to the North West in 2015, I am looking forward to further building on our offering in both the core and prime property markets. We have a very strong multi-discipline team covering the North West and I’m excited to have an opportunity to shape this further with the support of the significant wealth of expertise we have across a diverse range of departments.”

Cameron Luckas originally joined Savills in January 2024 in a regional business development role in Manchester before stepping into his new position in which he will oversee lettings activity across the Chester, Knutsford and Wilmslow offices. Prior to joining Savills, he held the position of sales manager and subsequently branch manager for an independent sales and lettings agency in Cheshire.

The Savills Cheshire residential lettings department was established by Tom in 2015. Working closely with its specialist lettings, new homes and residential sales teams in across Cheshire and Manchester, Savills delivers a seamless service to landlords and tenants.

Cameron comments: “I am very pleased to head up our lettings department across Cheshire, where we have established a well-performing business over the last nine years. I look forward to continuing to build our presence, using my strong local knowledge and network of clients to complement the existing – and longstanding – team. Furthermore, I am excited to be working alongside our market leading Sports & Entertainment team, leveraging our exclusive client list across our international network”.

According to the latest research from Savills, house prices in the North West are expected to see the strongest acceleration in growth with an anticipated rise of 29.4% in the five years to 2029, including 5% this year. This compares to a national average of 23.4% over the next five years, and 17.1% in London.

Cameron Ewer, head of Savills’ residential business in the North West and West Midlands, comments: “We are incredibly pleased to be able to provide our clients with consistency in the dynamic duo of Tom and Cameron, who already know the business and the area incredibly well. Their combined wealth of experience and local knowledge is a tremendous asset to us and our clients in Knutsford, in what we anticipate will be a very positive year ahead.”
