Luke Tait

Head of New Business & Lead Property Manager

Luke joined Chapmans in 2020. Starting as a Trainee Property Manager, he has risen to become our Head of New Business & Lead Property Manager.

Luke moved to Edinburgh in 2011 to study law at The University of Edinburgh. He soon graduated with first class honours and a diploma in professional legal practice. Luke then worked as a solicitor at a leading global law firm for several years, specialising in property finance.

Following the outbreak of the COVID-19 Pandemic, Luke decided to alter his career path. The legal sector’s loss was Chapmans’ gain.

Luke applies the skills and knowledge gained throughout his property career to provide exceptional insight. He is well-versed in the challenges faced by owners looking to enter the rental market and how to overcome these. He strives to give pragmatic, clear and invaluable advice in every situation and is well-placed to guide our landlords (new and existing) through their lettings journey.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE:

  • Taking overall responsibility for the smooth running of his portfolio and ensuring all aspects of the job are complete and up-to-date
  • With his support team, he is fully involved in preparing new properties for let – ensuring smooth check-ins and check-outs
  • Preparing tenants for property inspections and writing reports for landlords
  • Ensuring safety certificates and annual maintenance checks are up to date

With a commitment to providing a great service and building good, solid client relationships being key to Luke – he is all about meeting and exceeding high standards. His time management and organisational skills are exemplary.

On a personal note…

My Favourite Place in Edinburgh: The city centre. I live near Lothian Road and love living in the heart of the city.

Favourite Holiday: Belfast. Had a brilliant weekend away across the water with my better half. Soaked in the sights, soaked in the history and soaked in the craft beer. Would definitely go back!

Favourite Food: A supersize extra-hot steak strips burrito from Bonnie Burrito.

Favourite Film: Edge of Tomorrow. Comedy, romance, war, drama and time-travelling aliens – this movie has it all!

Favourite things to do in my spare time: Practice my guitar, hike to the summits of Munros and play 5-a-side football.

Not only is Luke an avid snowboarder and hiker, he has also traversed the famous Peruvian Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, trekked for three days along a secluded stretch of the Great Wall of China and climbed Mount Kilimanjaro for charity!
