Partner
John Yarnold
Married to his wife Barbara for 38 years and proud father to a family of grown-up sons, John enjoys a full and active life both professionally and personally. Away from the office, he can often be found on the golf course, where he relishes both the camaraderie of social golf and the challenge of competitive play.
In 2006, John was invited to join Hayman-Joyce, bringing with him a wealth of experience gained since beginning his estate agency career in 1989. Prior to joining the firm, he worked for two leading national estate agencies, successfully managing a number of offices across Worcestershire and the West Midlands. Today, with over 36 years in the property industry and more than 20 years at Hayman-Joyce, John remains as passionate about helping clients move home as he was at the very start of his career.
Based at the Moreton-in-Marsh office since 2008, John leads the residential sales team, combining extensive market knowledge with a genuine commitment to exceptional customer service. His approachable manner, professionalism and dedication have earned the trust of generations of clients, many of whom return time and again when buying or selling property.
John comments “One of the things I value most about Hayman-Joyce is the positive and supportive culture we have built over many years. We are fortunate to work with an incredible variety of properties and equally wonderful clients. Our team shares a commitment to delivering honest advice, outstanding service, and the very best results. There is no greater compliment than being recommended by previous clients or being asked to help them again with their next move.”
Despite more than three decades in the industry, John still finds immense satisfaction in handing over the keys on completion day. For him, every transaction represents far more than a property sale – it is a significant milestone in someone’s life. Helping clients navigate that journey and receiving their appreciation through referrals and five-star reviews continues to inspire him every day.
