Bio
As founder of Watts Property Consultants, Joanna has worked in Guernsey's commercial property market since June 2004. She previously graduated with a first class honors degree in Land Economy from Cambridge University in 1995, being awarded the Prize for Best Performance, the RICS Valuation Prize and a Final Year Scholarship. Following her graduation, she worked in the Investment Agency Department at DTZ in the West End, qualifying as a Chartered Surveyor in 2006.
Joanna's wide range of expertise includes investment agency and lettings, commercial property management, rent reviews, lease advisory and professional work. In addition, she is able to provide valuation, landlord and tenant, development and planning advice. She is also now regarded as Guernsey's most prolific agent, selling £100m of investment property in 2017 alone. She also sits on the RICS President's Dispute Resolution Panel as an Arbitrator and Independent Expert and acts as an Expert Witness, with particular expertise in the office market. She has a strong track record amongst industry professionals and is highly regarded for her thorough approach and her technical skill and ability.
In addition to her day to day work, Joanna is a member of the Chamber of Commerce’s Land Use and Planning Subgroup. Until 2018 she was also Secretary to the Guernsey Branch of the Institute of Directors, organising its highly successful Management Shadowing Scheme.
She also enjoys endurance sports. As well as representing Guernsey in the Commonwealth Games in 2014 for cycling, she holds course records for the prestigious Sark to Jersey Rowing Race, the Round Island Rowing Race and, until recently, the off island record for the 25 mile Cycling Time Trial.
