Megan Cartwright

Megan Cartwright

Administation Assistant

Megan joined the LEA team in July 2024 as Administration Assistant but it feels like she has been here forever (in the best way!). Megan’s previous roles were customer facing so she is a people person and has a great way with all our clients. She is a great fit for our team and is always learning and evolving. Don’t be fooled by the Administration Assistant job title, Megan does much more and goes above and beyond so the phrase ‘watch this space’ is very apt! 

Have you had the pleasure of hearing this girl sing?… No? You are missing out. 

Megan has a wicked sense of humour which goes down a treat in our office.

Together, we work towards exceeding the needs of all our clients and I couldn’t be happier in my job, surrounded by the great team we have built together. I do believe we are the dream team!

Lucy Lea

Lucy Lea

Managing Director

Leaving university in 2003 and struggling to find suitable accommodation in which to live whilst starting my first post university job, made me realise the need for high end HMOs in Ipswich, and with the support of my family, one year later LEA Property Solutions was born. I am extremely passionate about what I do and pride myself on working to my full potential.

Owning my own property and having lived in HMOs in the past means that I feel I have the experience to benefit both tenants and landlords and will always work constructively to exceed the needs of both landlords and tenants. The market has changed greatly in the past 20 years and the business has grown to keep up with those needs. I feel very blessed to have built such a fantastic and loyal team around me and look forward to the future. Property has always been and continues to be a passion of mine so who knows what the future holds for LEA Property Solutions in terms of expansion! “
