Ashley Puren
Having been involved with property for more than 20 years, it’s my passion! I love the idea that property can give you a passive income. I purchased my first property in my early 20’s at an auction & I’ve never looked back. The residual income I’ve received from property investment has given me the freedom to make lifestyle decisions which most people don’t get to choose.
Role:
- Business development, business growth, business management.
- Meeting with new & existing landlords
- Managing staff
- Managing company compliance within the Letting industry.

Ian Graham
I have managed a property development and renovations company in the North
East of Scotland for approximately 10 years. I then decided to relocate to Edinburgh
and into property management with Pure Property Management where I have
managed to transfer my skills and experience. I am a landlord myself so appreciate
the high expectations that come with managing properties for others and the duty of
care afforded towards tenants.

I am an administrative assistant for the company. I will be dealing with tenant enquiries, doing credit & reference checks, advertising properties and general admin duties.
I am also completing a Law degree at Edinburgh Napier University. I have grown up in multiple countries including Scotland, France and Spain which has given me the chance to learn different languages and experience a range of cultures and ways of life – the quiet French countryside and the hustle-bustle of Edinburgh city could not be more different! Owing to my upbringing and experience in hospitality from the age of seventeen, I have developed excellent communication skills and I feel confident in my ability to connect with people from all walks of life. These skills help me to navigate and adhere to the needs of all landlords and tenants at Pure Property Management.
