Declan Hayes


Declan is a Director and Head of the Residential Property Department. He has led the Skipton office where he is based since he joined the predecessor firm of Charlesworth Wood & Brown back in 2006. Declan was part of the merger team that created AWB Charlesworth in 2010.

He advises clients across the full range of residential property work including sales, purchases, transfer of equity and remortgages, as well as new build and leasehold matters.

Declan has strong links with the local community too, having been brought up in Skipton. He returned to the area once he graduated from university.

He has over 25 years’ experience in the property world and counts numerous other local professionals such as agents, IFA’s, accountants and lawyers among his personal clients.  

Declan acts for the next generation of clients too – and for them, his no-nonsense approach and client-focused commitment are highly rated – and the cornerstones of his reputation.
