Kaisha Allen

Property Manager

Kaisha has been immersed in the world of lettings and property management since the age of 17—so when it comes to keeping tenancies on track, she’s got it down to a fine art. As Property Manager, she’s the first port of call for tenants from the moment an offer is accepted until the day they hand back the keys (and sometimes even after that).

Known for her calm under pressure and no-nonsense efficiency, Kaisha keeps communication clear, expectations realistic, and situations under control—even when the boiler isn’t. She’s all about making sure tenants feel looked after and landlords feel confident that Prosperity is the way forward.

Kaisha thrives on the fast pace of property management and believes communication is key—whether she’s coordinating with contractors or keeping tenants in the loop. Outside of work, you’ll likely find her in the kitchen, turning up the heat with her love for cooking—proof that great things happen when you follow the recipe and your instincts.
