A small Bristol team that picks up the phone.

We’re a student, professional, and HMO letting agent covering Bristol and Bath. We look after landlords’ homes as if they were our own, and make renting simple for the people who live in them.

How Xeno started

Sam and Alex met while working together at another Bristol letting agency. Seeing how the industry worked from the inside, they shared the same thought: landlords and tenants deserved better, and they wanted to build an agency that ran to a genuinely market-leading standard.

They spent the next few years gaining experience across lettings, maintenance and property management. After the pandemic, they decided it was time. They worked multiple jobs to get Xeno off the ground, then took the jump to run it full-time.

Today Xeno looks after student houses, HMOs and professional lets across Bristol and Bath, with a small team that knows every property and picks up the phone.

Meet the team

SH

Sam Hewitt

Director

Sam co-founded Xeno to run lettings the way he always thought they should be done. He leads our renovations, finds investment properties for landlords and keeps an eye on every let and repair. A Bristol City fan who still plays football, with more enthusiasm than skill.

Alex Parsons

Director

Alex co-founded Xeno and is the reason landlords and tenants stay with us. He looks after customer care, keeps the admin, management and lettings running smoothly, and isn't afraid to roll his sleeves up on a repair. An avid cricketer, Spurs fan and family man.

FY

Finley Young

Property Manager

Fin's the person his landlords and tenants know by name. He runs his own set of managed and let-only houses, gets them relet for the next year and keeps on top of repairs so small jobs stay small. Away from work he plays basketball, hits the gym and spends his downtime gaming.

CW

Cameron Williams

Property Manager

Cam is the steady hand behind his portfolio of managed and let-only homes, from finding the next group of tenants to getting the right contractor through the door. A big Chelsea fan who plays football himself, and if Heart FM is on, you'll hear him singing along.
