Best known for presenting the home-leg of Channel 4’s A Place in the Sun: Home or Away? experienced chartered surveyor Jonnie Irwin has property in his blood. With a dad as a developer and a degree in estate management, Jonnie gained many years experience working for property firm Christie & Co.

It was a natural step for Jonnie to want to share his breath of knowledge with a wider audience so after landing his dream job on A Place in the Sun: Home or Away? Jonnie has gone on to present other property shows such as To buy or not to buy and Escape to the Country whilst still finding time to run his property and business transfer firms.

During his career Jonnie has valued, acquired and sold all types of property both in the UK and overseas, however his main area of expertise lies in advising businesses such as shops, pubs and hotels on buying and selling and in 2011 fronted his very own show, Dream Lives for Sale, on Sky1 helping Brits looking to buy a business overseas.

More recently Jonnie has been presenting The Renovation Game on Channel 4 and will be back on your screens presenting a new series of A Place in the Sun in February 2012.
