Our Story
Life by Ringley was built with love and passion by Sam Hay. Sam says, “Manchester property is a fascinating and growing sector to be involved in, and I enjoy every single minute. My business was built with a client comes first mentality, and we are here to assist tenants, landlords, home sellers, and developers with their journey. Our processes, well-trained staff, and willingness to help are what truly makes us stand out. We also immerse ourselves in property technology and anything that we can find out about to make the clients time working with us a much better experience.”
Sam Hay joined the Ringley Group in 2018 as an equity partner and Co-Founder of Life By Ringley to further our Build to Rent offering to developers and institutions throughout the northern powerhouse and beyond.

Having been actively managing Build to Rent with live sites since 2014, Sam brings her considerable expertise in this sector together with a passion for outstanding customer service that will underwrite Ringley's growth in this rapidly growing sector, as well as a talent for employing and developing exceptional staff.

I’m Poppy, and my role at Life by Ringley is to be the second in command to Sam and be by her side and assist with everything that she has on her plate on a daily basis when it comes to the mechanics of running the business.
If our clients want to speak to a knowledgeable team member who has been with the team for many years and has experience with pretty much every role here, then I’m your girl. I am the main point of contact for our clients beside Sam and can help you with any issues you need resolving even if it is just some advice and guidance. While Sam is busy making sure the business comes in I’m here to ensure that it runs like clockwork and our clients are happy.
I started working at Life by Ringley in 2013, and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time so far within the business. I am lucky to work with some Inspiring and driven individuals and in a great environment.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, including my three godchildren. I also love to travel and see new places!
