About this agent
The way we buy and sell our homes is changing. But many estate agents are not. Some are stuck in their old methods of working; others have embraced technology, but often more for the benefit of their business than the people they serve. The idea for Peter Oliver came from the desire of directors Owen and Nick to offer clients the very best of both worlds – great modern marketing with bespoke personal service, and a focus on customer satisfaction rather than simply the bottom line. Having managed highly successful Sussex offices within a large estate agency chain, Owen and Nick saw an opportunity to offer a different service for home buyers and sellers. Owen explains: “We saw that what we were doing really worked but we grew tired of the corporate focus on money over service. We saw a real gap in the market to launch a fresh new estate agency that could mix modern marketing with traditional values. “We are all about building professional relationships and giving the very best personal service to our customers. At Peter Oliver, we want people to come back and use us time and time again, and recommend us to their friends, neighbours and families.” And Nick adds: “We’ve worked in the Uckfield and Crowborough areas for many years and been market leaders not only in the number of homes we’ve sold but also in achieving the best possible prices for our clients. “That’s exactly what we intend to carry on doing at Peter Oliver, but as well as bringing all the elements we know work for our customers, we’re cutting all the unnecessary parts to offer the most effective marketing package in the area.”
