About this agent
Since opening the doors to our Uckfield office in the summer of 2017—with not a single property in the window—Peter Oliver Homes has gone from strength to strength, proudly establishing itself as the market leader across the local area. Driven by increasing demand, we expanded into Crowborough in 2022, and in 2025, we were proud to open our newest branch in Heathfield. Directors Owen and Nick have over four decades of estate agency experience between them, most of which was gained working for large corporate chains. The idea for Peter Oliver Homes came from the desire to offer clients the same modern and innovative marketing but with a more personal bespoke service and a focus on customer satisfaction rather than simply the bottom line. Nick explains: “We’d both worked successfully in the area for a long time before starting our own business but had grown tired of the corporate focus on money over service. We saw an opportunity to draw on all of our experience and take the elements that we know work for our clients, whilst also cutting out all of the unnecessary parts to offer the most effective marketing package we possibly can”.
