estate agents

Since opening the doors to our Uckfield office in the Summer of 2017 without a single property in the window, Peter Oliver Homes has grown from strength to strength to proudly take their place as market leaders in the local area. Due to increasing demand, we then opened our second office in Crowborough in 2022.

Directors Owen and Nick have almost 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”.

The way we buy and sell our homes is changing. But many 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 way in which a property is marketed is essential to the end result. It’s not just about agreeing a sale but ensuring that we have done all we possibly can to achieve the best possible price for our sellers. This is where we know we can make a big difference. But don’t just take our word for it – our methods have proven results! In the past year, we are delighted to have agreed sales on more than twice as many properties as any of our competitors in the TN22 postcode area!
