News from Oliver & Akers Estate Agents

Below is our latest news

Residential Sales

Moving home is not complicated, but can be a daunting prospect. We recognise that your home/property is probably the largest single investment you will ever make. Buying and selling property is a very people-oriented business and good communications are essential for a successful move. We use the most modern and up to date ways of concluding a sale, such as walk through tours, social media and WhatsApp.

Lettings & Property Management

With so much legislative change in the lettings sector, it’s imperative that you use a professional competent agent to make sure you are compliant with safety and legal legislation. We tailor make our management to suit all individual Landlords needs.

Quality Marketing

At Oliver & Akers we embrace change. Combining a ‘traditional’ approach with modern technology and ‘new’ ideas when it comes to marketing. Drone photography is available for all properties and can really enhance the consumers view. ‘Walk-through’ video tours are also available giving a real insight to the property at the touch of a button.

Areas Covered

Since Oliver & Akers were founded in 2014 we have successfully helped people move in over 25 different areas. We have illustrated the importance of giving the right service and utilising the right marketing approach.
