At OliverFinn we believe in Karma

Value for money

We will sell or let your property for a fixed fee and you’ll save money, a lot of money.

How much could you save?

Let us say you are selling your house for £750,000. A typical agent’s commission would be 2% or in English £15,000. OliverFinn’s price is £6,000.

That’s a £9000 saving - Maybe a new car or a holiday of a lifetime

If you are letting your house, let’s use £700 per week as an average. A typical agent’s commission would be 12% as a managed property or translated £4,368 per annum. OliverFinn’s price is just £2,500 fully managed per annum.

That’s a £1,868 per annum saving - Maybe a luxury mini break or a year’s health club membership

The service you want

We know you’re busy and we understand our opening hours have to suit you even if that means missing Eastenders or breakfast in bed

All our clients are given a unique log-in so you can see exactly what we are doing on your behalf. Viewing numbers, numbers of enquiries, phone calls made etc etc. No more smoke and mirrors and definitely no porkie pies

How can anyone provide good service without knowledge, experience and training? At OliverFinn, all of our team are fully trained and are recognised professionals within their departments. We are very happy to pay for their extensive external training to ensure that you receive the service you deserve

State of the art marketing

We live in a digital world of instant search and instantly available information. There is little or no place for ‘glass fish bowl’ offices and glossy magazines. Experts in the industry state that 96% of all buyers and tenants begin their search for property online so your agent needs to be at the top of the online game, are they? At OliverFinn, we have invested thousands of pounds in a state of the art presence that’s geared to the lifestyle of busy people

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)

Our website is written in a way to look good but not so the looks take more importance than the functionality. We want to get as much as we can from the search engines. We do everything we can to ensure that your property will be first to be seen, in as many places as possible

Property Websites (Portals)

As you would expect from a leading agent, we advertise on all of the major portals and in many cases optimise our presence by use of ‘Featured agent’ advertising. Even though we will charge you less, you don’t get less. No profit and loss considerations before your properties appearance in all of the right places

Marketing Preparation - Photography

Mario Testino doesn’t sell houses and likewise we don’t take photographs. We believe you only get one chance to make a great first impression and that’s why we instruct a professional photographer to take all of our photographs. You wont find our team taking photographs with camera’s on their mobile phones or cheap ‘Point & Shoot’ camera’s and that’s a promise

Marketing Preparation – Floor plan

At OliverFinn, every property features a professionally drawn floor plan, without exception. We do not try to save money at the cost of first class presentation of your property. Floor plans are imperative to allow your buyer or tenant to have a look around before they get to your property. No more wasting your time tidying up for someone who has no genuine interest

Marketing Preparation – PDF Brochure

We don’t understand why some agents feel that they don’t need to make the effort to make it easy to download a comprehensive details of your property. We provide photographs, floor plan, description, local area information, transport links, a detailed map and even some history of your neighbourhood so they are completely informed with just one click of a button

Marketing Preparation – Audio/Video Presentation

State of the art presentation that gives your buyer or tenant yet more information. At OliverFinn we like to provide innovative formats of presentation. No stone is left unturned to find the perfect person

Street Presence

We like to think that you can’t miss us. Our bold corporate colours, proactive local marketing and charity sponsorship ensure that we are always in mind.

We don’t just like to do just the obvious things to get noticed. Advertising lorries, bicycles, branded cars, branded fluorescent cycling jackets for local school children, footballs, brochures, ‘For Sale’ boards, local corporate print advertising, extensive advertising on local websites and event sponsorship are just a few of the campaigns we have run to get noticed

Information Delivery

When we receive your instruction, we do not simply click buttons and wait for the phone to ring. Our core principle is to be proactive. Lunch comes after phone calls. We insist on making sure that everyone that we know hears about your property. Phoning people comes first, followed by emailing property particulars and SMS messaging. We value every enquiry we receive and guarantee that everyone will receive a response.

Office Network

All agents with a network of offices claim that your property will be actively marketed in other offices. In our experience, this is not always the case. At OliverFinn we understand that although someone may wish to live in Notting Hill they actually move to Chiswick. That’s why by default we will automatically email, SMS and call all potential buyers and tenants from all areas with every property. Another example of how proactive we are on your behalf

With all that marketing, you may need a new doormat

Proven success

We have been in business for years and have become one of the leading truly independent agents in central London. We must be doing something right.
