Why choose an independent Letting agency?

With the property industry being flooded with choice, it is difficult to know how to choose an agency you can trust and be confident in their ability to not only provide a great service, but to also help your property portfolio to grow. It may be obvious to point out that there are not that many independent run agencies that specialise in lettings and management only, so we think this is something that makes us unique. Olive Leaf Lettings has been established with trust, referrals and word of mouth which is what we pride ourselves in.

Core Values

As an independent run business, we value trust, care and integrity. We do not compete with each other, nor have specific targets to beat which means the service you will get at Olive Leaf Lettings would be with great attention, respect and unlike anywhere else.

Community

During the pandemic, we have seen now more than ever before, the support for small local businesses which are key for local communities. In a world moving towards technology, the aspect of a face to face is just as important, after all, would you not want to meet the person that would be handling your property portfolio?

A friendly face to a name is always better than dealing with robot's so you can always have peace of mind if you needed anything.

Commitment

We are 100% committed to providing a high level of service. We will continually communicate regarding viewings, applications. We value feedback and are always looking for ways to improve our service.

Honesty

We will not over promise and under deliver, because we want to ensure you are happy with our service, not just another client to win business. We will be realistic with what rental income can be achieved and will be open and transparent because if we over inflate the price, your property will go stale on the market.

Compliance

We are proud members of The Property Ombudsman, Government approved Tenant Deposit Scheme (TDS), Client Money Protection Scheme (CMP), ICO Data Protection and have a Ring-fenced Client Money account, so your property and tenants are well protected.

Everyone is unique, and that is why smaller businesses like us, are able to provide a personalised service that is suited to your needs and achieve your property portfolio goals .

 

Meet The Team

I started out in social housing working for South Somerset Homes. I moved to Leicester in 2005 which is when I started working in the Lettings & Property Management industry. I moved to Bradgate Lettings in 2008 and stayed with them for almost 15 years. I have gone into partnership with Chris as we share the same values of treating our clients honestly and with respect. We are looking to build our relationships with our clients and work with them on a long term basis. Outside of work I mostly act as a taxi service for my two childrens various sporting activities and I occasionally get to play tennis myself at the local club.

Chris ( Christos) has an extensive background in the property market and has ventured into various businesses. He began investing in buy-to-let properties in 1999, while concurrently managing a successful family-owned fish and chip business. Over the years, he continued to expand his portfolio, acquiring both residential and commercial properties. In addition to growing his property portfolio, Chris successfully launched two more fish and chip businesses, ventured into used car sales and MOT services with a focus on exporting used cars, and established a smart repair centre. In recent years, he has shifted his focus towards developing new properties and renovating uninhabitable houses into habitable homes.

Outside of his professional life, Chris, who is of Greek Cypriot descent, places a strong emphasis on family values in his personal life and is a dedicated family man. He is also an avid fan of Leicester City Football Club. Chris and Andy Lockwood have known each other for over 15 years, as Andy was part of the Bradgate property letting agency that managed Chris's property portfolio before the company, Bradgate properties was sold. Given their shared values of honesty, trust, and a belief in supporting small independent businesses, it made perfect sense for Chris and Andy to open a letting agency together, combining their expertise from both sides of the property industry.
