Oliver James has a major presence in the Oxfordshire property market. I bought my first property through them. Also, when I rented out the property, they found the tenants for me. Overall, I have been very happy with their service. They are highly knowledgeable about the local property market. They are professional and the staff in the Kidlington office are extremely friendly and helpful.

What agent could do to change your mind?
1. Make sure i get my deposit money back - since i have given 2 months of written notice. 2. Establish a very good communication channel between the landlord and the tenant. I was asked by the landlord to speak to Oliver James, and Oliver James replied - please speak to the landlord since i am not aware of the details !!. 3. Return the money taken for marketing charges back to me (307 pounds), since you could not find the a new tennat in 2 months time.Attached Filesnbsp;

Dananjay was our tenant and left the flat in a very bad way!! Children had scribbled on the walls and the taps were destroyed by using what must have been toilet cleaner. The dining table had been scribbled on and had to be sanded & re varnished. The worst tenant ever very very demanding and left the place in a state. The deposit never covered the loss of rent or the damage!!!! So how can he bad mouth a good agent. ...
