About Me
Oliver has spent the majority of his working life in Cumbria and Lancashire and has been qualified as a Rural Practice Chartered Surveyor for 30 years. He is also a Fellow of the Central Association of Agricultural Valuers. Whilst specialising in the valuation of all types of property, Oliver also acts for individual private clients, landowners as well as corporate bodies, and is able to advise on a wide range of property and professional issues.
Oliver takes the greatest pleasure from helping clients through difficult issues, resulting with them being in a far better position, both personally and property-wise than they were at the start.
Having worked for several national and regional firms, he joined the Cumbria team in early 2026. He has close ties to the area, continuing to live in a village a few miles from the office, having moved there shortly after qualifying.
