    Mark Crampton-Smith - Director
    Tea boy and occasional odd job person ... Trouble shooter and media star; I have been with College and County since the beginning and have been fortunate enough to surround myself with a strong staff team.

    I am ambitious and hope to be part of a business that continues to grow at 20% per annum whilst maintaining and improving services to clients and tenants alike. Through our adherence to ethical letting, we have been able to attract some excellent landlords who continue to invest in their portfolio to keep improving the standard of property available to let.

    I enjoy game fishing and working my dog. I am hoping to be able to do rather more of both in the next few years!

    David Gilson - Lettings Director
    In 2007 I was studying a RICS degree at Oxford Brookes University specialising in sustainable development and became a College and County tenant. I have always had a real interest in properties and in particular, property investment. Right from the start I could see what a great culture and ethos Mark had created with College and County and in late 2007, I started my journey with C&C and became a viewing agent working part time around my studies. Some 10+ years on I am now Lettings Director and have been proud to see the company grow from strength to strength.

    My goal every day is to ensure that whilst we stay at the cutting edge of the market with new technologies and grow as an agency and team the same care and personal approach that Mark gave when I started is always taken with every Landlord and Tenant to ensure what makes College and County great always remains.

    I have recently joined College and County with three years' experience as a Property Manager and one year in Property Sales within Thame and the surrounding area. Throughout my career within the property market I have looked for new challenges to expand my experience, while building and maintaining strong working relationships with landlords, tenants and contractors.

    Chris Mackey - Senior Property Manager
    Currently living in Buckinghamshire, I have been in the property industry for over 8 years. Initially I fell into the industry when I returned from 2 years of travelling but soon found it to be an industry that was fast paced, ever changing and challenging; all of which suited me perfectly and matched my personal life. I aim to bring a high level of customer service and knowledge of the industry to all of the customers that I come into contact with.

    The team at College and County are all well versed, experts on the market in Oxford which is so unique to any other markets in the country that we are able to provide such a good opportunity to our landlords and tenants alike.

    My spare time is spent juggling family life with my wife and 2 young girls and playing football as much as I can and supporting my beloved Crystal Palace.

    Emma Ferguson - Accounts Assistant
    After working in Business Travel for many years, I decided to have a complete career change so decided to fly high with College and County in the Accounts department. I have been here just over a year and every day I am learning more and more about the lettings industry which I really enjoy. The role is very different and varied and I enjoy every aspect of the job.

    I have a 6 year old son who keeps me busy (if only I could play football). As a family we follow Liverpool football club.

    • Landlord Testimonial

      it couldn't have been easier
      College and County are a delight to work with. I have just rented out my apartment in Thame and it couldn't have been easier. Always pleasant to speak to on the phone or in person, both Catherine and Sam were fabulous. The whole process was pain free and their communication with me spot on. My apartment was only empty for one week between tenancies which is just what you want as a landlord. Thank you! :O)

      everything was managed perfectly well
      My experience with College and County has been amazing. We have been in a property managed by them for close to two years, and during this time they have ensured that everything was managed perfectly well. They were always available whenever we had a need for any support.
