An excellent knowledge of the local area, a good reputation as a successful Estate Agent and good relationships with the business and private communities, have ensured the success of Jackie Oliver & Co. as a major player in the residential sales and letting sectors of the Northamptonshire property market.

We believe that it is essential to be able to offer a range of services, including Valuations, Residential Sales, Residential Lettings, and Independent Mortgage Services. In addition we have a Consultant Surveyor and Commercial Consultant available to assist you, as required.
