"Their knowledge and hard work is so evident"
We decided to renovate our rental property which Oakheart manages for us. Their advice with this was invaluable from the practical elements to the aesthetics. Literally an hour after the property renovation was completed Oakheart had a tenant for us and they were moved in 3 days later. We were so impressed with how hard and invested the lettings team worked to achieve this with such short notice and so smoothly too. Happy tenant = Happy Landlord. Thank you
