Our Team

Oliver Huggins

Partner

Oliver is a local lad, born in Peterborough and raised in a small village called Woodwalton, situated just outside of Huntingdon. After a period of time studying in Newcastle, Oliver returned to the area where a passion for Estate Agency was born working for a local Independent Estate Agent in several different branches across the area.

Oliver heads up our residential sales team, dealing with market appraisals as well as the disposal of residential development land and initial planning advice.

During the Summer Oliver enjoys playing cricket and has represented local teams including Godmanchester, St Ives and Huntingdonshire County, although his stories of success sometime vary from what the actual statistics say!

James Hodgson

Partner

Although born in London James moved with his family to Cambridgeshire aged 5 and this is where the family has been based ever since. After completing his A-levels James moved on to gain a degree from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne.

James went on to work for a local independent property management company in Huntingdon where he spent time in the lettings and property management departments. James heads up the letting side of the business dealing with all aspects for Landlords and Tenants.  

James currently lives in Huntingdon and has always had a passion for sport, especially football where he is in the unfortunate position of being a Newcastle United supporter, you can usually tell by his face on Monday morning whether they have won or lost over the weekend!
