Strettons has appointed Olivia Boulting from Auction House UK as a director and auctioneer.
Boulting, who has more than 15 years of property industry experience, was regional manager and auctioneer for the Southern UK territories at Auction House UK.
In her newly created role at Strettons, Boulting will help grow the firm’s auction department, while working closely with clients throughout the entire auction process.
Andrew Brown, director and auctioneer at Strettons, said: “Olivia is one of the most recognisable auctioneers in the business and we are delighted she has chosen to join us. She has built a genuine following across the South West and beyond, not only through her impressive sale results, but also through her commitment to engaging a wider audience and promoting a greater understanding of the auction market, achieved through her regular attendance at property networking events and her role as host of one of the industry’s foremost property auction podcasts. That combination of rostrum experience and profile is exactly what we want as we continue to grow the department.”
Boulting added: “Strettons is one of the best-known auctioneers in the country with a catalogue that runs from London investments through to lots the length of the UK, so the chance to be part of that was one I did not want to miss. I was attracted by the combination of Strettons’ heritage, specialist property knowledge and forward-looking approach. It is a highly respected name with deep expertise, but also has the ambition and energy to keep developing and that is really exciting to be a part of. Just as importantly, its approach feels personal. Property is ultimately a people business and Strettons’ emphasis on relationships, trusted advice and delivering results strongly reflects how I like to work.”
