About Ross Burbidge

I’ve been an estate agent for more than a decade now and although my background is in sports science, I’ve always loved property so my role as sales director at Elliot Oliver is a brilliant and inspiring role for me.

I started off in a junior role but I’ve made a lot of progress and worked my way up, mainly because I enjoy working with people and enjoy the buzz of the sale. To be a good estate agent you need to be able to join the dots between people and properties. You need to be able to get the best price for your client and keep the chain progressing to make the move happen as smoothly as possible. It’s also vital to be able to see the hidden potential in a property and to help others to see it too.

Elliot Oliver is a brilliant place to work as it’s come from opening in 2016 to now ranking amongst the top estate agents in the town, dspite there being lots of chain estate agents around here. Hopefully we’ll carry on growing and improving year by year and expand further.

My ideal sale is an unusual one. I’m a huge fan of horse racing and football, so I’d love to sell Jonjo O’Neill’s racing stables at Jackdaws Castle in Cheltenham to former Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard.

When I’m not dreaming of showing my heroes around racing stables, I’m busy being sporty myself as I play football and cricket for Hatherley and Reddings CC and I’m hoping my daughter Molly turns out to be as fond of sports as me. It’s not all hectic, though, as we also like to walk our dog Lucky on Cleeve Hill and in Pittville Park, as well as spend time in the 131 or Harry Cook’s.
