Why Us
10 Reasons to Work with Oikos Property
Buying or renting a property in Hong Kong is a significant financial decision, often one of the most important investments you will make in your lifetime. Wouldn't it be reassuring to have the guidance and expertise of a reliable real estate professional to help you navigate this process?
Here are 10 reasons why you should work with Oikos Property:
1. Single Agency Representation
In Hong Kong, estate agents often represent both the property owner and the buyer/tenant (dual agency). As an independent estate agency, we at Oikos Property usually represent and act only for you – the buyer/tenant or the vendor/landlord. This ensures that your best interests are prioritised throughout the entire process.
2. Extensive Network
We work in partnership with other competent local estate agents who specialise in the districts you are interested in. The combination of our professionalism and their local insights allows you to get accurate, up-to-date, and unbiased information, providing you with a comprehensive understanding of the property market.

3. Ample Choices
We will present you with a number of property options that fit your specific requirements and budget range. This gives you the opportunity to compare different properties and their prices, enabling you to make a well-informed decision.
4. Serious Negotiation
We will negotiate the best price and terms for you based on current market trends, property valuations, and recent transaction records. You can be assured that we will secure the most favourable deal on your behalf.
5. Good Communication
Our property consultants are proficient in English, Cantonese, or Putonghua. We understand that attentive listening, a positive attitude, and asking the right questions are the keys to effective communication, which is crucial in property transactions.
6. Privacy Protection
We will not share your personal information with any other organisations without your prior consent, ensuring the confidentiality of your details.
7. Time and Effort Saving
We will work hard for you, so you don't have to. We will handle the entire process, from arranging property viewings to signing agreements, and give you timely advice, saving you a significant amount of time, energy, and unnecessary stress.
8. Excellent Service
Your needs are our priority. We will provide you with professional and comprehensive follow-up services, such as appointing a solicitor, getting a mortgage, handling utility setup, and managing tenancy renewals, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience.
9. Blessed Community
When you work with us, you are contributing to a greater good, as we at Oikos Property will donate a portion of our profits to charity and those in need, making your transaction a blessing to others.
