“I am rarely still. Most of my free time goes on exercise: boxing, a weekly CrossFit session with the team, aerial & Gymnastic sessions and, for something completely different, line dancing. I share my home with three adult men and two male Sealyham terriers, so I am well and truly outnumbered, which may explain the boxing.When I am not training, I love going out with friends for good food and drinks, and travelling whenever time allows.People describe me as hardworking and loyal. What I enjoy most, at work and outside it, is helping people learn something new and seeing their confidence grow. One thing you might not guess about me: I used to be a pole fitness instructor.”
Elliot Oliver Lettings is an award-winning lettings and property management agency based on The Promenade in Cheltenham. We look after landlords and tenants across Cheltenham and Gloucester. We also manage homes in Cirencester, Malvern, Worcester, Evesham, Swindon, Birmingham and London. We were awarded Gold for Letting Agent in Cheltenham at the British Property Awards 2025–2026.
I am Georgy Phillips, Managing Director. I have worked in lettings for more than 22 years, the last 11 of them at Elliot Oliver. I started in credit control and finance, then moved into training, operations and leadership. Because of that I know the business from the numbers up, and it shapes how we work: clear processes, accurate accounts, and a team that is properly trained and supported to grow in confidence.
We help landlords with everything from finding and referencing the right tenant to full property management. That covers compliance, rent collection, maintenance, inspections, deposits and the end of the tenancy. Our aim is simple: protect the landlord’s income and property, and give tenants a home that is well looked after.
The timing matters. The Renters’ Rights Act 2025 is the biggest change to the private rented sector in a generation. It brings the end of section 21, the move to periodic tenancies, and new database and ombudsman requirements. Many landlords who have managed their own properties for years are now asking whether they can keep up. That is where we come in.
Since April 2026 we have been part of the Dwelly Group. That gives us the backing of a larger group, while you still deal with the same local team and get the same personal service.
Good introductions for us:
Landlords who manage their own property and are unsure about the new legislation
Accidental landlords: people who have inherited a property, are relocating for work, or are moving in with a partner and letting their own home
Homeowners who want to let their current property while they buy or renovate
Solicitors (probate, family and conveyancing), mortgage brokers, financial advisers and accountants whose clients own rental property
Estate agents: we do not sell property, but we welcome lettings introductions, for example from sellers who decide to let instead, or buyers purchasing to let. We pay a referral fee for any introduction that goes on to instruct us.
HR and relocation teams moving staff into the area
What I can offer the group: honest, practical lettings advice, plus referrals for anyone whose clients rent, let or invest in property.
