David was born and raised in the country, which left a legacy in regard to both work ethic and morals.
After living in the Ivanhoe/Eaglemont area for the last 30 years, including 7 years working within that area, David decided to spread his wings to the Diamond Valley.
Now at Buckingham and Company for over a decade he is thoroughly enjoying the change of environment.
With over 18 years experience in real estate, and a background in customer service, David is perfectly placed to service both Vendors and Buyers alike.
David feels that empathy is one of the most important qualities to have in Real Estate and together with a proven high level of negotiating skills, his results speak for themselves. Added to that, he will go to extraordinary lengths to ensure satisfaction.
Married with 4 teenage children, the little spare time he has is spent with family, swimming and taking his boys to the footy.
David creates a strong partnership with his customers during the sales process and offers invaluable, sound advice on real estate.
Experience, honest & advice was spot on!
After almost a year of tracking sales and auctions in our area, we chose David and Buckingham & Co for the sale of our home, and are now extremely glad we did. David's experience, honesty, and advice were spot on, combined with Stuart, the best auctioneer in the business, they achieved a result well above our expectations. The team at Buckingham & Co all work in conjunction with each other for the benefit of their clients, and we have no hesitation in recommending David and Buckingham Real estate to anyone thinking of selling their most valued possession.

David was fantastic to deal with.
We had the pleasure of working with David Oakley of Buckingham and Co Real Estate, for the sale of our home December 2016.
David was fantastic to deal with, punctual and reliable. What sets David out from the rest, in our opinion, is his executive level communication skills. We were absolutely blown away by his quick response to our initial email and continuous quick responses throughout the whole process.
David understands the importance of professional attention and demonstrated this in all aspects of our sale.
David’s determination and ‘client first’ attitude created motivation, fun and positive energy in our home in the lead up to our auction. A time that could have been highly stressful, had we not had such a supportive real estate agent.
We are very grateful to have met David and are ecstatic at the auction result we achieved with the assistance of David, Stuart and the team at Buckingham and Co Real Estate.
We cannot thank you enough and will have no hesitation in recommending your services.

New experience selling
Having been a long time resident at our sale address, things have certainly changed since we sold our previous property and moved to Greensborough. This is the first time we had been involved in an auction and we were somewhat apprehensive. From day one, David advised us to put the property to auction, how right he was. The price achieved was in excess of our own estimate formulated over a considerable period of time. We were pleasantly surprised on auction day. In the marketing campaign leading up to the auction, I was impressed by the amount of work David carried out. He was always on time for open days, prompt to follow up telephone calls and provided a regular update regarding numbers of queries, particularly from interested parties. We also received a regular briefing of local market trends and a general outline of how the marketing campaign was proceeding. Post sale, David’s attention to detail has once again been prompt and excellent. He is a hands on person leaving nothing to chance. The result achieved was substantially due to David’s hard work. Genuine thanks from Bert and Barb.
