About Us

Jean Talman

Director

Based in Bournemouth on the South Coast, Olive Tree Homes is run by Jean Talman. Following successful careers in electronics and complementary medicine, Jean began her property journey as a landlord in 2008 by purchasing several rental flats which are still retained as ongoing rental properties.

This led on to her first 5-bed HMO in Bournemouth, and for 8 years has been company secretary of Cherry Grange - a block of 9 flats in Bournemouth. This involves her organising the cleaners, window cleaner, gardener, all communal area maintenance, managing income and expenditure, book-keeping and liaising with the accountant.

Jean is one of 5 people who have since jointly purchased the freehold, and she is co-director of Cherry Grange Freehold.
