Olivia Buchanan and Olivia Dowling have combined their diverse backgrounds and shared values to form The Olivia Collective Team, a fresh, modern approach to real estate in Southland. Curated, collaborative, and unapologetically personal, their partnership is built on mutual respect, complementary strengths, and a genuine commitment to client success.

Known for her down to earth nature and ability to make the process smooth and stress free, she’s the perfect blend of heart and hustle. She is passionate about creating meaningful connections, delivering exceptional results, and helping people feel confident and cared for throughout every step of their property journey.
