We move as one
360-degree agency, build, creative and design services.
There are plenty of real estate businesses out there ‘to the manor born’. Not this one. Not OBI. We’ve committed from day one to build a business we love, in a city we love. And it’s taken that passion and no shortage of determination to inspire new ways of working, new partnerships and new opportunities for everyone we work for, work with, and even work against. OBI – creating a new legacy – not just continuing someone else’s.
