It’s been at the forefront of service and performance in SA’s real estate sector for more than a decade and now, to signify a bold path into the future, it has had a rebranding.
Ouwens Casserly Real Estate, one of the state’s most awarded and recognisable property brands – due in part to its vivid orange colouring – is now known as just OC.
The rebranding’s mission is clear, it’s founders say – to cement OC’s position as an aspirational market leader for buyers, sellers, landlords, renters, and agents.

It’s a fair achievement considering it started with just three.
In that time, the company has become renowned for its guidance, expertise, and award-winning service.
Now, as OC, Mr Ouwens says, the company steps into the future with a renewed vigour, the revitalised brand ready to face the future while still delivering what it has become known for – high-performing agents and superior customer service.
“Putting people first has always shaped who we are,” Mr Ouwens says.

“From clients and team members to the communities around us, our focus is on supporting others through life’s important moments with genuine care and unwavering integrity.
“This rebrand is about more than aesthetics, it’s a reflection of our belief in the power of people, progress, and purpose.”
While the Ouwens Casserly might be gone from the name, its founders are still on the scene, as is the brand’s iconic orange, albeit in a more subtle, contemporary hue.
Mr Casserly says the name change gives the brand the scope to grow beyond its founders, with its collaborative team having greater ownership of the company’s success and allowing their individuality to shine.
