TrustpilotDO NOT HESITATE TO USE BEAR
I have just completed on the sale of my family home, to say I am happy with what Bear have done for me is an under statement. I first met Roman, the branch manager. A young man with a wealth of knowledge and great ideas. I had four valuations. Roman gave me more information than the other three valuations I received put together. His photos and brochure he created was impeccable. Tia and Jacob kept me up to date with my viewings and feedback along the sales journey. I was always in the know and secured me a price I was very happy with. Zoe progressed the sale to a satisfactory completion, keeping me up to date during the business end of this transaction. For me personally, this was a difficult time. However, Bear of Hockley were simply sensational and made the move a lot easier for me of which I cannot thank them enough. I have already recommended future clients to them and will continue to do so with zero hesitation. Bears...... Thank you ❤️

GoogleBear recently closed the sale on a family property. This had originally been on the market with another estate agent with little interest. The quality of the photos, sales and marketing process and enthusiasm from the team immediately boosted viewings. It wasn't a straightforward journey, but at every hurdle Ricky, Sydney and the team came up with reassuring and practical advice. Their communication is also excellent and I felt throughout they were really invested in not just the sale, but the relationship we formed with them as vendors. Highly recommend and won't hesitate to use their services again in the future.
