GoogleWe had a brilliant experience with Bear Estate Agents from start to finish. Our house sold on the very first day of viewings, which really shows how effective their marketing is. We had several estate agents round to give quotes, but Jamie stood out with his straightforward and honest approach, which made us choose him. They also offered the best value, including professional photography and guided viewings as standard, which others were charging extra for. Once the sale was agreed, the whole team were excellent, proactively chasing solicitors and working with other agents in the chain to keep everything moving. We couldn’t have asked for better service and would highly recommend Bear Estate Agents.

TrustpilotFirst class
We sold and bought through Bear. They found us the right buyer and also, thanks to Meghan, found us the perfect house. Unfortunately due to problems in the chain it took 7 months to go through but Tilly was our absolute rock and kept it all going. We highly recommend Bear for your next sale/purchase. Thank you team ❤️

TrustpilotBig Thank You to Helen
The purchase would not have completed if not for Helen at Bear Estate agents!!! She was in constant contact and chasing all solicitors in the chain. This was a very challenging purchase to get to completion. I am very grateful to Helen for her support and constant chasing along the chain. Well over and above what would be expected.

TrustpilotBear Estate Agents- sale of flat
The great part about using Bear Estate Agents was the service from the “ post offer” follow up team. I was selling a property. I dealt almost exclusively with Helen Wilson who did her very best to keep the deal together ( the chain broke down at one point) and to communicate. I called Helen numerous times and got through to her straight away. She was equally as responsive over email. When you are in the midst of selling/ buying the one thing I think is really important is feeling the estate agent is working for you and doing their best to get the deal over the line in a practical way. Good communication is key! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bear Estate Agents and Helen in particular.

TrustpilotHighly recommend
I had heard nightmare stories about estate agents and the whole moving process, but that wasn't the case with Bear. I sold and bought with them and it all went so smoothly. From the first viewing with Rob (who was new to the job), to having my house valued with Frank and Marcos. Emily and Donna also helped but the best one was my Sales Progessor, Tilly, she was so on the ball. They work as a team and get the job done. I would highly recommend them. My son also used Bear. Placed on the market in Dec and sold in Feb. Brilliant. Thank you guys
