GoogleHaving bought our house through Bridges over 6yrs ago and having experienced how hot they were in ensuring the sale made it to the final hurdle they were our first choice when it came to putting the house on the market. They lived up to expectations at every stage in the process, and once again their approach to have a dedicated sales progression contact ensured everything ticked along and when push came to shove, they were able to provide the all important conduit between the buyer and the solicitors to speed things along - we exchanged contracts in time to secure a rental and have now completed on our sale! Very happy customers who highly recommend Bridges to anyone looking to sell in this challenging climate. Superb service and a big thank you to all the team at Fleet!

TrustpilotDO NOT USE THIS COMPANY
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Made an appointment to view a property. After waiting, and then eventually calling the estate agents, they put me on hold for the manager, who made the appointment, that this had not been booked. He then, rather then apologise, informed me it was my fault for not having a confirmation email, because obviously him telling it was booked wasn't enough. IAfter, being told by multiple people that bridges were, simply terrible, I thought I'd give them the benefit of the doubt. This was the wrong choice.

AVOID. Unprofessional, untrustworthy and not transparent. Complained to the Ombudsman.
In our experience the worst estate agent in Caversham by a long shot. We have bought and sold houses before, but never worked with one that was this unprofessional. Out of the 4 people we dealt with, only one of them was decent (V). We were selling a property with another estate agent and trying to buy one via Bridges. We felt that we were lied to, and that all along they acted in their own interests and not in their clients’ interests. We felt that they engineered situations so that they benefited by prioritising offers from sellers on their books, and did not present all offers in an fair and transparent way.
Our chain did fall down a couple of times but was re-established quickly each time, and Bridges were kept in the loop. In the end we were swapped out in favour of one of the sellers on their books despite our chain being closed again. We believe Bridges presented the information to the upper chain in a way that ultimately led them to go with the other buyers. This resulted the two properties at the top of the chain that Bridges were selling dropping their prices to accommodate the offer from the other buyer. Our offer was higher we had a closed chain and had invested time and money in that purchase as were already 2-3 months into a purchase.
We were so shocked by the behaviour of Bridges that we went to the ombudsman. In the end the ombudsman was not able to rule in our favour and this was in part due to the lack of paper records kept by Bridges. It seems that integrity and professionalism are not a prerequisite for being a good estate agent anymore. We felt it was important to raise the issues we had with Bridges to the ombudsman and we would encourage anyone else to do the same. There are some other online reviews of Bridges that sound all too familiar to us and our situation. In a small place such a Caversham word of mouth is important, and Bridges cannot keep on treating people in this way. Andy was rude, aggressive, and patronising and acted without integrity throughout; he lied to our face; he criticised all of the other agents in Caversham; and his reputation of ‘always chasing the money’ precedes him.
No doubt Andy will contest what we have said here, but we know what happened. If anyone has had a similar or worse experience then please get in touch as we are still liaising with the ombudsman.

GoogleSuperb service throughout both sale and purchase. Ben who we sold through was fantastic. Prompt feedback on viewings, and pretty much had viewings from the first day of going on with Bridges. Dom, who we purchased through was excellent. Always got the impression that he was firmly in control and you were in very safe hands. Go as far as to say, if your buying or selling in the Ash Vale/Tongham and Aldershot areas, Bridges are the people to use.

GoogleBridges were great all round in identifying the right house for us in the area when we were looking and then were extremely good at following up and keeping the whole process moving through to completion. Kevin and Ben were our two main points of contact and both did a great job in their respective areas. (Shame the agent we sold through wasn't as motivated and helpful as they were...)

GoogleBen Granville has been a complete pleasure to deal whilst going through what started to be an arduous process to sell my property. My initial appointment of an Estate Agent was not with Bridges Estate Agent, but that did not deter Ben providing some excellent advice on the process and every week followed up with a call to ask how the sale of my property was going. Upon being able to work outside the initial sole agreement (not Bridges Estate Agents), Ben was able to confirm three viewings within the first 24 hours. The images of the property were much better than those taken by one of the competitors. Ben’s tenacity continued to shine through one contracted to work Bridges, dropping me update calls on a very regular basis. Ben is personable and is an enthusiastic individual and this is evident in his approach to his work and clients. I am now at offer stage on the property which happened within one week of going live with Bridges. I would not hesitate to recommend Ben in going forward.

GoogleHaving just sold two houses with Bridges I can thoroughly recommend Aaron Milligan and the team. Bridges were my first and only choice and I'm pleased to say the service I received is exactly what I had hoped for.
Aaron is experienced, knowledgeable and most importantly supremely easy to deal with. Cheers Bridges!
