Danny was friendly and helpful in showing us the house and answering any questions. Also followed up timely which showed commitment.

They were okay until I couldn't get hold of them on the day I was supposed to collect my keys so had to make alternative arrangements to find somewhere to stay that night. I then went to this office the next day to collect my keys and it turned out they had lost the front door key. They got a locksmith to gain entry but the real cherry on top of the whole experience of dealing with CJ Hole was them then refusing to pay for the lock to be replaced.... 10/10 would NOT recommend.

Absolutely awful estate agents. I've tried for nearly a week now to get through on the telephone and they never answer their phones.
Hi Mike, thank you for your feedback and we’re sorry to hear about your experience trying to contact us. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide. We’re very concerned to hear you’ve been unable to get through over the past week, as this is unusual for us, and we will be reviewing our phone system as a priority to check for any issues. We’d really like the opportunity to assist you, so please do contact us via email and we’ll ensure your enquiry is dealt with promptly. Thanks, Ian

Ryan was a superstar, extremely knowledgeable and helpful with the viewing I attended. He knew all about the property, had answers to my questions, and has offered to keep me updated with other properties that might suit my needs too - great experience!

Great service from start to finish. The team were so professional, responsive, friendly and genuinely supportive throughout the whole process. I would especially like to thank Simon, James, Victoria and the lovely Tegan for all your help. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to sell their home.

Lived in a CJ Hole managed flat for 9 years and they honestly could not have been more helpful. Responses were prompt and fixes actioned whenever needed. In recent years, Katie and Marisha have both been great. They made it so easy to live in the flat knowing that if ever assistance was required, it would be there.
5/5
It’s always such a pleasure to see young guys so motivated and professional like Freya and Lockie. What an experience! They provided me with brochure and information that I needed to make my final decision. I really enjoyed my time with them.

Fantastic service from CJ Hole- The team at Kingswood are 10/10 both with knowledge and personality- From the moment they came to do the valuation we knew the right choice had been made and we wouldn't be looking elsewhere. We are a long way from the end of the process, but I feel comfortable knowing I have a great agency to guide along the way and push it all forward. EDIT 22/03- The sale has now completed and my initial feelings of CJ hole remain completely accurate- Kerry is an absolute asset to the team and was invaluable in helping keep the process moving, going as far as offering advice on our onwards purchase which was causing a few hold ups (not purchased through CJ hole). Our overall process start to end was under 4 months and this absolutely wouldn't have been possible without Kerry and the rest of the CJ hole team working as hard as they did. Thank you all!
Thank you for the brilliant feedback Dan, we really appreciate it!

Liam has really made the process working with CJ Hole an excellent one. From the first viewing he was clearly very familiar with his client, the vendor, and the flat itself, demonstrating lots of relevant knowledge and efficiently following …

It was a pleasure and a privilege to work with Max. From the bookings and viewing to the completion of the documents everything was so smooth and simple. He facilitated the entire process and experience. I would always recommend CJ Hole to all my friends.

St Stephen’s House 2026
St Stephen’s House. Gas, hot water and heating went out on 10th March 2026. Hot water reinstated on 11th March. Gas heating reinstated 17th March. Gas stove is still dead as of 17th March. Week w/o heating, week plus w/o cooking. Or, rather using electricity instead of gas, which is ca. 4-5 times more expensive. All are included in rent, so lodger is inconvenienced and landlord is paying the cost differential. This is not an old building, and it’s 2026. Keep in mind before you rent. Or let.

Carmelo was very warm and welcoming when showing me around for the viewing. The whole journey has been smooth and I thoroughly recommend CJ Hole.
5/5
The team at CJ Hole Southville were helpful and efficient with the process of renting out my property on short notice ahead of an international move. From advertising the property, to arranging the viewings or managing referencing and contracting processes - everything ran very smoothly. Special thanks to our property manager Max; who facilitated the process from the start. He’s professional, insightful and responsive - giving us peace of mind while abroad. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend CJ Hole.
5/5
Great service helping me with my purchase, especially from Julie, who went the extra mile to complete the sale and was very communicative throughout, and Justin, who was very helpful and knowledgeable during viewings.

Me and my wife had a great experience in our flat search with Tegan at CJ Hole Whiteladies Road branch. Tegan was absolutely great to work with. She was so professional, helpful and reassuring and we felt safe that she was acting in our best interests. It was a great pleasure doing business with her and I would highly recommend her and the rest of the team at CJ Hole Whiteladies!

Avoid CJ Hole Clifton & Premium Abodes! I was given l a property with multiple Category 1 Hazards, including a broken front door lock, (zero security), and a structurally failing ceiling with visible damp and a strong mould smell. I would upload the shocking photos but Google keeps blocking it. As the property is uninhabitable I am now legally homeless and I have received literally no help from this agency as they state " they don't manage the property." They will not acknowledge their agents lied to me about supposed improvements which were due to be made prior to me moving in, and they wont acknowledge the fact they have knowingly rented a property in this condition. While an agent named Harry was compassionate, the rest of the team has been appalling. Lucy Jones has avoided most of my call by "being in meetings" and never calling me back, and the manager, Tracey, has refused to speak to me despite the urgency of the situation. They have ignored a formal Right to Unwind under Consumer Law and have basically allowed me to have a breakdown over my housing situation whilst constantly passing the buck to other agents and the landlord. If you want an agent that actually communicates and follows health and safety laws, go elsewhere. This office would rather hide behind desks than acknowledge mistakes and legal failings which made me homeless.

Julie was great and really helped push things along for us. We had a really good experience with CJ hole. The staff are exceptional and really personalise what is a very stressful time. They know how to put you at ease. Julie, Emily and Cameron are fantastic.
Thank you Lee. It's great to hear from you and your positive viewing experience with Cameron. He was thrilled to hear your feed back. The team at CJ Hole.
