Great team. We sold our house twice (one fell through) with CJ Hole Kingswood. Had lots of viewings, quick sale and efficient service. The team communicate well with each other and the client and you feel you are always up to date. They hassled solicitors for us in order to speed the sale along and in general were very supportive. I can't think of anything to fault the team on. It is worth stressing that we sold during the covid-19 lockdown (sale agreed before, and completion in about week 5 of lockdown), which was of course a very stressful time to be selling a house. The team were great though. It was hit and miss at times, but CJ Hole helped all the way along.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

C J Hole in Downend did a superb job of selling our house in Downend. 22 viewings and sold within one month. Follow up and chain chasing service was excellent, we were kept involved every step of the way.... all during Covid pandemic too.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

CJ Hole Bishopston were very helpful and informative during my flat search in Bristol. There was a very quick turnaround time from viewing to the landlord accepting my offer. Magda was particularly helpful, checking in regularly with emails/phone calls and answering my queries. I would highly recommend CJ Hole and would be pleased to deal with Magda in future property searches.

Both Lorraine and Marcus were extremely helpful in my recent very protracted house sale and were very patient through what was an often frustrating process! A big thank you especially to Lorraine for keeping me in the loop on things and dealing with all the problems and issues that came up along the way.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Have just been rang approximately 3 weeks after I scheduled an advanced valuation request for the 26th October to be told albeit politely that "CJ Hole based on current demands are wishing to place their focus on houses and not flats- this is where the demand is currently at". Approx 3 weeks earlier having completed the form on their website i was rang and told that they are swamped by demand and to try elsewhere as there are no appointments over the next couple of weeks. I politely informed them that if they check their booking system they will see that i have booked for around 6 weeks time. "Oh sorry - i was told, our calendar system doesn't work so it hadn't told us what date you were interested in". I will leave others to decide whether they feel this level of service is professional or not but for me Its akin to a taxi driver at Heathrow airport deciding that your short trip fare is not worth it as they'd rather pick up a more lucrative passenger. That's fine but this is a 2-way street - perhaps others will vote with their feet, as CJ Hole clearly value some business more than others......I will cancel the accommodation i had booked and will no longer head 100+ miles out of my way to help my vulnerable mother who is in residential care since CJ Hole would rather enrich themselves with a more lucrative portfolio. ***CJ Hole has replied with "Our database of buyers is not the best fit for your property, and it is only right and proper to communicate this honestly from the outset. We wish you good luck with your mother's sale."*** Except that you didn't communicate that - perhaps you should listen to your recorded calls. You stated that your focus is now on houses not flats and at no time did you say or allude to "our database of buyers is not the best fit". Considering you haven't seen the property which is a 2 bed centrally located apartment with no onward chain you obviously care more about your reputational damage and less about acting ethically. You currently have apartments on sale for as little as £99,000 so the idea that that your appealing to a certain demographic is frankly delusions of grandeur.***NegativeProfessionalism

Dear Mr Clarke Thank you for your review, and we are sorry that you are disappointed with our service. Your valuation request was for the end of October, and we contacted you well in advance, giving plenty of notice for you to find a more suitable agent. We offered to recommend another agent, but you declined. Agents have different buyers depending upon their position in the market place, and selecting the right agent to achieve the best possible price is an important part of the valuation process. Our database of buyers is not the best fit for your property, and it is only right and proper to communicate this honestly from the outset. We wish you good luck with your mother's sale.

I've been renting for nearly 20 years, and my experience with Matt Friend at CJ Hole Burnham was easily the best I have had with a house move in all that time. Always there to answer queries, and flexible with our own arrangements. Everything was ready and sorted for us when we moved in, couldn't have asked for better, 5 Stars all the way.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Such lovely staff. It was my first property purchase, and I was rather anxious about it! However, the CJ Hole Redfield staff helped me every step of the way, and were really quick to respond to any questions and queries I had. I was working directly with Bonnie, who was super lovely to work with on the purchase of this house. I can certainly recommend!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

We purchased a property. Vendor was flexible in allowing us access facilitated through CJ Hole. At first visit CJ Hole showed up precisely on time and gave us space to consider our thoughts only interjecting to answer queries raised. Unpressurised. Our requests to the vendor were promptly forwarded and responded. We were given key access when needed, with staff volunteering to attend out of hours to deliver and collect keys. Our purchase was smooth and we found CJ Hole responsive and professional throughoutPositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

We purchased a property through CJ Hole - with a move in date in the middle of the pandemic lockdown. Even with the obvious disruption to Alex and the rest of the team their service continued to be exemplary - Alex was responsive, handled all the various queries flying around, and did it all with good grace to get us moved. I massively appreciated their help moving in a difficult time. I highly recommend them for their service. It was faultless from viewing to completion.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
