Friendly. But need a better system in place for recording complaints and making repairs.

We used CJ Hole to sell 2 flats and they were fantastic, especially Emma and Andy. Both transactions got a bit stressful towards the end, but they were always on hand to give updates and reassurance

It seems as though the company's process is to make every interaction as long as it can be so that customers give up. I am still waiting on a deposit from a property that I moved out of in July. The response rate for any queries to the deposit is a joke. Perhaps I will get a response this way? Poor, poor service

Emma and Andy at CJ Hole were very helpful, clear and communicative with our house purchase - we would strongly recommend! Thanks for all your help.

I had a great experience with CJ Hole. Both Sean and Emma kept a constant line of communication open at all time, keeping me informed at every stage of the process. Great service!

Seems strange every 5 star review has only a single review in their history. Almost as if the account was made for this purpose alone... CJ hole has 'managed' two student properties I have lived in now. I'm sad to say the response time to emergencies, correspondance, communication within the company, and the records made of the issues we were having, has consistently been terrible. Despite the extended time needed to 'clean' the property, both houses have had rubbish/debri from the clean left in the back garden. In this house, we flagged this immediatly on entry and its taken over a month and a half to have it sorted. The worst part is that there was NO RECORD of this complaint on their systems. I have no idea how they have 15 years of experience, when despite the lovely estate agents, the negligence and lack of accountability takes the spotlight above all else. You will call one of them with a complaint/issue, and then have to explain it again to someone else there a week later, like it was never even listened to in the first place. The 1 star is because the agents are actually lovely. But the management of the company and clients is an abomination. By all mean buy from them as I'm sure they're keen to make the commision. But never, ever rent from them. Tennants are not taken seriously.

I recently purchased through CJ Hole and had Emma as my sales consultant. She was communicative, helped with any questions I threw at her and was always at the end of the phone when needed. I felt she was transparent throughout the process and always honest.

So I tried to arrange a viewing, when I checked on the day of the viewing the website said unavailable.. So I tried to call to find out what was going on (and also emailed) I was hung up on multiple times and their staff were unhelpful to say the least. In my opinion If they can't arrange a simple viewing then they won't be able to manage their properties correctly.

Emma at CJ Hole took us through a VERY tricky sale which was fraught with problems from beginning to end. She was always at the end of the phone and responded to emails quickly. She was also proactive in chasing the vendors and their solicitor to get stuff done. It was very stressful but she made it easier. thanks!

Sean, Emma and Andy were extremely helpful and supportive during our very protracted conveyancing. They always kept us ‘in the loop’ at every hurdle: cheerful, efficient and very professional at all times.

I have been extremely pleased with the service received from C J Hole in the recent sale of my property. All the staff were very professional, especially Andy and Emma who kept me informed at every stage. Should I have the need in the future, I would have no hesitation in choosing C J Hole again.

Super fast and efficient. Honourable mention goes to Conor Fox who was brilliant and efficient and most importantly human. Renting in Bristol is a nightmare, but he was an absolute dream.

Bought my flat, through CJ Hole Bishopston. Was a difficult and painful process, however made all the easier by Emma Walker of CJ Hole. Easy to contact and she helped talk me down from the ledge quite a few times! Will definitely consider CJ Hole when the time comes to sell. Thanks Emma yet again for all your hard work!

After comparing four estate agents for lettings we decided to go for CJ Hole in Bishopston, since they offered the best value for money. We were not disappointed; they came around the very next day to advertise the property swiftly and only a few days later we had the first viewings. We can only recommend them.

Don’t expect to see your deposit back if you actually plan on living in your property. Happy to deduct £170 for water marks on a shower head but didn’t mind when our home was subject to several leaks which we cleaned without compensation. Expect a smirky reply from the manager as he’s proactive on here but not on a email. Fake smiles and a lot of lies.

Kerry · 15 January 2020 · CJ Hole Bradley Stoke

Agent replied

Hi Kerry, thank you for your review. We are always striving to improve our customer service therefore we have taken on board the comments you have made and we have carried out an internal review. The Landlord had requested part of your deposit to be deducted, not ourselves. Any deductions are based on comparing the current condition to the condition when you took up tenancy. The deduction covered a number of issues in the property, which you have been advised of. If you would like to discuss further, please feel free to call us at the office. 01454626300.
