I sold my house in Cheltenham through C J Hole. A nightmare from beginning to end. I seriously regret ever appointing them and I wish I had just switched direction. The one silver lining was the Saturday girl, she was really good and a breath of fresh air. Choose your estate agent wisely :).

Agent replied · 14 February 2025

Dear Chantelle, Thank you for sending your feedback and I sincerely apologise for the negative experience you have encountered. I followed the progress of your move which was connected to a purchase you made in another area and I am aware there were delays on your purchase and this required close attention to manage expectations. My Sales Manager remained fully engaged throughout the process and worked hard to help you achieve your moving objective; your sale was duly completed 3 and a half months after instruction. I would welcome the opportunity to understand more about the issues you experienced with C J Hole so please do feel free to contact me directly to discuss the situation. We consistently work hard to provide an excellent service for all our clients and if there are areas of our service that we can improve to help us enhance that journey, I would love to hear. Jeremy Prosser Managing Director

Absolutely awful, tried to deduct £620 out of our deposit, of course the DPS awarded it all back to us as they tried to claim for blinds that didn't work at the start of our tenancy, incompetent, missed EICR deadline, took over a year to get our holding deposit back when they changed the law, had contractors turn up unannounced & Jess on the phone telling us they left their notepad on the side & asking if he can nip back and grab it, when they didn't show up, wouldn't have minded but he was already in our house! Accused us of smashing the conservatory window & told us if we do not contribute towards the cost we will be evicted. We had our own builders and glaziers inspect it. But cj hole said their report showed we did it due to the shape of the cracks in the window, we asked for this said report to no avail as there wasn't a single crack left - they are very manipulative & caused us soo much stress while living there!

I've had the pleasure of working with the team at the CJ Hole Bishopston office for both residential and property investment matters, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Emily, in particular, has been exceptional, her professionalism, expertise, and dedication have truly made a difference throughout the process. Edward and Barry have also been fantastic, offering valuable support and insight along the way. Their transparency, attention to detail, and commitment to clients really set the team apart. If you're looking to buy, sell or invest in property, I highly recommend the CJ Hole Bishopston office. It’s been a pleasure working with them.

Really poor service so far. Really simple request ignored and deflected, wouldn’t recommend engaging with this business.

Dear Joseph I'm sorry that you have found our service to be poor. Can you please provide us with some more information and detail to the request you have made from the CJ Hole Cheltenham team so we can investigate further? Kind regards Justin Prosser Director

Booked an extended weekend off work because of the daunting task of looking for a property to rent in the same town. Before the end of the weekend we had somewhere sorted and the references were complete. So we were off to a great start and I got to enjoy my days off stress free. Oliver was our estate agent, and you could rarely meet a more affable and knowledgable bloke. He was available every step of the way and answered any banal questions I had promptly and enthusiastically. Fast forward a couple of weeks and I'm back to enjoying my freedom with my partner in our new home. All in all, a great stress-free experience. I'm skint, but I won't deduct any points for that. A few minor issues with the property itself, but the team have been just as swift and responsive in the aftercare as they are in the viewings/application process, so I feel we're in good hands. If we continue at this pace, I can't see myself recommending anyone else but Oliver and the crew at CJ Hole should anyone be moving to beautiful Cheltenham. Thanks guys.

Had a viewing with someone called Jess the other day. Very friendly and warm. Took my partner and I through the house and garden and was happy to look up any information they didn't have the answers to for us. Unfortunately the property itself was a lot less promising than it's listing made it out the be but altogether the process of the viewing and booking was made very easy for us and we will definitely be looking at other properties through them again.
