From 60 years in Hampshire to retirement in Dorset

Never had any doubt that we could sell our home just didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Thanks to Marcus and the team at Bushnell Porter it was all completed in 16 weeks. Marcus has been in this business a long time and he knows the market. His valuation of our property was a little under what we were expecting, but fair in the current market, so we came to an amical agreement and sold the house within 10 days .Their agents fees are competitive. Marcus is great at liaising with buyers, and other agents within the chain to keep things moving along He gave us excellent advice, regarding choosing solicitors and removers. All coming together very quickly. We have lived in the area for 60 years and have now settled in Dorset and couldn't have done it without Marcus, David and Lucy who make up the team at Bushnell Porter. We highly recommend them.

Great team in Bordon

The team at Bushnell Porter Bordon were so helpful from start to finish. They were always accommodating and thorough in keeping me up to date with the progress of my purchase. There were several hiccups along the way but we got there, and thanks to Marcus and David on the last day who helped get things over the line. Lucy also coordinated buying of various items of furniture which I was grateful for. Thank you so much David, Marcus and Lucy!

We recently used Bushnell Porter for both buying and selling our home and had a really positive experience. In particular, David was great to deal with throughout the process. He was always on the case, kept things moving, and we felt like we were in very safe hands from start to finish. He really put himself out to find us our perfect home. We really appreciate all the effort he put in to help get everything over the line and would happily recommend Bushnell Porter to anyone looking to buy or sell. Thank you.

Above and Beyond from Start to Finish

Marcus went above and beyond throughout my purchase. He was the estate agent for the property I was buying, yet he also offered more support and clear guidance than my own agent did for my sale. When issues in my sale and in the wider chain caused unnecessary stress, Marcus took the time to explain what was happening and helped me understand the next steps. His patience, professionalism, and genuine willingness to help made a difficult process much easier. I would highly recommend Bushnell Porter for their exceptional service.

Bushnell Porter - David

I have recently sold my property with David from Bushnell porter. My experience with David has been fantastic and I cannot thank him enough. Selling a house is a stressful experience but with David’s help and his re assurance through numerous phone calls and emails throughout the sale I knew I was in good hands. The property sold smoothly and David made sure everything was in place for completion day. Overall, I am very happy with David and I would recommend him to anyone who needs a smooth house sale with great communication throughout.

Have recently sold a property through Bushnell Porter that another local estate agent couldn’t sell and messed me around with. Absolutely incredible, honest conversations with both Marcus and David. Kept me up to date and nothing was ever too much hassle. I live hundreds of miles away from the property and so my access to it wasn’t easy for me. David and Marcus kept me updated with everything and had my confidence restored in estate agents.

Recommended!

This is the third time I have either bought or sold a house with Bushnell Porter, Southsea. They have always been thoroughly professional, ensuring good communication between all parties - and in one case, acting as a calming influence when a buyer got fed up with the inevitable delays that are often part of the process. I can't recommend them strongly enough!

We had a pleasure of working with Marcus and his team and we are beyond impressed with their level of service. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable and dedicated to help with our real estate transaction. A big thank to David who was our advisor throughout the process. What really stood out to us was his ability to negotiate on our behalf saving us a significant amount of money-for more than we even expected. We always felt like he had our best interest at heart and he made the entire experience smooth and stress- free. We highly recommend Bushnell Porter to anyone looking for reliable, efficient and friendly service.

Excellent service

Marcus and David were professional and positive with the sale of my house, even though the market was volatile at the time. I ended up with two possible buyers, hence a good sale price. David was an excellent go-between with my buyers, helping to bring things to a successful end.

An absolutely fantastic service once again delivered by Marcus and the team. In what was a complicated sale, Marcus really pulled things along to ensure that the sale was completed being of great help to both myself and the buyer. Without Marcus, I suspect the sale may have fallen through and his diligent professional approach prevented that. I would engage with Bushnell Porter again in the future and have no doubt of their ability provide the best possible service.

100% recommend!

100% recommend!! We had the pleasure of David supporting us through buying our first house and made the experience seamless, exciting and personal. He was approachable, professional and enthusiastic from our first viewing to completion.David was contactable by phone or email throughout the process. He answered all of our questions and provided regular progress updates which was lovely and reassuring. What was even more wonderful, was that anyone in their office was willing to answer our queries and were very personable and friendly. David went above and beyond the call of duty, remaining in constant contact with both ours and the sellers' solicitors to ensure that the transaction progressed as quickly and smoothly as possible. We are incredibly grateful for his efforts and we are sure the sellers would agree that he helped make the process as easy as possible for us both.Having had negative experiences with several other estate agents, Bushnell Porter have restored our faith in the profession.When we come to sell our house, we will most certainly be requesting the services of Bushnell Porter.We love our new home and are settling in nicely. Thank you to all the team at Bushnell Porter especially, David.

Bushnell Porter: The best estate agency I've dealt with

Marcus and his team at Bushnell Porter have been exceptional in selling my home and helping me acquire a new home in difficult circumstances. I had purchased my home in this area many years ago; originally through Bushnell Porter and had asked Marcus for advice on a couple of occasions whilst we resided there. So, when it came to selling the house, he was an obvious candidate but being fiscally aware, I asked a number of local, national and internet estate agents to provide valuations and their associated costs to sell. Without being too disparaging and going into detail, the majority of candidates were rather underwhelming. I chose Marcus based on a number of considerations……well established, independent and local; an impressive detailed market knowledge, his obvious motivation, honesty and integrity in his valuation; whilst his pragmatic approach, reasoning and ability to justify his opinions were plausible, realistic and accurate. Besides, he was the most competitive…….We marketed our house and in a seller’s market; it attracted a lot of interest and sold to a reliable purchaser. The timescales involved were very tight to move quickly and accordingly save money on stamp duty tax relief. However, Marcus being “streetwise” offered timely, pragmatic advice that I followed and acted upon immediately; whilst he liaised, cajoled and coordinated with solicitors, searches and other estate agents to facilitate the move within the time frame. I firmly believe that his experience and instinct in these matters were critical. His direct involvement ensured we saw the transactions pass within the short time frame and consequently save money on unnecessary tax. His determination and drive are admirable.On the other hand, procuring a property was far more challenging. Without doubt, Marcus and his team showed great empathy, care and understanding and amazingly they found me a property, that had at one time seemed unlikely. Indeed, his ability to negotiate and liaise are exemplary and I would have no hesitation to recommend his estate agency, Bushnell Porter, should you think of selling or purchasing a property in this area.I cannot fault Bushnell Porter with their help and their reassuring advice and they have been prompt and thorough in all my dealings with them. No overpromising, no wild claims, just honest, friendly and compassionate care at an excellent price. I’ve moved a few times. They are the best estate agency I have had to deal with.

Personal assistance all the way through, reminding the buyers and sellers (and solicitors when necessary), guiding me sometimes, but always on the ball. I went away for a week, and when I got back, my house had been sold, for the asking price, and my desired new but smaller house had been purchased on my behalf. You can't beat that!

We recently sold our flat with Marcus and david within a few days of it being on the market! They were both very professional and honest at all times with us throughout the sale. Everything took such a long time to go through like it always does however, David was always on the end of the phone or in the office for us to talk to and find out what was going on.. Cannot recommend this company enough! We are now moved and its all thanks to David for sorting everything out for us.
