Michelle at Bonds could not have been more helpful. She effectively managed the process from start to finish meaning our move was hassle free. Nothing was too much trouble and communication was and continues to be excellent. We would not hesitate to recommend Bonds in general and Michelle in particular. Thank you !

Bond Residential came to us highly recommended and they have not disappointed. Our property was let very quickly after only one viewing.
Michelle handled the let in a very professional and yet friendly and approachable manner.
i would certainly recommend Bond Residential to anyone thinking of letting their property.

I couldn't decide whether to sell or rent my property and Bonds gave me all the help and advice I needed to make the right decision. They made an anxious process for me very relaxed and manageable and I would confidently recommend using them to anyone......especially Michelle!

In the last two years we have sold a house and rented out a new apartment through Bond Residential. We have received outstanding service from both Graham and Michelle and we would have no reservations about recommending them to our family and friends. A first class service.

View Agents TenantBad experience on Closing of the Rent Agreement
My daughter rented a property from Bond residential and despite cleaning the property at the end of the year, was told we needed to get it "professionally" cleaned..
When asked for the report of the previous "professional" cleaners I was told it was not cleaned professionally before the letting but we were still forced to pay for the cleaning service although I offered to clean it myself.
They deducted the cost of "professional" cleaning from my deposit even though I was not allowed to see the results. I have no idea if it was ever conducted, I only know that I paid for it !
My advice for any future renter from Bond - do not expect to get your full deposit back !
Colin · 12 January 2018
Agent replied · 15 January 2018
Hi Colin
As you are aware a letting agent is unable to make any deductions from the tenants deposit without these first being agreed by the outgoing tenant. We have written confirmation in an email from you agreeing for the professional clean to be carried out and the balance of your deposit to then be returned. Had you been unhappy with this then as you were informed at the time the matter would have gone into dispute and the deposit funds would have been held by Deposit Protection Scheme until the matter was resolved by the arbitration department of DPS.
It is therefore very disappointing that you felt it necessary to review Bond Residential service based on something that we have no control over.

View Agents BuyerExtremely disappointing
What should have been an extremely straight forward process (no chain) became a long and drawn out process (nearly 6 months), whereby the agent appeared to have no control or knowledge as to where things were at. Once my offer had been accepted, I continued to receive marketing emails on recent property added from the agent, and unsubscribed three times before the emails stopped. On completion, the agent did not have the keys to the property for me to collect, and I had to chase with three phone calls for the keys/previous owners to be located.. On my first visit to the property as the owner, I was then faced with a leak, resulting in a damaged ceiling, carpets (which on initial viewings were in great condition) that were damaged and stained and I have subsequently had to re-carpet the property, and a box of used needles which I am still trying to arrange collection of. Clearly no checks had been completed. All in all, I am extremely disappointed with the service received..

Hi Kerrie
We are really disappointed to hear of the issues you have experienced. As you will see from our reviews this is highly unusual and is actually the first ever 1 star review we have ever received.
As selling agents we are not responsible for the condition a property is left in by the previous owners and we thought this is why you actually viewed the property again to check the condition before you exchanged contracts.
If you would like to contact us directly we will be happy to look into the other issues you have raised in more detail.

View AgentsFantastic service on sale and purchase
We sold our house and purchased a new one through Bond. They were outstanding from start to finish. Everyone that we came into contact with was efficient, helpful and thorough. They knew exactly how to market the sale of our house and it was marketed and sold with 48hours! Throughout, we were made to feel that our sale and purchase were important to them and they kept us updated and answered questions, emails and phone calls faultlessly. The service was beyond our expectations and we would certainly use Bond again and recommend them.

After a long drawn out sale due to the buyer we have reached the end and I can't recommend the team at Bond residential enough. Most of the time they would keep me in the loop more than my solictor and did everything they could to keep the sale going through as quick as they possibly could. This is the second time I have used them and once again am not disappointed from start to finish professional and friendly and always at the end of the phone if I had a queary.
Thank you for all the hard work and pushing the sale through

FacebookPurchased house through Bond Residential at the back end of 2014. My initial contact was via phone and registering my interest in the type of property i was looking for. The initial house we inquired about had fully booked up their viewing spots. I let the agent know what we were looking for and if a viewing slot became available then to let us know. The next day i was contacted regarding another property that was not yet fully listed on the market. We had first viewing of the property and organised a second viewing two days later, after which we made an offer. I was constantly kept up to date by their helpful and friendly staff and felt like they genuinely cared about my purchase. Would recommend to anyone purchasing a new house, in particular the Chelmsford branch whom i have nothing but praise for. Considering this was my first time buying a property, between Bonds Residential and my solicitors, it was more straightforward than i could imagine.

As a buyer of a property sold by Bonds, their customer service and high work rate to get the sale negotiated, progressed and contracts exchanged was well above what we expected from an agent. The staff were all swift in responding to enquiries and very active in expediting the process with other parties.
