GoogleWe had an extremely good experience with Bernard Skinner. The service was very professional and we were updated on a weekly basis, and received all correspondence promptly. In particular, we were pleased with the service provided by Steven Pender, who was the negotiator for our sale; Steven is a highly experienced estate agent, who offered sound advice and steered us successfully through the process.

GoogleThe service I received from Amanda and Stephen was of the highest quality. Our sale was a difficult one born from the lost of our dear Mum but through out we were treated with compassion and kept constantly updated.
I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend or use them again.
Thank You

GoogleBought my first house!
Very happy with the highly professional services offered by Bernard Skinner.
The very first house they arranged for me to see fit all criteria on my list. Perfect match.
Thank you very much, Amanda. Exquisite services.
Fast, thoughtful, reassuring all the way. And very kind.
I am gladly recommending Bernard Skinner estate agents to my family and friends. And to anyone looking for a house. And I would definitely buy my second house with them.
Big thank you!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleHaving used Skinners previously to sell my Fathers house I didn't hesitate to use them for selling my own despite living a little out of SE9 just into SE12. Just like before the service was exemplary.
Despite my chain above not being the easiest to deal with! Skinners and Amanda in particular left no stone unturned and made sure we were always kept up to date and that the rest of the chain were also kept informed. I'm not sure without them we would ever have actually exchanged as they went above and beyond what you would expect. Feedback after viewings was also quick and honest.
If you are in or around the local area and wish to sell, don't go anywhere else, professional, timely, a personal service from the whole team (we are now on first name terms!) and there is a clear reason they are the longest established and best regarded estate agent in Eltham. Others have come and gone whereas Skinners have stood the test of time, the reason for that is clear.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleI have sold my house with Bernard Skinner and I can certainly recommend their services. They have involved me in decision and strategy on how to approach pricing the house, they have been on top of organising everything and informing me all along the way about the viewings and offers, they supported me in finding new house and in judging how to approach offer making, they have kept control over progress with solicitors, and on the day coordinated all the final actions. They went beyond of what I expected, and it was really nice to be always recognised by my name, whenever I called.

GoogleAbsolute fraudsters and time wasters if you ask me, failed to properly disclose the property they were offering was in a council building and that as a result I would never be getting a mortgage, not to mention they put all this on me and managed to waste 2 weeks of my time for nothing. Shame!

Dear Mr Bica,
I'm very sorry to hear that you feel you had a bad experience when dealing with our company. We pride ourselves on upholding the good local reputation that we have built up since we opened our first office in 1957 and as a result we take complaints very seriously.
I have carried out an internal review in regards to your complaint and I'm satisfied that we had made you aware that the block was a council building. I also have notes on our file which shows my colleague had in fact made enquiries on your behalf with the local authority to establish the percentage of council tenants still residing in the block, the findings of which we passed on to your mortgage broker.
I am also sorry that you has wasted two weeks of your time. I can reassure you that this would not have been our intention and as I am sure you would understand, from a business point of view we wouldn't want to waste two weeks of our time either.
As a reputable estate agent, we are a voluntary member of the Property Redress Scheme which is an ombudsman service. If you feel that we have not resolved your complaint we would invite you to raise your complaint with the PRS. Our membership No is : PRS012146
If you are still actively looking to buy please do contact me personally, I would be happy to assist.
Kind regards
Scott McDonald
Partner.

GoogleMoving after 63 years living in the same house could be considered brave or stupid, but either way the team at Bernard Skinner made the whole process much easier. Sam and the whole team were amazing, efficient and caring. They kept a keen eye on the move, keeping us well informed, chasing things up when needed. We would recommend anybody to use them, they were brilliant.

GoogleIt’s a bit weird when I was calling to book a viewing on a property. At the time I am both thinking of buying a buy-to-let property and moving home. The staff answering the call just said you seemed unsure about your financial situation… and hanged up the call so I couldn’t view the property! It’s the first time I came across this since I had viewed and purchased properties in London.

GoogleBuying a house itself can be a challenging process, especially for first time buyers, but buying a house during a pandemic can be really stressful. Not with Bernard Skinner! Steven from Bernard Skinner was exceptional, highly professional and experienced, absolutely reliable and always there if you need an update or just to ask a question. Everything happened according to the plan and as discussed. I cannot recommend them more and will be happy to use their services in future! Thank you so much for your hard work and all the efforts!

GoogleI would like to thank you for completing the sale of my parents property
In particular I would like to commend your negotiator Steven Pender. This was not an easy sale and there were difficulties throughout.
Steven worked so hard, he was professional throughout, dealing with the buyer, their Solicitors and my solicitors. I understand this is his job but it was the manner in which he dealt with the sale that was outstanding. They are retired people and have lived in their property for 50 years so it was always going to be emotional but the kindness and consideration shown to them throughout, made a difficult period so much easier.
As a result of Steven's actions we would thoroughly recommend the services of Bernard Skinner Estate Agents.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
