We recently sold our property with Bear estate agents who were helpful throughout the whole process. Megan in particular was fantastic, she kept us informed the entire time and communicated with the entire chains solicitors. Without Megan's hard work I do not believe we would have completed so quickly.... Read more

As first time sellers we had originally listed our house with another agent but after months with no offers we switched to BEAR Leigh on Sea and are so glad we did. From our initial conversation with Tom about the right price for the property, to Marcos' marketing of the property and getting us an offer in the first month, to Wendy's work on the progression of the sale through the conveyancing period, we have been really impressed with BEAR and are so glad we switched to them. Only wish we had gone with them in the first place!... Read more

The team in the Leigh-on-Sea office were available 7 days a week, which I found to be very useful when selling our property through them, especially for those that wanted to book viewings on weekends outside of the normal working week, as some estate agents were closed on Sundays, we thought this was certainly a plus using Bear for our sale. There was always a friendly greeting on the phone and relevant team members at all stages of the process responded when feedback was needed which was great. We found Megan to be very proactive with our sales progression, with constant communication back and forth and certainly seemed knowledgeable in her field and especially helpful on the day of our move! Thanks Bear Team!... Read more

We had a difficult start to our sale with another estate agent, so we switched to Bear as soon as we could and they made a huge difference.

Well done to all of the team at the Leigh-on-sea branch, it’s been a real pleasure dealing with you all and I’ll definitely be using you again in the future.

As others have pointed out, the branch manager Megan is absolutely abysmal and can only assume she got her communication training from an angry mute. Ignored calls into the office over the course of weeks and months. Occasionally got a snotty email with no useful information e.g. ‘we haven’t heard anything’ without any suggestion of intent to do something about it. Customer service training needed urgently. Director Tony is about the only person we spoke to that had any sort of nous and professionalism. Having just completed on a house purchase with another agent, Amos, it has been like night and day in terms of the communication and overall service received.... Read more

I have been very happy with Bear right from the start, around 4 months ago. I was pleased, when Jack first came to value my property, with his pleasant attitude, which made me feel at ease, and I then new I was going to Bear to help guide me through what I believed to be a daunting task of selling my house of over 30years. I was kept informed at every step, as we had people to view, and I met more of the staff from Bears at each viewing. Each and everyone I met, or spoke to on the phone, were so polite and easy to talk to, it felt like you were talking to your friends, and yet they were very professional as well, in the advice and help they were giving. And finally, the day I exchanged. All their work has got me to this point and I couldn't be happier, so a big thank you to all the members of the team that looked after me and I would recommend them unreservedly, if you are looking for a very professional and friendly team, to help you move to the next chapter of your life....

This review is to express my disappointment and frustration with the customer service provided by one of your agents, Megan, during our recent experience with Bear. Last year, my husband and I purchased a property through Bear, and unfortunately, our experience was marred by a significant lack of communication and professionalism from Megan. For approximately six weeks, despite numerous attempts to reach out via phone, email, and social media, we received no response from Megan. This prolonged period of unresponsiveness caused us immense stress and uncertainty, as we were left in the dark regarding the status of our purchase. It was only after our estate agent, Jordan Evans in Kent intervened and lodged a complaint with Megan's superiors that we finally received a response. Regrettably, Megan's reply did not acknowledge her lack of communication or the distress it caused us; instead, she seemed to dismiss the issue entirely. When we initially encountered Bear, Megan's charming demeanor during our visit to the office in Leigh led us to believe that we were in capable hands. However, her actions following the acceptance of our offer contradicted her assurance of being "with us every step of the way." The six-week period of being ignored by Megan was undoubtedly one of the most stressful experiences I have ever endured, and it was entirely avoidable. We are still bewildered as to why Megan chose to disregard our attempts to contact her, especially considering the importance of clear communication during such a significant transaction. While we understand that we cannot always choose the estate agent representing a property we wish to purchase, we certainly have the discretion to select an agency when selling our own property. Based on our negative experience with Bear and Megan's substandard customer service, we have no intention of entrusting our future property transactions to your agency. I hope that this feedback prompts a reevaluation of the customer service standards within your company and ensures that other clients do not endure similar experiences in the future.... Read more

Excellent service from Bear. Jack was extremely patient with us and valued our house at exactly the right price point, and then did a good job of the photos. We had a steady stream of people to view - into a house that I didn't think would get that - and everyone was interested in the accommodation and there were no time wasters. Fees were very reasonable, and no requirement to have a board up outside. Buying, which we also did through Bear, was similarly excellent, and the team were always careful to listen to what we wanted and didn't push properties that didn't match our requirements. Can't fault them, and would use them again (although I'm rather hoping not to have to move again!). Highly recommended.... Read more

Recently bought a house through Bear in Hadleigh, and I have to say Bear - Megan Carmichael is a keeper! Do not lose her!!

Having to purchase a home of my own for the first time at sixty years of age, was a very daunting prospect. However, the team at Bear Estate Agents Leigh have gone above and beyond in their duties, not only helping me secure a house I love, but also making the process as smooth as possible; getting me from my offer being accepted to exchange of contracts in two-and-a-half weeks! My thanks go to Alex and Jack for their endless patience in showing me the house again and again, but my deepest thanks go to Megan who has helped me navigate this process with kindness and understanding. Her professionalism and efficiency have facilitated my purchase in record time and with the minimum of anxiety. I cannot wait to begin my next adventure in my new home and would not hesitate in recommending Megan and her colleagues to help you begin yours.... Read more

This branch is seriously lacking professionalism. Arranged a viewing for a property which is located in a different city to where I am based. Everything was confirmed via email at least twice. Arrived on time to the property to only find out that the seller had no idea someone is coming to view the place. Apparently no one even contacted her. Could not see the place, which means I wasted hours of getting there and back + train fare for literally nothing. Sent an email to the agent I was dealing with from this branch. Not even an apologetic email back, let alone suggesting an alternative viewing slot. Complete silence. Probably the worst treatment I ever had.... Read more

All staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Our experience however was mixed… They needed a bit of a nudge to get us viewings but when at viewings, were positive about our property and really helped those viewing see the potential. Our first offer fell through because the agent didn’t check the buyers situation and chain before we accepted their offer so we had to go back on the market and had a lot of anxiety of selling within the timeframe we had available but credit to them, they got us more viewings and got us sold (for a second time!). They were very keen for us to drop our price after 3 weeks of being on the market which made us question their original valuation.... Read more
