We received an outstanding service from Amanda and her team. It was a very frustrating move as solicitors were very slow but Amanda kept everything in order and consistently updated and encouraged us with fantastic intermediary skills and never took her foot off the gas!
We can thoroughly recommend Bernard Skinner. Thank you very much ????

The process of buying our new home was made so much easier due to Amanda's professionalism, expertise and thorough approach. She went above and beyond during the most stressful times of the purchase to ensure we were as assured and at ease as you can be when buying a house. Whether you're purchasing or buying, we'd recommend using Bernard Skinner.

I would like to thank Steven Pender for his outstanding work in completing the sale of my father's house. This was a complex sale from the outset but Steven worked tirelessly with 3 sets of solicitors and the buyers, plus the agents that my dad was purchasing his next property from to push the sale through and keep all parties on board and communicating. There were various challenges throughout the process but Steven was on top of all issues driving through solutions and keeping my dad informed at all times. We finally exchanged last week much to everyone's relief and look forward to the move taking place imminently. Thanks again Steven for everything you have done for my dad its really been appreciated.

I have appreciated the friendly, professional support of the Bernard Skinner team, led by Amanda White and ably supported by Steve and Sam, throughout the sale of our late mum's house this year. Selling a property following the death of your mum is never going to be easy, particularly when combined with the rigours of Probate. Nevertheless I have felt supported the whole way, reaching a successful conclusion just in time for Christmas. Well done, and thanks to Amanda and the team.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Bernard Skinner Estate Agency in Eltham, and I can't recommend them enough, especially Steve, who played a crucial role in helping me purchase my dream house. From our initial meeting to the final closing, Steve was incredibly supportive, transparent, and went out of his way to ensure everything ran smoothly.
Steve's deep knowledge of the local market, combined with his unwavering dedication and excellent communication skills, made the entire buying process a breeze. He was always available to answer my questions, provide valuable insights, and offer reassurances when needed. His attention to detail and commitment to his clients' best interests truly set him apart. I am immensely grateful to Steve and the Bernard Skinner team for their top-notch service and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to navigate the property market in Eltham.

Moving 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.

We used Bernard Skinner for the sale of our flat in Eltham. Due to circumstances that had nothing to do with us or them, but everything to do with the seller of the property we were originally buying, it turned into quite a long and stressful process for us. The team at Bernard Skinner however supported us every step of the way with patience, professionalism, honesty and integrity. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them to anyone else thinking of selling their property.
Thank you Stephen, Amanda and the rest of the team – you were great!

It’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.

I 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.

Steven was there for us every step of the way, always keeping us in the loop and chasing up things for us if we were stuck.

Many thanks Steven!

Having 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.

We do not live locally so were dependant on chosing an estate agent who we felt could be our 'representative'.

Thank you Amanda and team!

We have been looking for our dream home for a long time and I can certainly say Bernard Skinner in Eltham is the worst agency we've come across.
We made an offer for a house but after a week without updates we saw the property was sold and Steven Pender didn't even bother to let us know or let us negotiate. This is not only very unprofessional toward the potential buyers, but also the seller could have achieved more for the property.
If you are looking to buy or sell do yourself a favour and don't waste time with this agency.

Steven at Bernard Skinner has worked on the opposite side of a personal property transaction in a difficult chain which took longer than expect. He was very helpful in ensuring the process progressed (despite me not even being his client), particularly as my own estate agent was completely inept (an online estate agent). He is professional, highly responsive and diligence. Would definitely recommend! Thanks for all your help.

Buying 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!

We are very happy with the provided service. The viewings were professionally organised to accommodate our busy schedule and the staff was always happy to assist with any quarries. The feedback on the viewings was swiftly provided and we never had to chase for anything. 10 out of 10. Thank you Steven, Amanda and Sam we really appreciate your help.

I 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.

I was a first time buyer and worked together with Bernard Skinner's excellent agent, Steven in the past few months. During the process everything was smooth, Steven kept me up to date and he was also very helpful with any questions of mine. If at some point I would like to sell the house i will be considering with you - as opposed to Winkworth with whom I have had only unsatisfying experience. Please keep up the good service, thank you for your professional work.

We have just sold our house through Bernard Skinner. We have nothing but praise for their invaluable advice and guidance through the whole process. Their professionalism is second to none. Amanda has been amazing and kept us informed at all times. The entire staff have also had a part in the process. They are always there to answer any queries. We can’t recommend them highly enough. If you are thinking of moving, you couldn’t choose a better Estate Agent than Bernard Skinner, they are excellent.

Dated agency premises internally with an unfriendly vibe - some time ago I was very interested in a flat they were marketing - they were strangely non communicative about arranging a viewing claiming they would contact me once they had access - chased them after hearing nothing for a week only to be told it was sold now. There are better agents out there.

Very professional team at Bernard Skinner’s Eltham branch.I found the whole experience of my recent purchase first class and would recommend this estate agents to anyone who was thinking of buying or selling.I would personally like to thank Sam for showing us the property we chose and Amanda for her warm and engaging telephone manner not forgetting Ann and Steven who helped me at various times throughout my purchase, also not forgetting Alex Kerr who secured a great mortgage deal. I hope my review doesn’t sound like the Oscars but if there was one for estate agents they would get my vote.

Sadly I tend to discount reviews that appear too glowing, but find myself having to write such a review following our experience with the Eltham branch of Bernard Skinner, and in particular Amanda White, one of their partners.
We recently sold my late mother’s house and - based largely on alphabetical order - chose Bernard Skinner to handle the sale. Their service throughout was exceptional - providing a prompt and very accurate market valuation; arranging an energy survey; advising on a choice of solicitors; arranging and conducting a large number of viewings; keeping us informed throughout the process of progress and the status of each potential purchaser and - in spite of a lengthy delay while probate was granted - managing all aspects of the sale through to completion.
I would have no reservations about recommending their services, and will be using Bernard Skinner when we come to sell our own house.

A really professional service. Bernard Skinner's advice in relation to the sale price was positive and realistic. I had valuations from other local and national agents which proved to be wide of the mark given our eventual sale-price. I opted for Bernard Skinner as the advice was based on the most up to date market information regarding comparable properties. We had more than a dozen viewings in the first few days of the house being marketed and had accepted an offer within a week. This meant that the process of selling our home was stress-free. Everything was handled with minimum fuss and intrusion and Scott, Amanda, and Stephen made sure communication between us and the buyers was clear and efficient.

Absolute 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!

We had a great experience with Bernard Skinner from first viewing to collecting the keys. Steven showed us a couple of properties in the area and was very knowledgeable about Eltham and the Progress Estate. We found the process of making an offer clear and transparent, and Amanda was very helpful in progressing the sale with our solicitor. We were able to return to view the property before exchange, and access was provided for our surveyors etc. We would definitely recommend Bernard Skinner to anyone looking for a property in the Eltham area.

From day 1 the service provided by Steve Pender and his colleagues at Bernard Skinner Eltham has been second to non.
We were guided and supported through each stage of the 'selling process' from the initial valuation to the exchange of contracts , which in total took an amazing 6.5 weeks.
Selling , as we know, can be a 'daunting process' , but with the right Estate Agent setting the right price and supporting you all the way , it's no so bad.
We would highly recommend Bernard Skinner to anyone that is thinking of selling their property.
Big thank you to Steve and his colleagues.

We recently bought a property in Mottingham through Bernard & Skinner. Received an extremely professional service from them, especially Steven who looked after our case. He kindly arranged two follow up visits at a short notice. He contacted vendors on our behalf about a few issues that needed clarification and communicated back to us promptly. We were regularly informed about the progress of the deal at every step. Both of us (my wife & I) would recommend them. My wife bought her first property through them as well. We will happy to use their services again in future, although this might mean that I ended up winning that Euro-millions jackpot eventually ????

I wish I could score "Bernard Skinner" ten stars because I certainly would! This estate agent have a totally caring , hard working bunch of people working in the office who are committed to supporting their clients every step of the way. I have spoken to many members of the team and they are all knowledgeable, patient and helpful.. They do not offer the usual "sales talk" There is a genuine sense of care and commitment to the client and without the whole "supportive package" offered to me, the selling of my property would have been a complete nightmare! I would only urge ANYONE thinking of buying / selling to look no further than "Bernard Skinner" - I cannot praise or thank them enough!

Very happy with the service from Bernard Skinner. Having dealt with countless estate agents in London they are definitely one of the very few that I would recommend. Happy to accommodate several viewings, even after the offer was accepted, without any pressurised sales.

I approached Bernard Skinner, a well established family run estate agency, initially to obtain a valuation on my property. I felt I was given good advice, that the valuation was appropriate and my views were taken into account. I enquired as to how long it would take should I decide to put my property on the market, expecting it to be a few weeks. I was informed that after photographs being taken the following Monday the property would be on the market the next evening. I trusted the estate agent completely, choosing not to be at viewings, which followed immediately and accepted an offer in less than a week. The whole process was very smooth and professionally dealt with throughout. I would thoroughly recommend Bernard Skinner to anyone looking to sell and in fact already have!

Having lived in our house for 45 years it was time to downsize. From when we first arrived in Eltham Bernard Skinner has always been there and so we chose them as we thought they would understand our needs and know the area like the back of their hand, which proved to be the case. Despite the hiccups along the way they kept us informed and calmed down. Our move is now underway and so "Thank You" for all your time, effort and constant reassurance that we needed along the way. Couldn't have done it without you.

I viewed a property via this agent and was told the other person who had made an offer was definitely out of the running as they have wasted the agents and sellers time, the term used was 'archived'. Once I tried to request a second viewing the agent then told me that the there was still an offer on the table for the property and that there was little point of a viewing. I was then asked how much I would offer and then when they heard the amount I was point blank refused access to a second viewing. I was blocked at every turn in looking at the property. I thought it was up to the seller to determine which offers were good not the estate agent?. I didn't know that estate agents were telling people how much money they should spend on a property which is what I was told...firmly. If I cannot get at least a second viewing how can I know if I want to offer full asking ? This agent wanted me to tell her that I would offer the full before she would even book the appointment. I think this practice is disgusting. Obviously a place I would avoid in the future.
