We bought our home through Camden Bus seven years ago.
We were very impressed back then with the excellent levels of service and support.
When it came to selling, we tried with an online estate agent who takes payment upfront. It was a disaster they didn’t even achieve one viewing! After two months their only suggestion was to sell our flat at auction with no offer of a refund.
At that point we decided to go to Camden Bus. As my brother in law told me at the time, a professional estate agent.
The contrast was unbelievable. Gary's skill of marketing the property was evident almost immediately. Far from patronising us on how we are performing we could not believe the efforts Gary was going to in finding viewers. He knows the Camden market like nobody else and he is the right person to negotiate a purchase/sale for you.
We were assured that we would only pay if we sell and that we can find another estate agent if he doesn’t perform.
We felt in safe hands with Camden Bus. They worked really hard for us in finding people to view our property. Once he found a buyer, Gary was always a good person to go to gauge how the transaction was progressing, helping keep both sides on track.
Apart from that we had a good rapport with Gary as he is always so helpful. Gary is very knowledgeable and understands the property market with great connections. This skill and expertise has helped us in both our purchase first time round and again on our sale recently.
In short, skill, expertise, finesse and local knowledge serving those who would like to sell/buy through the finest estate agent in the greatest of London boroughs!... Read more

Gary is one of the most professional and ethical estate agents I've had the pleasure to work with. I spoke to Gary 14 years ago in relation to the sale of my flat in Camden. At the time I didn't decide to sell it in the end, but 14 years later in 2024, I decided it was the right time as it was time to upgrade from a studio to a 1-bed. Gary was my chosen estate agent after all these years owing to the professionalism, knowledge, and mannerism he demonstrated all these years ago. I wish Gary and Camden Bus more success going forward, and I look forward to working with him on a purchase in the near-future.... Read more

I was impressed with Gary Lazarus’s experience, local knowledge and ability to enthuse about my flat, and was delighted that my flat sold for significantly above asking price. At one stage I felt under some pressure from Gary to accept an early offer at full asking price, but I am glad that I decided to wait for a few more viewings, given the eventual outcome. Apart from that short period of tension, communication with Gary was easy, and he was also extremely helpful and generous in advising on any small issues that arose. I particularly liked the way that he handled all viewings himself; this is quite different from other larger firms where viewings are handled by multiple agents, some of them often quite inexperienced. I would certainly recommend Gary.... Read more

Dear Gary
We just wanted to say, thank you very much for your help on the sale of the above property. You found a potential buyer very quickly after Camden Bus Estate Agents were instructed to take over the sales marketing of the flat and more importantly at the asking price we wanted.
The whole process has been pretty painless and has not dragged on as some do with last minute haggling and further paperwork etc.
Once again, your help has been much appreciated and hope to meet you in Aldeburgh sometime in the future!!
Kind regards

Excellent service, professional and honest, tailored and personal, and miles away from the aggressive selling techniques and nonchalance of the corporate agencies.
We always encourage going local so we were also delighted to be working with a boutique local agency. Gary is an expert of the area and his knowledge was very insightful.
Always available whenever we called and replied to all our queries and emails ever so promptly.
Also advised and helped on technical matters beyond the purchase.
Thanks Gary, looking forward to bump into you at the Sainsbury’s!... Read more

I am absolutely over the moon with the sale of my house in Camden - and much of it is down to the help of Gary at Camden Bus Company.
Gary had sold the house to me 23 years ago- and I had an incredibly good experience back then with Camden Bus, as a buyer.
Throughout the years of owing the house, Gary has been very helpful and patient with my various valuation requests and always gave a professional, authentic and friendly approach together with a deep knowledge of the local (and generic) housing market.
Roll on to the present, I used Camden Bus to help me sell the same house this month and I cannot fault the experience. It was my first sale and was made smooth, stress free with the house selling at the asking price. It was on the market for a few days before a few offers came in, and the sale was completed within 9 weeks, going to the exact buyers Gary had targetted and that I had wanted the house to go to.
It just goes to show that a small local business like Camden Bus, knowing its local market inside out, together with the many years of experience in real estate definitely pay off for both buyer and seller. Five out of Five stars is not enough.... Read more

First of all, thank you so much for helping us during what turned out to be a grueling, long drawn-out transaction for the property we purchased on Greenland Road. Without a doubt, Camden Bus represents everything one would hope for in an estate agent but rarely comes across or hears of. We received exceptional personal attention and I have since done everything I can to continue recommending Camden Bus to friends and associates. Having Charles offer to pick up part of the cost of required works to be done before the sale took place was a commendable gesture, but offering to put up our family and 2 year old at his own flat due to delays with the vendor was a major step above the rest.
On a final note, thank you again Charles for the eggs from your “farm”… we thoroughly enjoyed the omelet!... Read more

Charles and Gary really do stand apart from other estate agents. We lived quite close to the bus for several years and knew them as friendly neighbours even before we put our flat on the market with them. It was definitely an excellent decision as they were remarkably easy to deal with throughout the process and also put us in touch with a superb solicitor. Thanks again guys!
Many estate agents tout for business by boasting that they can achieve high asking prices but instead of promising the earth Camden Bus concentrate on delivering achievable sales prices - sales prices that still beat those of brash competitors - and a friendly, efficient service. (Our sale price was higher than the Zoopla estimate.) Their justified confidence in their service is reflected in their contract for sellers - it's only a few lines long and does not tie you to them for months.
As local residents they know the area extremely well themselves so if you're looking to move to the area Camden Bus is a very good place to start. You can be guaranteed that they will do their absolute best for you - after all, they're the first new neighbours you will meet.
Highly recommended.... Read more

They have not pestered me with calls or tried the hard sell on me at all and as a consequence the sale was a speedy 10-day-turnaround with both parties being kept in the loop at all times.
Gary and Charles are experts in the local area too, so they're definitely worth a call if you're looking to sell (or buy) and their fees are very reasonable.
