Working with Debbie and the Ocean team was an absolute pleasure. As a first-time homebuyer, I was prepared for a stressful experience, but Debbie made the entire process easy and straightforward. Communication was seamless; I always felt comfortable discussing any questions or concerns openly, and Debbie's transparency gave me confidence every step of the way. The team was incredibly efficient, and I never felt rushed or pressured into making decisions too quickly. Thank you for making this milestone so smooth and enjoyable!

Jack was very professional, polite and courteous. He showed us around our new home and answered all questions as well as gave some suggestions on furnishings which was much appreciated. My experience with Oceans Lettings and their agents is always professional and efficient and I would highly recommend them.

Fantastic Service from Ocean Letting!
Ocean Letting has been absolutely amazing in helping us secure our new flat in Bristol! Huge shoutout to Jack — he’s been so friendly, quick to reply, and always there to answer all our questions. Honestly, as a tenant and professional, clear communication is everything, and Jack nails it every time. It’s been so easy working with him, and he’s made the whole process a breeze!
Chantelle and Scott have also been super helpful, making the whole experience feel seamless. Can’t wait to move in this November! I’m thinking about leaving another review once we’ve have started our move-in process and we’re all settled in. Highly recommend Ocean Letting if you’re looking for a reliable and friendly team! :)

I worked with Ocean Bishopston to sell my flat and even though it was sometimes a bit unclear as my agent changed part way through i was very happy with the comms and care after that. Also, the photography is excellent. Melissa was great and kept me informed throughout and i also felt that she genuinely understood and cared about the stress sellers and buyers are under. Debbie West, who was the move manager, was an absolute rock. She was the magic that made my sale and our complex purchase line up smoothly. It did not feel like there was much integration with Ocean conveyancers who sometimes had info later than Debbie and I and at one point it was Debbie’s proactive approach that progressed some miscommunication on the legal side. I felt like she cared for all parties involved. She was a real do-er, had a personable approach and was good humoured.
I was surprised that the conveyancing process and estate agent side of things was not as efficiently lined up compared to how it was sold to us, hence four instead of five stars.The lawyers on my buyers side as well as our purchase side were reachable by phone and tended to respond swiftly, whereas Ocean Legal is pretty much email only and there is little guidance and a strict hierarchy system which means you will never get to speak to the actual conveyancing lawyer listed on your portal for trickier questions. The legal assistants on the different cases were friendly and professional, but it did not feel like there was a relationship, more a process to get through. So i would absolutely recommend Ocean estate agents Bishopston to sell, but if you are a person who likes to be proactive about the legal process and understand the why and how and have the option to discuss options, then you might get a bit frustrated with Ocean Conveyancing who sometimes made us feel like we were bothering them.

I had the pleasure of being showed round my now beautiful home by Melissa, she was warm and friendly whilst also being professional and knowledgeable about the property - I had been searching for a house for nearly 2 years and I have to say Melissa is one of the best estate agents I have met! I went to view the house a couple of times before completing and any additional queries I had were quickly acted on and resolved. Throughout the buying process Debbie was the liaison manager between all parties, she was responsive, always kept me up to date and no ask was ever too much. To top it all off, on the day I got the keys I was greeted with a package of goodies to have in my home! For anyone in the market for a new home or their first home (like me) I can highly recommend Ocean Estate Agents Bishopston!

I recently needed to let out my home due to a job related move. As this is my first home, letting it out was an emotional and stressful decision. Ocean were brilliant and patient with me throughout the process while I was getting things sorted. Scott explained everything and was very communicative for the initial set-up and passed things over to Chantelle who has been just fantastic. Super professional and helpful with all queries and worked with me to get the flat on the market and secured nice tenants. Overall, a very positive experience.

We bought our first flat through Ocean Bishopston. Kiera who showed us multiple flats, was punctual, kind and really helpful in helping us get our offer secured on our flat. Debbie was who then helped us deal with the progress of our sale. She was always happy to speak to us on the phone, quick to answer emails and helped make the daunting process of buying our first place a lot easier.

The vendor I purchased my flat from used Ocean Bishopston. It has been a very good experience from my perspective. Responsive, polite and proactive team. I happened to use Ocean Solicitors as well (from a different branch), likewise, great experience, good Comms, proactive. Will definitely use Ocean in the future.

Ahh they live in the back pockets of the landlords they advertise for. This picture is the one from our “check in” report which they are now using to “accurately” assess how clean we’ve left the oven. The second picture is how clean we left the oven. They have told us it will cost £260 to clean.
Another super fun thing, Ocean are also trying to charge us the cost of removal of the tumble drier which they are SUPER 100% SURE was left to us by the previous tenant, but they can’t provide any actual proof of this. But they just “know” it’s true, and we apparently have to just accept that??
Horrible horrible experience the entire time we rented with them. We got pulled up on a rent inspection for having our plates from breakfast in the sink. Absolutely ridiculous and power hungry. They work for landlords, don’t forget that.

Unfortunately we would not recommend Ocean Estate Agents, Bishopston. This is due to a lack of detail, communication and pro-activeness. Also we felt that the branch did not take the time to get to know us and our needs. This was in stark contrast to our seller's estate agents. Debbie who joined the team towards the end of our sale was good and we would recommend her but not the branch in general.
We also used Ocean Property Lawyers, Bishopston. Dimitri was great and we would definitely recommend Dimitri, but again we unfortunately would not otherwise recommend the firm.
We will be picking up our specific concerns with Ocean directly.

I had a very positive experience with Ocean in purchasing a house. The Bishopston office seems to have a cohesive team of quality professionals all of whom I always enjoyed chatting with. They are pragmatic, well organised and personable. Particular thanks should go to Kiera Burrows, whose empathic and calm approach made this rather stressful purchase much less so. Top set of people, thoroughly recommend.

I don't know where to start with my experience with Ocean, but more specifically Chantelle, who has helped us through the whole letting process. From securing a place to let, to communicating to the landlord promptly and efficiently, to just being a really friendly person to email. It has made the entire process much less stressful - she has gone out her way to help with any questions/queries, and we couldn’t be more excited to move in. We’ve been to viewings with other Letting agents who were plainly rude and uninterested, but you will not find this with Ocean. I couldn’t be more delighted with how things have worked out and I will be spreading the word to other house hunters. Thank you!!

Jason, Matt and the rest of the team have been great - always helpful, understanding and professional. They swiftly secured the photographer before he went on leave so we could get our photos done without delay. Jason made sure the whole team visited to learn the interesting features our house, so everyone could properly describe it to potential buyers. The back-to-back viewings were organised efficiently, giving people proper time to look around without feeling rushed, and I felt our home was in good hands during the viewings. I would definitely recommend Ocean Bishopston to anyone looking to sell their house in this area.

I recently sold my family home using the services of Ocean Bishopston. The team there were fantastic right from the start, beginning with Jason and sales. Everyone was very efficient and communication was excellent. I’d particularly like to thank Matt and Nicola for being so amazingly supportive throughout the process. I felt Matt really understood what I was looking for in terms of a new house and was always kind and friendly. Whenever I felt overwhelmed, Nicola encouraged me and provided me with the support I needed. It really felt as if we were a team. They have the perfect mix of professionalism and warmth.
All in all, I highly recommend Ocean Bishopston and their staff.

Rented a property through Ocean and overall was a good experience. However upon end of my tenancy returned my keys and got an email over 10 days later to ask if i had returned the keys which surprised me considering we were told a representative from Ocean will visit the property the day the tenancy ended to carry out a check-out report and we would be charged £120 if we weren't ready to vacate. Which led to an unnecessary delay in returning my deposit.

She is responsive, helpful, professional and very approachable, nothing was too much for her. I probably asked her 100s of stupid questions, but was not made to feel like it! As far as the company, they made a very professional ad for our house, fantastic photography that brought out its best features, floor plan and seamless viewings process. I knew that Kayla would represent our beloved home very well. Would definitely use them again.

They really know the market, are honest, helpful and provide great service, at all stages of the process.

Her communication was always impeccable and she kept us updated on the progress of things the whole way. Can’t thank you and the Ocean team enough ????

Our experience with Ocean:
We have been in a property managed by Ocean in Bishopston since 2019. In 2019 when we moved in we found out that the water from the bathroom from the first floor was going down to the kitchen in the ground floor, we have to clean and dry every time, it’s disgusting! We complained to have the issue fixed in 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 we have complained many times, none of the staff managing the property seemed to care as now in 2023 we continue with the problem. We even contact Ocean director Paul Harris, we thought that contacting him, he would listen and try to tell his staff to act faster, but looks like he is even worse than his staff he cared even less.
Talking by my experience, If you are a tenant: management service is terrible, if you have issues, or you fix and pay them yourself, or don’t expect that they would help with the problem.
If you are a landlord: the management fees are way to high, other estate agents offer full management for less than 10% and better service.
(Ocean avoid to send automatic replies in here to make you look good and to show that you care, because you are not. Ocean in Bishopston is aware of the issues, what they need to do is work more efficiently and fix tenant issues and not make tenants wait for years)

I had a really positive house sale experience with the Ocean, Bishopston team. We had a very very short timeline that we needed to achieve so from the initial photo arrangements and pricing discussions with Jason, through to the marketing and sale with the amazing Ella (worked really hard, always kept in touch and responded to questions really quickly, plus really nice to work with), time was of the essence. Fortunately we managed to find the perfect buyer in a time when the market was a bit unstable just after the notorious ‘Liz Truss’ mini budget and the sale went through perfectly. This was also aided in a large part by Ocean Property Lawyers (right next door to the estate agents) who did a good job in getting the sale through in record time.

I have finally reached the end of a very stressful sale and purchase through Ocean which, for reasons beyond our control including the sudden change in the market, was extremely long and complicated. However, Ocean stuck with me throughout, and I am glad to say that there was a happy ending. They know their market very well, and put many hours into achieving this outcome. I would recommend their service.

I can genuinely say that this has been the best interaction I have ever had with estate agents.
We were buying our new home with Ocean, and we were more in touch with them than our own estate agents, and our solicitors!
Over the period of 8 months, we went through a series of unforeseen events, and Bea was there for us every step of the way. She kept in regular contact with constant updates, solutions to problems, and providing me a shoulder to cry on at times.
I honestly cannot express how helpful Bea was, and how much easier she made this (rather stressful) process. Thank you so much!

A friendly, knowledgeable and supremely professional team. I feel confident and reassured knowing my house and my tenants are in such good hands.
I needed to leave Bristol but didn't want to sell up, so I'm letting my house through Ocean as a first-time landlord. I cannot thank the Bishopston lettings team enough for all their help, advice and patience.
Wes and Chantelle deserve specific mentions. When I leave something with them, it gets done, no chasing up necessary! They are both lovely people and incredibly good at their jobs. Letting out my home was a bit emotional, and there was obviously a lot of paperwork I had no experience with, and they've been great on both fronts. I never feel rushed talking through decisions.
I can tell they're taking good care of my tenants, which is very important to me; it doesn't feel like now they've moved in, it's job done. Their attention to detail is excellent.
Thanks so much Wes and Chantelle! :)

Had a 6 month followed by rolling tenancy agreement, was contacted 2 months in with a statement of 'your tenancy is due to expire and we cannot secure an extension' and was asked to sign into a second fixed term.. i said i was happy with the rolling period set out in the existing contract.. was threatened with eviction for this. fast forward to best part of a year later.. i move out and leave the house immaculate.. false statements in the check out inventory where items noted as missing but clearly visible in their pictures. landlords & ocean now dragging their heels in even discussing return of deposit and details.. let alone actually returning it. Had the unfortunate luck of getting assigned Mirela as account/tenancy manager never had such a condesending an incompetent person deal with any tenancy in the last two decades and 10 properties. Avoid like the plague! They're just in business to serve the landlord and seem to treat tenants with contempt.

No one ever answers the phone. They avoid answering any of the issues you have over email and promise to "get on top of it" but do nothing until you email them again. Rinse and repeat. A number of serious problems have not been fixed in 6 months. Broken glass on the stairs when we moved in. Damp, broken fireplace panel, broken curtains. Took 3 months and over 60 emails for them to finally cave in and fix a few cracked tiles. AVOID.

My recent experience of navigating a route through the complexities of the property market was greatly improved by the consistently helpful service I received from Jordan Gingell at Ocean Estate Agents in Bishopston, who acted on behalf of the vendors of the property I was purchasing.
With an unfailingly cheerful approach, Jordan maintained regular contact with me, making helpful suggestions during the negotiating process and keeping me informed of the progress within the chain.
I would have no hesitation in recommending him to future customers.

I am a bit ambivalent with this review. On one hand Ocean / Kayla was really nice and helpful, on the other hand they use "The Lettings Hub" as a contractor which are a pain to deal with and I cannot really recommend anybody using that contractor. Cant bring myself to give a bad rating since that's not the fault of this branch I guess

I called this estate agent to ask for their advice about renting a property and met a very professional and friendly man called Gerald.He gave great advice and has followed up are meeting to discuss this matter.I also had another member of the team Martin who was also excellent with regards to selling my property.So far the service has been very good.I have tried other companies in the past who are mostly fast talkers and there it ends .I want great service and so far I have received it.Thank you.

I and the PofA for Finance were selling my sister's house on her behalf and were both working from distance. The process was seamless with Ocean Estate Agents, and in particular Ella Peacey was exceptionally helpful, efficient and patient with the problems we had due to distance/email etc. She was also very kind and understanding of the sorrow caused by such a situation, and put us in touch with the buyers who were equally sympathetic. This was an extra which will stay with me imagining the new owners in my sister's house. I can find no fault, only praise.

Worst letting agent in bristol. The state agent was late to show us round the flat, with no appology. After we submitted our application they didn't get back to us at all and had to be chased up continually.

Hi, we recently used Ocean to find a tenant for a property. They were very friendly, responsive, professional, knowlegeable and speedy about everything. They found a tenant for us in a really short space of time. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again - highly recommend!

I would like to specifically comment on Kayla Surtherland's handling of the recent letting of my property. She has been very pro-active, answering queries in a timely and helpul manner and went beyond the call of duty to facilitate my requirements as I am not able to visit the property myself. I would certainly recommend her to anyone considering letting their property. Ocean are not cheap, but in this instance, the result outweighed the expense!

Wes and Kayla have made our process so smooth and they've both been extremely responsive to all our enquiries. I'm so happy with Ocean Lettings helping us find the right property and providing us with all the information to submit an application so quickly. In comparison to other Bristol Lets this has been by far the best. Looking forward to moving in. Thank you ever so much to you all again.

My partner and I let with Ocean for 2 years. We were in desperate need of a place due to many agents not willing to let non-student properties to students. Ocean gave us a chance and throughout they were fantastic to deal with. They helped with finding good utilities deals and whenever we had an issue (rarely) they were prompt to respond and deal with it. Honestly can't fault the service and it was so refreshing to not have an issue with estate agents! Special thanks to Scott for making our move out process stress-free.

We have been really impressed with the professional service received from Ocean. In particular, we found their knowledge of our property went a long way, and the photos used were of a high standard. Jason and Ella have provided helpful guidance and have been extremely responsive. Ella would be kind enough to let us know as soon as the viewing had finished and would keep us updated very regularly; it’s these small touches that make a big difference. Our property went on the market in a really uncertain time but we were very pleased to accept an offer today, within just a couple of weeks of putting it on the market.

being new to the Bristol market, it was hard to determine which agent to use so a range were contacted. Ocean were by far the best agents and were very helpful in all respects. The agents were well informed and could answer a range of questions when conducting the viewings. Often I have found that some questions to agents require a follow up email when it should be a simple answer but this was not the case with Ocean, all their agents were knowledgeable and very helpful.
There communication was exemplary and the properties they presented met our requirements very well allowing for us to make a considered decision. could not recommend more highly.

I was looking to rent a Room during lockdown after finishing University. This was my first time renting a professional house, and it was quite daunting at first, as I'm new to the whole process. But Lily Edwards made the whole situation so much easier, she walked me through everything step by step, we had a constant stream of communication and everything was super easy and stress free! Everything has been set up so it is contact free and I can comfortably and safely move into my new home within weeks of contacting the agents!

Can't believe the behaviour of this estate agents - my friends (might I add who have a young baby) have been waiting for their deposit for nearly 3 months now. Ocean have taken weeks to reply to each email, if they bother at all! They have had to take it further now with the TDA, trading standards and citizens advice. I'd suggest you sort your act out Ocean! Absolutely ridiculous!!!!! This is their money that you are with-holding, originally without giving any reason why for a couple months and now not even working through the disputes. I will be telling everyone I know never to ever rent or buy from you and to tell all their friends and family the same.

Im currently a tenant and feel let down by ocean. They are very slow to respond to queries and often dont reply to emails. We have been left with a broken shower for over a year and have been waiting almost a month for our washing machine to be fixed. Our house has consistently had damp which they knew about before we have moved in yet only ever seem to paint over the problem rather than fix it. Looking forward to moving out and not having to deal with agents in the future.

Didn't feel looked after as a tenant. One of the properties we rented had an issue with a blocked toilet that we tried very hard to resolve before contacting the estate agent, who was managing the property. We were advised that they would send someone round to take a look at the issue but very clearly stated upfront that if it was our fault, that we would pay for it, which really added quite a lot of stress and made the situation seem like it was all about the money rather than our quality of life. When it transpired that it wasn't our fault but rather a structural issue, they proceeded to unblock the toilet but then never bothered to sort out the underlying problem, which I believe would probably have required scaffolding and I expect deemed too expensive.
The bathroom also got very mouldy over winter and the advice that we got given was to have the heating on full blast and all the windows open to ventilate...
These problems were quite upsetting and we left the flat as soon as we could. I feel sorry for whomever has been living there since.
Sorry, Ocean. You certainly did not float my boat.

I have just purchased my first flat through Ocean and it was a long journey getting to this point, the first flat I went to buy fell through after 5 months this was due to the sellers and no fault of Ocean who handled the situation very well, they recommended another property which I loved and then were extremely efficient in getting process completed.
Particular mentions need to go to Jordan Gingell, Kristie Melino, Kenny Naish , Laura Pamplin and Lauren Maund who are all fantastic at their jobs . Thank you Ocean you have been fantastic !!

As those who have done it know, the process of searching for, arranging viewings and eventually purchasing a property can be a bit of a stressful affair.
From start to finish, Ocean Estate Agents (Bishopston branch) have been nothing but exemplary - with special mention to the agent I have been dealing with, Nick. His insight, friendliness and understanding have proved incredibly valuable and I look forward to completing a purchase through him!
Having dealt with many different estate agencies in both the Bristol and London areas, I can certainly recommend Ocean Bishopston highly.

Amazing, efficient and incredibly helpful throughout. I have used many lettings agencies in Bristol, all with their frustrations and issues. However Ocean were a breathe of fresh air. Not only were they helpful, polite and kept in touch every single step of the way. They also went above and beyond what was needed. They took the stress away from moving and gave us re-assurance and trust that we could leave things to them without having to chase information.
Can't recommend enough!

Similar to other comments left, I have rarely experienced worse service or less intelligent employees. When I was asked to come in to sign the relevant paperwork to begin a tendency, I got and eye roll and a 'tut' every time I had a question about what I was being expected to sign.
The charge to replace a tenant is almost comically high.
The third party right to rent check is complete by an almost entirely incompetent team (and mine was simple!). My house mate is self employed, and asked his grantor to get a grantor.
And finally, every time I had a question, the reply I would get was essentially, 'just do what we say'.
If you have any other option, definitely take it over this branch and preserve a regular blood pressure.

We are landlords of 2 properties that we have rented out through ocean bishopston. They have always managed to find suitable tenants in a timely manner, and all the paperwork has been completed efficiently and professionally. The staff are always polite and courteous and a pleasure to deal with. A few years back whilst working abroad, they also rented and managed our own property for a couple of years and whenever the tenant had issues they were brought to our attention and resolved in good time - I certainly would recommend ocean very highly.

Style over substance - Ocean’s Bishopston office is the epitome of this.
Don’t let the swish office and cheap suits fool you - under the surface it’s obvious that this office is rife with disorganisation, a lack of communication and zero respect for its clients.
During our 2 years renting a property from Ocean, we had the “pleasure” of 2 property “managers”.
Both were more than useless - I can’t decide whether this was because they are absolutely inundated with a high workload, or because they simply couldn’t care less about the condition of the properties they let.
Communication was slow and frustrating - we would often have to chase via email and phone call numerous times to resolve a problem.
During our final 6 months in the property there was a substantial rat infestation in the cavity wall and attic of the property - the pest controller visited 6 times and failed to resolve the problem. The attitude of the property manager was that nothing more could be done and we had to live with it - an amazing lack of respect towards ourselves and the landlord of the property.
If anything, this abysmal experience gave us a well needed kick to get out of renting and to buy a property - I’m so grateful that I no longer contribute £1000 a month towards a greedy landlord and an even more greedy letting agency.
