Bear Estate Agents Reviews 

A pleasant experience I had with this agency, which know their work very well. Thank you very much for your support.

Leigh branch is shockingly bad.
We have had consistent issues with Megan at the Leigh branch who was supposedly progressing the sale. To this date we have had no more than 5 emails from her updating the chain since 1 October 2024. When called she ignores other estate agents in the chain, she's rude, unhelpful and deceitful. She willingly withheld information from the chain which related to the Land Registry, when caught out she blamed other estste agents in the chain for not asking her if there were any issues, and even her own clients came under fire! She seems to have missed the point of her role to feed information up to the next estate agent who in turn does the same.
Since then she will only look at the file and make one email follow up once per week. This has resulted in long delays and total confusion over the start of the chain on which she is supposedly managing. 5 properties in a chain we need to all be working together, everyone bar the first time buyer (Megan's client) have been ready to exchange since February. She has done nothing to help anyone along and will not answer the phone or return calls. She is worryingly listed as office manager, with her leading the ship it's no wonder most of the 1 star reviews relate to her office.

Stamp duty deadline has caused chaos for lots of people but it's no excuse for her abandoning the chain.

Any one can sell your house on rightmove but sales progssion is where you need to focus when picking an estate agent and I would avoid Bear Leigh like the plague.

Bear sold my housexwithin a week of going on the market. Leigh-Anne was outstanding sorting any issues that arose during the process. I can't praise the staff at Bear highly enough.

The team was fantastic during the whole process of selling our Hockley property and definitely recommend them !!!

This was a very streamlined service. From recommending a range of solicitors, to keeping me updated after viewings, and supporting me through the various stages of selling, the agents were always friendly and efficient. I would be happy to recommend them.

We just purchased our first home through Bear Estate agents Basildon and couldn't be more happier with service we received. Leigh-Anne was exceptional! Their communication was outstanding, always keeping us updated throughout the process. They arranged numerous viewings. Their market knowledge was invaluable, and they secured a great offer within a very short timeframe. We highly recommend Bear to anyone looking for a professional and reliable estate agent.

We were very disillusioned with estate agents in general when we got around to trying Bear. What a revaluation they were! Rob, George and Sydney were fantastic from start to finish, and did exactly what they promised. They got our property sold, and made it a stress free process. Thanks guys.

Bear made the selling process so straightforward from start to finish. I had a bad experience with the previous agent but had no reason to be worried with Bear.
Communication was excellent throughout and staff were always polite and professional. Special thanks goes to Rob, Ricky and Helen. I would also like to mention and thank Adam who did most of the viewings and always went above and beyond.
I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Really friendly, but professional team. Sold the property, reasonably quickly. Would recommend.

Bear have been absolutely incredible from start to finish. We had a painfully long house sale that lasted 9 months and have just recently completed. Leigh-Anne could not have been more helpful during this process, doing everything physically possible to get this sale through and even working on her days off to help. She answered the phone every time we called and would never not call us back if we missed each other. Everyone at bear has a great attitude and wants to help. Thank you Joe, Leigh-Anne and everyone at bear for being so amazing!!

Excellent experience! Made our purchase simple and straightforward. Leigh-Anne at Bear estate agent’s Basildon kept us very informed and made sure the sale went through smoothly. Always responded to calls and emails. On completion day EVERY SINGLE MEMBER of the team CELEBRATED with us at the office - they literally cheered us on! Can’t recommend them enough! Pure professionals.

Bear Estate agents ( Hockley branch ) kept us informed and updated thoughout what proved to be a challenging sale. Scott and Zoe lead a great team who have good local knowledge, great interpersonal skills and they genuinely listen to the concerns of their client to achieve a realistic sale for the benefit of all parties.
I thoroughly recommend them, Dave Ashpole

What a fantastic company and what great people were in all the different departments we came across. From the first meeting with Tony and the team at Bear, they listened to us. They were always on time for viewings, we felt they were frank, honest and very supportive all the way through the process. They answered any problems or queries immediately with useful, and we felt the correct feedback.We make a special mention for Marcos Lopez-Stacy who went above and beyond and worked relentlessly to help us sell our house when things got difficult in a very professional manner. we cannot recommend them highly enough.

Everyone we had contact with at Bear was polite, professional, friendly and helpful.
Zoe, one of the sales progressor team was exceptional. She went above and beyond in her efforts to complete our sale, and helped us through what proved to be an 8 month-long highly stressful and traumatic time.
"Well done, Zoe".
We would highly recommend Bear to anyone.

Bear Estate agents sold my house as soon as it went on the market with them. It had been on for 5 months with a previous agent with whom there was little response. Bear took new photos, used Drone footage and took the time to build the relationship needed between seller and agency to find me a buyer. They worked tirelessly throughout the procedure, dealing with the usual 'hiccups' of the chain along the way. They kept me up to date on a regular basis and were professional and friendly at all times. I felt I could ring them at any time with any questions and nothing was too much trouble for them. I would recommend this team in Hockley to anyone proposing to put their property on the market!

Knowledgeable courteous and helpful staff who worked with us throughout the sale.

Bear Estates managed the sale of our mum's bungalow in Hockley following her untimely passing. The team were both professional and sympathetic to our needs. They communicated in a timely and efficient manner keeping us fully informed at each stage of the sale.

Amazing estate agents, with you every step of the way!!
I found Bear estate agents, friendly, helpful at every stage & on the ball to get things done quickly

Sold our house via temme and douglas Allan all fell through. Bear do things different and sold our house with no issues. I'd only sell via bear and recommend them to all my family and friends. Great company great staff GO BEAR.

THANK YOU EVERYONE IN THE BASILDON OFFICE

This estate agent took all the stress out of selling my home by, taking most of the viewing’s while I was at work, updating me every step of the way with feedback from clients, 100% professional staff.
Nothing was ever too much trouble from selling to progression once sold. I would certainly recommend them to anyone!
