I was recommended to Bear by my mortgage broker. I was given an excellent sales pitch with my interest being piqued with a 'sales progressor'.
I was buying and selling through Bear so potentially more focus was on me due to 2 lots of commission pending.
During a viewing I raised concerns with Bear around elements which had been missed which were causing delays and information had not been checked by the sales progressor. The agent verbally agreed it was unacceptable, I wasn't the first to raise these issues and they would pass on my points.
I continued to get calls from the sales progressor which felt hassling as there was no new information, they werent chasing what was needed and the relationship began to break down. I sent an email with feedback to the same agent who I initially raised my concerns to who then completely dismissed my points. They were very defensive and it was a complete turnaround. We came to a decision I would change my sales progressor. The anxiety I was experiencing from dealing with the person alongside sorting out issues with the sale was too much.
Days later I was extremely perplexed when the same sales progressor continued to email me which increased to calls like nothing had happened.
I did not raise the issue again for it to be dismissed.
I was very clear in my feedback that my sale was in hand, I was onto my solicitor daily and had been all through the process. I did not need Bear contacting me with out of date information or no information. I advised Bear to keep an eye on other parties because I was more than capable of driving this sale / purchase like I had been all along. This message obviously didn't filter through as I continued to get calls. A waste of my time and the sales progressor.
The evidence suggests my points werent shared and totally dismissed.
Bear perhaps need to remember there are people who are capable to complete a sale and not to dismiss people's ability so quickly.
I did recommend them to my friend who also faced issues and went to another company.
I gave Bear the opportunity to rectify the issues but they didn't.
Very disappointing, I wouldn't use them again or recommend them. I paid for a service which I didnt feel I got and added to my stress!... Read more

The stand out person in the team , for me, was Megan . This girl is amazing !

We recently purchased our home through Bear and we cannot recommend them enough, in particular Megan who was on hand from start to finish. Megan went above and beyond with the seemingly simple questions as well as the "official" ones which made no sense and just required simplifying. Nothing was too much for Megan and would call both my wife and I with updates or send us both emails, at no point did we feel like we were left in the dark and we felt like Megan was always putting us first when she no doubt had other clients to support as well! Megan we can't thank you enough for making what is known as a stressful situation, so much easier. You are a superstar!... Read more

We started with other agents, but Bear got us under offer within a month. From there, it was a tough road, but they never gave up.

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!

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

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.

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
