I approached Bourne to act as my agents as they were a new company trying to establish themselves and I was very impressed by them when they came to value my property and discuss the sale. The valuations were correct and the advertising excellent. When Gemma took on the sale she actively pursued selling my property chasing people who would not normally consider my type of property and in the end it was a person who has disregarded the country cottage style in their searches who eventually bought the property - all because Gemma had convinced the buyer 'it was worth looking at'....

Gemma was incredibly proactive and innovative in making sure the sale was always moving forward. She liased with all parties in the chain including solicitors removing any barriers along the way and made sure there were no unnecessary delays - since everyone was working to tight deadlines

Our house was with another Guildford agent for 3 months. We had 30 viewings with approx 3 second viewings, and no offers despite being in a popular area. Property was with Bourne for 2 days - one prospective buyer requested a second viewing and the other person offered the full asking price after the first viewing. The customer service is excellent; they are very customer oriented, prompt to respond to queries and honest in their suggestions and advice. I would have no hesitiation in recommending them.

We have just exchanged contracts and purchased our new property through Bourne Estate Agentts in Alton. Gemma worked with us through the entire process and was helpful and responsive. Gemma offered good advice and helped to keep the whole process moving along to the point of exchange. Thank your for your assistance.

The process has been dealt with expertly and efficiently by Bourne, with feedback provided after most viewings. Any queries have been answered on a timely basis. They have given appropriate advice when required and generally ensured we knew all we needed to at each stage of the sale.

a thoroughly professional job - Bourne found me a good tennant and took away any stress whilst keeping me informed of any issues. Any time I needed to contact them they phoned or emailed me back within an hour or so. If I am a landlady in the future I will certainly use them again.

I was thoroughly impressed with how quickly Bourne Estate Agents informed me that my current tenants were leaving. A two month notice period did not prevent them from setting about re-letting the property immediately. Indeed they were successful on the first weekend of viewings so i have a secured tenant taking on the property as soon as the current tenants move out in just under two months time. Couldnt have asked for more i have to say. Excellent result, excellent service.

David Lowther was really supportive with my recent house purchase. I was being hassled by my landlord to give him a date and Bourne's stepped in to prevent him pressuring me to leave before I had a Completion Date. I particularly liked the "no hard sell" techniques used by Bourne which I had encountered with other Estate Agents in the area. Bourne's have even arranged to drop the keys off to me when I move in - what brilliant customer service is that? Well done Bourne's! You get 10/10 for customer service and efficiency from me!

We were extremely surprised and delighted how the sale process of our house was managed by the Farnham Branch of Bourne Estate Agents. We were undecided on what to do regarding which estate agents to use and there is more than sufficient choice in Farnham. Following an open and honest discussion with Stuart about our property, the market, and what Bourne Estate Agents could offer, we were persuaded to allow a limited number of prospective buyers to view the property, without the property being put on the open market. A second viewing resulted two days later, with an agreed offer following... (read more)

I had a few agents round to view my property and most were ok, not too excited about selling my property. But when Adrian from Bourne came round he was very enthusiastic about my property and my wife and I really sold into Adrian and Bourne estate agents. It only took about 2 weeks to sell my property which James was dealing with and it could not have gone smoother, great communication via email and telephone... I've had a few poor experiences by estate agents and Bourne by a mile stand out from the crowd and I would highly recommend to anyone. My wife and I are extremely satisfied customers. Thankyou Adrian and Bourne.

I reported damp and mould in the flat on the 20th November 2012.
Since then, incompetence has meant the problems remains and I still have no solution in sight. If you bear in mind this happened through the peak of winter It has been a painful and expensive experience.
I have had several inspections and one visit by the builders. They identified a broken brick as the potential problem but insofar they managed to damage a wall and then repair the wrong wall. A renewal with a rent increase was agreed in February on the condition of having the wall finally repaired. Last week I sent an email to the lettings director asking for firmer action and no answered has come my way.

Having been managed badly by another leading local estate agent prior to signing up with bourne, we were very sure about what we wanted from our estate agent. Throughout the time the sale of our house was managed by bourne, I cannot identify even one small fault with their customer service. They were very professional, realistic and clear and their communication was excellent. Even when a previous potential sale was being managed between two of their offices, both offices knew what the other were doing and were always up to date with their information and progression in terms of viewings. They were excellent throughout. I cannot see that you would get a better service anywhere else.

Having used a couple of other agents in the area, I must say I've been very pleasantly surprised by the service I've received from Bourne of Farnham. Always polite and efficient but most importantly (to me, at least); I always get to deal with the same person. This really does make a world of difference if problems arise. Highly recommended.

This company is very professional, friendly and helpful. All the staff are always willing to help and nothing is too much trouble. Dominic the Director heads a good team and I would not hesitate in recommending them. I needed to find a tenant and this was done within 24 hours and they sorted out all the paperwork and made it stress free for me. A special thank you to Clive who dealt with everything on my behalf. Whether you are selling or letting do get in touch with Bourne Estate Agents in Guildford as you will not be disappointed. Guildford client.

I have worked with Bourne Lettings for almost 3 years. They all know me within the Branch, even though I have a small portfolio. We had an incident recently caused by 'an act of god'. No one at fault. Bad things happen. What is important is how you deal with it. Bourne were excellent and really helped in any way possible. They are local, and they deal with matters at a local level - not offloading the issuing to 'another department some 50 miles away'. Having the Sales and property management teams close together is a plus. These things do matter.
I have no hesitation in recommending their services.

One particular agent was rude on the phone to me regarding my situation and ability to proceed.
The other outright lied to me. Wasted our time and money showing us around a property that had already sold through a rival agent. Told me a complete fabrication of a lie about the previous buyer having pulled out.
Called rival agent and was told that they (rival agent) had buyer for the property and the sale was going through.
I was pushed to make a high offer for Bourne to Gazump in a way the other agent.
Don't appreciate being lied to when trying to find first family home.

I found that Bournes were extremely Professional in everything they did. From returning phone calls
quickly, liaisoning with our buyers and all other Solicitors, In fact doing everything they should as Estate
Agents but which few other Agents achieve to do. They chased everyone up which helped enormously.Gemma was delightful to deal with and nothing was too much touble for her. Bournes have a real asset with her.However all the other people in their Alton office were good and instantly knew who you were and the state of play with your moving.An Estate Agent I would recommend to anyone. They sold our Bungalow which 3 other Agents failed to do

Property had been with another Estate Agent for 12 weeks with no development. Changed to Bourne Estates who managed to find a buyer within four days. We only dealt with two people, Adam and Millie, who were both friendly and efficient. Would certainly use Bourne Estate again if the occasion arose and would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone seeking an active Agent.

We have just exchanged contracts on our new property and would like to say how pleased we have been by the excellent service provided by all at the Alton office of Bourne Estate Agents.
We have moved many times before buying and selling properties through different estate agents and have been particularly impressed by the hard work and dedication of Andrew and Gemma Miller who have made an inevitably stressful time as painless as possible. They have been extremely helpful and supportive at all times and have responded immediately to our many communications, helping us with all our worries.
We would like to thank them for expertly steeering us through a more complicated than usual purchase and will have no hesitation in recommending them to family and friends and will certainly be using them for our next move.

Best estate agents in Alton by a country mile. Whilst other agents aim to sell by shoving as many people through the door as is humanly possible and hoping one of them buys (Homes), or just by screwing other agents over and feeding prospective buyers lies to suit heir own ends, Bourne operate extremely professionally and with courtesy.
Having had one nightmare of sale fall through, Bourne picked up the pieces and eventually sold the property. Thoroughly recommended.

We had an excellent experience using Bournes (Guildford) to sell our house. David and Dominic were helpful and communicative throughout the process and we never felt pressure in any part of the sale. We went only 6 weeks from sale to completion and that was partly down to their efforts and the good relationships they have with Guildford solicitors. Highly recommended.

Marco – we are so sorry to hear you have unresolved maintenance issues. We are looking into this immediately and we are obtaining a report from the contractors that attended the works. Our Director is on annual leave currently, hence no reply from him. We will contact you directly to discuss this. Lisa
I am the owner of the property mentioned in the comments and would like to set the record straight.Bourne Estate Agents have followed my instructions to the letter in their recent dealings with the sale of my house,in fact I only wish that I had used Bourne Services from the outset as I have found them incredibly proactive helpful and professional in their dealings
