AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!, rude, arrogant and condescending. They lied to us throughout, said there was no chain, only to find out a few weeks before completion that there was. They arrogantly tried to claim that a chain would make a difference. They pressured us and our solicitors to complete on a particular date, only to find out that the sellers had no idea about the completion date. They put all on the blame on us because we were first time buyers- so an easy target. this left us homeless for wee...

I have been actively investing in the Guildford property market since 2012 and I have used numerous estate agents. I have been most impressed with Bourne because they achieve very good results and I have a high level of confidence that they will perform. In particular I have found that Ross has a very good perception of the market dynamics and I have valued his frank advice. I wholeheartedly recommend Bourne - they really know what they are doing and they really care about doing it well....

Bourne were the agents for our vendor and despite a very stressful sale (mostly our fault due to circumstances beyond our control), they were patient, kind and very professional. Rob was informative and speedy getting back to us on any queries. Millie was unbelievable at getting the whole chain to exchange despite many hiccups along the way. She provided detailed updates - so useful at times of great stress! Our own agent in London selling our property said "there is a very switched on lady...

We recently sold our property through Bourne Estate Agents in Guildford and sadly the process from start to finish was incredibly negative. Our dealings with Ross were borderline confrontational and his attitude towards us AS CUSTOMERS was appalling. Throughout the entire process, my wife and I did not feel like 'the customer' and we received far greater service AND attitude from our sellers agents. From lack of communication following viewings to poorly managed buyers - the process was amateuri...

Dear Paul, I am devastated that you did not feel you got the service from us that you deserved - in my 30 years of estate agency I have never before received such comments but despite this; once is still too many in my view. I therefore wish to apologise if your interpretation of our service did not match your expectations as I am a great believer in dealing with all my customers as I would like to be dealt with myself. I would like to point out though that we did generate over 30 viewings and ...

Robert and the team put my property on the market which sold within two days, unfortunately due to circumstances beyond their control the sale fell through. I was delighted when only a few days after re-marketing my property they once again sold it, we have now exchanged contracts and completion is set for 8th July. Not only did they achieve the highest price quoted between three agents they also made the entire sales process painless. My thanks to Robert and the team for your assistance....

In Farnham, we have a lot of estate agents to choose from. Due to Bourne marketing most of the type of houses we were interested in, we bought and sold through Bourne. They were priced competitively and even though there was one or two wrinkle in the process, Rob was top notch at getting us back on track and into our new house....

Thank you for your comment on our All Agents review page, it's disappointing to hear that you haven't received the care and attention you would expected from our services, for which we apologise profusely. I am sure there are many reasons as to why, however, Bourne take all reviews constructively and professionally and will always endeavour to better ourselves based on experiences from customers and clients. We would appreciate the opportunity to rectify this and I would appreciate the time ...

We recently bought a property that was marketed through Bourne. We had a very difficult time with the chain below us and Gemma was fantastic in being really pro active, keeping on top of the process the whole way and most of all being very reassuring. Something that was sincerely lacking in the agents we were using to sell our property. I wish we had used Bourne and will certainly use them in the future. Above all, I want honesty, transparency and efficiency from an agent and I think Bourne stri...

Jon was always available for additional viewing for us and was always on the end of the phone or email answering any questions we had.

Had a great experience with Bourne estate agents, Alton. The viewing was great and we fell in love with the property instantly. There was no hard selling and felt I could freely walk around the house. Knew the area very well. Moved in within a week of viewing. Was a quick service and was happy to deal with any questions. Will be using them again if needed!...

I've just read the post left by "KM" and felt I had to have my say. Let me state from the outset, I'm a real customer of Bourne in Alton. They handled the sale of my father's property in March 2015 and subsequent move to Alton I rarely review anything online, but the comment by "KM" couldn't be further from the experience we had with Bourne, so I wanted to lend some perspective. They handled the sale of an unusual, but not straightforward period property and subsequent purch...

I originally placed my property on the market with another agent in the town and they were unsuccessful in selling my property. Bourne were excellent at ensuring that the right potential buyer viewed my property and they were fully aware of the details of the property before arranging a viewing. Their communication from instruction through to completion of the sale has been exceptional and would highly recommend anyone considering selling their property to instruct Bourne Estate Agents.

Having had a bad experience with another agent,I switched to Bournes. What a revelation. The whole team are dynamic,positive and a pleasure to deal with. From the very first instance I got the feeling that my business was very important to them.Their brochures are first class. I felt that they were really on the ball and kept me constantly updated with developments. My house had been on the market for months and yet they sold it in the first week of their involvement. They are very professional...

I am trying to deal with the above comments and must stress at this point that no complaint has been made to the offices to deal with. Furthermore Damian Hartigan does not deal with customers so I am not sure why his name has been mentioned. Finally if the tenant has been put in contact with the landlord it will because the agreement is for Let Only service and we are not managing the property. As with any issues we are happy to investigate fully and assist where possible in finding a solution b ...

Bourne estate agents are one of the most professional agents I've dealt with. Their honest, pragmatic and sensible approach to helping us sell our house was a breath of fresh air compared to many in Alton. Throughout the sale process Bourne had our best interests at heart and nothing was every too much of an issue they even helped with all the pre-sales paperwork and never-ending enquiries from the buyer's solicitor. Everyone at Bourne was aware of our sale so when Gemma was out on viewings some...

From the time Andrew came to do the valuation until the sale was completed we could not have asked for better service. We have lived here for nearly thirty years so did not really know what to do or expect. Gemma could not have been more helpful, from recommending a conveyanceing solicitor to calming our nerves when a member of the chain started trying to delay things, Gemma was always on the end of the phone to sort us, and anybody else out. We would thoroughly recommend Bournes for first rate ...
