Bushnell Porter Avis 113

Bushnell Porter Provided a very professional service on a house sold via probate. Both Marcus and David were communicative with both me, the buyers and solicitors to keep the sale process moving right through to the sale completion. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to any buyers or sellers.

100% recommend!! We had the pleasure of David supporting us through buying our first house and made the experience seamless, exciting and personal. He was approachable, professional and enthusiastic from our first viewing to completion.

David was contactable by phone or email throughout the process. He answered all of our questions and provided regular progress updates which was lovely and reassuring. What was even more wonderful, was that anyone in their office was willing to answer our queries and were very personable and friendly.

David went above and beyond the call of duty, remaining in constant contact with both ours and the sellers' solicitors to ensure that the transaction progressed as quickly and smoothly as possible. We are incredibly grateful for his efforts and we are sure the sellers would agree that he helped make the process as easy as possible for us both.

Having had negative experiences with several other estate agents, Bushnell Porter have restored our faith in the profession.

When we come to sell our house, we will most certainly be requesting the services of Bushnell Porter.

We love our new home and are settling in nicely. Thank you to all the team at Bushnell Porter especially, David.

The service we received was faultless. Tim was excellent throughout our purchase. He demonstrated honesty, integrity and a clear passion for his work. It was a refreshing change from our recent dealings with other agents in our search for a home.

Marcus and his team at Bushnell Porter have been exceptional in selling my home and helping me acquire a new home in difficult circumstances. I had purchased my home in this area many years ago; originally through Bushnell Porter and had asked Marcus for advice on a couple of occasions whilst we resided there.
So, when it came to selling the house, he was an obvious candidate but being fiscally aware, I asked a number of local, national and internet estate agents to provide valuations and their associated costs to sell. Without being too disparaging and going into detail, the majority of candidates were rather underwhelming.
I chose Marcus based on a number of considerations……well established, independent and local; an impressive detailed market knowledge, his obvious motivation, honesty and integrity in his valuation; whilst his pragmatic approach, reasoning and ability to justify his opinions were plausible, realistic and accurate. Besides, he was the most competitive…….
We marketed our house and in a seller’s market; it attracted a lot of interest and sold to a reliable purchaser. The timescales involved were very tight to move quickly and accordingly save money on stamp duty tax relief. However, Marcus being “streetwise” offered timely, pragmatic advice that I followed and acted upon immediately; whilst he liaised, cajoled and coordinated with solicitors, searches and other estate agents to facilitate the move within the time frame. I firmly believe that his experience and instinct in these matters were critical. His direct involvement ensured we saw the transactions pass within the short time frame and consequently save money on unnecessary tax. His determination and drive are admirable.
On the other hand, procuring a property was far more challenging. Without doubt, Marcus and his team showed great empathy, care and understanding and amazingly they found me a property, that had at one time seemed unlikely. Indeed, his ability to negotiate and liaise are exemplary and I would have no hesitation to recommend his estate agency, Bushnell Porter, should you think of selling or purchasing a property in this area.
I cannot fault Bushnell Porter with their help and their reassuring advice and they have been prompt and thorough in all my dealings with them. No overpromising, no wild claims, just honest, friendly and compassionate care at an excellent price.
I’ve moved a few times. They are the best estate agency I have had to deal with.

DME December 2021

Selling a property can be stressful and painful enough, but having a good Estate Agent is a huge help. Both Marcus and David were invaluable throughout our sale and purchase. Due to various reasons beyond both our and Bushnell’s control our sale took almost a year to complete. Within that time we lost two purchases due to gazumping by other estate agents and also lost a buyer, but Marcus and David kept with us throughout. They were both incredibly supportive both of us and our eventual buyer, who was willing to persist with us to the end and eventually get the house she wanted. Bushnell’s understanding of the local area was invaluable and helped us finally get the house we now live in.
Would I recommend Bushnell Porter? Absolutely, and without hesitation. Would I use Bushnell Porter again? Most certainly.

Marcus and David offer an excellent service. Marcus was my agent and if it hadn’t been for Marcus’s hardwork my chain would have fallen through on my sale. Marcus had clear and good communication. Very professional would recommend Bushnell Porter to anyone wishing to sell or purchase a property. Many thanks

Without hesitation Bushnell Porter offer exceptional service! David went above and beyond throughout the whole process, seamlessly efficient! Communicated at every step with all parties and kept me informed at every stage. These guys easily overcome any obstacles and a real credit to the industry . Thank you so much !

Waste of time dealing wit h as their customer service is non existent. No reply to emails or chats posted on their website. Best steer clear of their products.

Marcus, David and Lucy are a pleasure to deal with when either selling or buying your home. The local knowledge these guys have is incredible, they seem to know everyone in the industry, This is particularly helpful as they can usually get answers to any questions or problems which come up quite quickly as they have so many contacts. I have used Bushnell Porter now for both buying and selling and would not hesitate to use them again. I thoroughly recommend them. The amount of work they do especially in the final stages makes you realise the value they bring to the process.

I don't often write reviews but felt compelled to do so after dealing with Tim Kingsbury of Bushnell Porter Estate Agents in Southsea.

Having seen a house I fancied I booked to have a viewing and this was the first time I met Tim. I have to say I'm weary of certain professions where stigmatism can be present. We can sometimes have preconceived ideas of how someone may be. I viewed the house and thought nothing much about my interaction with Tim that was pretty standard. As the weeks went by I had another viewing of the property which I found out was in probate. I got to communicate with Tim fairly regularly as the property ended up going to a sealed envelope bid.

I got the house and continued working with Tim until the sale went through and contracts exchanged.

I can be fairly critical of matters and don't provide praise back light heartedly but I will say that Tim Kingsbury was amazing. Communication was excellent, updates were excellent, Tim's commitment to supporting me was excellent. Good honest advice was given and Tim's experience shone through. He really is a credit to his profession and dispelled any preconceived ideas I held about estate agents. Tim worked tirelessly to ensure the sale went through and for this I'd like to thank him and his team at Bushnell Porter. I would highly recommend Bushnell Porter and wouldn't think twice about returning fit future business.

Many thanks.

S. Roberts.

With Tim Kingsbury and the team at Bushnell Porter, Southsea, you get a truly personal service! Their market and industry knowledge is unsurpassed.

They helped us sell our old house and buy our new house.

Despite a few challenges with our chain, buying and selling through a pandemic, we achieved 100% of the valuation price. We were kept fully informed throughout, which made the conveyancing process more efficient and helped us complete within our timescales.

I honestly have not been able to find a single aspect of their service I can criticise: Knowledge, Diligence, Timeliness, Communication, Fairness, Integrity. - All great.

Tim helped us to buy our "forever home" in a location we never dreamed would be possible.

I totally trust Tim and the team at Bushnell Porter and would recommend to anyone reading this review that your search for an agent is over. - Instruct them to sell your property. You won't regret it.

Don’t look elsewhere. Without David Holloway and Bushnell Porter our chain would have collapsed. David went above and beyond to get things sorted and we have moved with Bushnell Porter twice and they have helped us find our dream home. Other estate agents locally wine and dine you then drop you so you are left to sort everything yourself (Some well known ones in Liphook and Alton especially like to do this, our chain ended up not speaking to their own estate agents and all dealing with David as he was the only one prepared to get things done!!) David is tacking things in a different way one sale at a time. If you want honesty in an industry full of liars go no further. Top work. Well done Bushnell Porter keep pushing for excellence!

I purchase my first home 27 years ago from BP and this year they sold it for me. Great all round service, superb knowledge of the area, great to deal with.

Very professional from start to finish. Marcus was a pleasure to deal with and kept us well informed and provided advice where necessary. Highly recommend.

David and the team at Bushnell Porter were professional,friendly and helpful at all times and found an excellent buyer for my property within just a couple of days. I would strongly recommend them to anyone considering selling their property in the Bordon area.

We only have good things to say about bushnell porter. Before we found our first home, we was always made time for to view houses and notified of new houses on the market that would suit us! They was always patient and understanding about what we was looking for. Once we found our home, we was always kept in the loop about what was going on in the chain and David went out of his way to make sure the sale happened! We would definitely recommend to others and will be using them in the future when we decide to move! Thank you bushnell.

Excellent agent
Good communication
Straightforward to deal with
Happy to do business with them again
Was looked after by David who was available and knowledgeable

We experienced a first class service for the sale of our house with Bushnell Porter. From the beginning their approach was honest, professional and efficient. At no time did I feel patronised and the staff were always courteous, empathetic, helpful and respectful. I was particularly impressed with the way that extra time was spent in following things up, answering queries and helping to keep things moving when they became tricky. Marcus has huge experience in the property sector and a complete understanding of all the processes involved. This agency deserves to maintain the very good reputation it has established.

David, Marcus and Lucy managed the sale of our bungalow with courtesy, efficiency and total professionalism.

We both sold and bought with Busnell Porter recently for the second time. The whole team went above and beyond, chasing the whole chain to keep us up to date with everything that was going on and ensuring it ran as smoothly as possible. When we lost our buyer they were quick to show our property to other potential buyers and sold our house again in no time! Would definitely use them again for any future moves!
