As the years rolled by the company was passed down to his sons, so the focus of the business changed towards the selling of property as well.
CJ Hole continued to prosper and today is a major force within the highly competitive estate agency market in the South West. Their excellent reputation has helped CJ Hole to expand within Bristol, Somerset and Gloucestershire so that there are now many branches serving the area.
Today, having sold property in three different centuries and as one of the oldest estate agents throughout Bristol, Somerset and Gloucestershire, CJ Hole is regarded as one of the most highly professional property firms in the region with a tradition of providing a first class service to its customers.
CJ Hole are constantly looking to build upon their reputation which will ensure that it continues to be a major force within the market place.

Following my initial review the agency had the courtesy to speak with me at my home. I now appreciate the errors made were an oversight due to unforseen circumstances. In consequence I feel future customers would be served well and the agency very understanding should their be any issues. As they are approachable and prepared to listen I would now award the 4 stars, no-one is perfect! ...
