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.

I am sorry to hear that you are not happy with the service you have received. If the property is single glazed this shouldn't cause condensation in the rooms themselves, so we can investigate the cause (if this has not been done previously) and/or give you some more information on how to avoid condensation occurring. If you would like to discuss this further please call me on 01454 626300. ...

I am sorry that you feel this way. When I spoke to you the morning after you had viewed the property and given us your offer details, I explained the implications that your adverse credit agreement would have on your ability to pass referencing with us and to be accepted by a potential Landlord. I also said that adverse credit was not uncommon and offered you advice on how you may be able to proceed in order for you and your partner to move. I gave you the best advice that I was able to under ...

No fees information available
Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

Complaints Procedure

We have an in-house complaints procedure through which we endeavour to resolve any issues direct with our management team. If, however any client feels that this is not sufficient, then complaints are directed to our umbrella company, Xperience. They too have a procedure for handling complaints. In addition, we are members of the Property Ombudsman Scheme.
