Ocean, Southville
  • paragraph

    At Ocean, we've been selling homes in Bristol since 1983. From our first tiny office on Gloucester Road, we've grown steadily over the years, and today we have eight estate agency offices across the city, as well as five letting offices.

    Ocean is an estate agent with a difference. To begin with, we're much more than just an estate agent. We offer a complete range of property-related services, covering everything from mortgages and surveys to land acquisition and lettings. But, above all, what sets us apart is something less tangible. Our attitude. With Ocean, it's all about you. We understand what your home means to you. And, across all our services, our incredibly hard-working and enthusiastic people will stop at nothing to do the best possible job on your behalf.

    Quite simply, we won't be happy unless you're happy.

    We have been operating in Southville since 1988. Our staff are local and have an excellent reputation within the local community. Our busy team know every road, street & close intimately, and are involved with the major new developments this vibrant area has attracted in recent years. As well as Southville we cover Bedminster, Bedminster Down, Victoria Park, Windmill Hill, Bishopsworth & Hedley Park. Pop in or call for the best local information on this extremely popular area of Bristol.

5 steps to selling with Ocean
  • paragraph

    Step 1 - An accurate market appraisal
    How much is your home worth? It's vital to get an accurate valuation so the best possible price is achieved. And no one is better qualified than Ocean to provide precisely that - thanks to our unmatched knowledge of the local property market.

    Just contact any of our eight branches across Bristol, and leave the rest to our friendly and utterly professional team.
  • paragraph

    Step 2 - Marketing your home
    Naturally, we use all available means to make sure your home reaches the largest possible number of potential buyers - from local property publications, through the leading home sale websites, to national press.

    Once we've started marketing, our state-of-the-art technology goes to work matching suitable buyers to your home. But at Ocean we're great believers in the human touch, so we'll carefully register and check all applicants, to ensure that they are serious potential buyers who won't waste your time.
  • paragraph

    Step 3 - Viewings
    Taking care to match the right people to the right property makes it much more likely that a viewing will lead to a sale. So does the fact that our enthusiastic and incredibly hard working people know exactly how to show off your home to its best advantage,

    With Ocean, it really is all about you - and we'll stop at nothing to do the best possible job on your behalf.
  • paragraph

    Step 4 - Agreeing the sale
    When we receive an offer for your home, we'll liaise between you and the buyer until a price is agreed. This may include fixtures and fittings. And, at this point, we'll also be looking to agree a projected time-frame for exchange of contracts and completion of the sale.

    If you're buying a new place, we'll also contact the estate agent concerned to find out about the state of the chain.
  • paragraph

    Step 5 - Instructing solicitors
    At this stage, we'll need your solicitor's details. It's very important for you to supply these promptly,since the transaction can't start until both buyer's and seller's solicitors have been instructed.

    Naturally, we recommend our colleagues at Ocean Property Lawyers. We're used to working, closely together, which can speed up the conveyancing process dramatically. Please let us know if you'd like Ocean Property Lawyers to provide a quotation.

    Ocean Financial Services
    It's harder to find the right mortgage than ever before.

    While there is still a bewildering choice of products, it can be difficult to find the best arrangement for you. That's where Ocean comes in. Whether you're buying a new home, remortgaging or buying to let, we can help you find the right mortgage. We are completely independent, so we focus all our efforts on your needs, guiding you through the market to find the mortgage that best suits your requirements. We've helped thousands of customers find mortgages since 1990.

    And the sooner you talk to us, the better. Because, with your mortgage agreed in principle, you'll be in a much stronger position when you find a place you want to buy. And, once your move is on, you can rely on us to make sure there are no financial hold-ups. In fact, even if you have a mortgage in mind, why not ask us for an independent assessment. It could pay off.

    When you arrange a mortgage with our help, you get a dedicated administrator working on your behalf, as well as our financial advisor. We'll track your mortgage every step of the way, ensuring deadlines are met, hassling the building society and the lawyers, and even gently nudging you, to make sure everything goes according to plan. Many of our customers come to us for further advice about financial services. As independent financial advisors, we are fully qualified to help you make the right decisions about all of the following: life assurance and critical illness cover; income protection; payment protection insurance; building and contents insurance; pensions and investments.

    Ocean Surveyors
    Your new home is probably the biggest financial commitment you'll ever make. So when you find a place that looks and feels right, it's only common sense to check it out properly before you make the final decision to buy it.

    For all the reassurance you need, look no further than Ocean Surveyors. Depending on your budget and the type of property you're buying, we offer three kinds of survey, from a simple mortgage valuation, through to a more detailed home-buyer's report, to a full building survey. Our experienced team will be happy to advise on which service is right for you, before carrying out your survey quickly and efficiently - keeping you informed at all times. With us, it couldn't be simpler to ensure that your home-buying decision is based on firm foundations.

    Ocean Letting and Management
    We moved into the local rental market in 2004. And yes, it's been the same old story. By doing things the Ocean way - by being more friendly, more efficient and altogether more professional - we've earned a reputation that's simply second to none.

    Our aim at Ocean Letting and Management is, quite simply, to offer landlords a no-hassle service of the highest quality - starting from the first moment we meet, through to finding the right tenant and securing the best deal for you.

    We can tailor our services to your needs, too, doing as much or as little as you wish. (Though the vast majority of landlords use us to manage their properties, so all they have to do is enjoy the income generated.)

    To find out more about letting your property the Oceanway, get in touch with us today.
