Bridges Estate Agents, Caversham

I can highly recommend Bridges Estate Agents. I found each stage of the sale, from valuation, showings, negotiating offers, right though to completion very efficient and they really drove the process forward. We were really pleased with the service we received. NOVEMBER 2022

"After booking 4 local Estate Agents to offer guidance and advice for selling our family home, I decided to engage with Bridges. It was very clear that Jo Rosser had exceptional local knowledge being a local resident, and as such she knew the market very well. She had a lovely persona but no nonsense at the same time and I loved her honest approach. The whole team were engaged, supportive, fast moving and great communicators from the outset. Liana was exceptional, the internal liaison for me as the seller but also with the buyers and both sets of solicitors, ensuring the sale moved at a fast pace, negotiating any urgent matters to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience, which I have never been party to before. I would not hesitate to recommend Bridges to anyone selling or buying and I would most definitely use them again." SEPTEMBER 2022

"You and your team have been brilliant and have tied our sale and purchase together seamlessly, in what is a very challenging market. The initial advice you gave about value was critical to securing a quick sale." APRIL 2023

"I would have no hesitation in recommending Bridges for your property move. From Andy's initial, thorough evaluation of the house, through to Liana's friendly efficiency in getting us all over the line on the day of completion, every member of staff I dealt with along the way provided a very professional service. House moves are stressful and Bridges skilfully navigated me through the process at each turn. You will not be disappointed if you place your business with them." OCTOBER 2022

"Bridges were efficient, proactive, responsive and good at keeping everyone up to date with progress. I would recommend them." OCTOBER 2022

Huge thanks to Andy and his team for all the support they gave us while selling our property. Every step of the way their communication was excellent, and we felt fully informed at all times. Extremely professional without losing that personal touch and very understanding when we had to pause the process. Special thanks to Liana who was always calm and reassuring. I have no hesitation in recommending Bridges if you are thinking of selling or buying your home. MARCH 2024

Many thanks to the Bridges team who managed our sale, from their intuition in identifying a solid chain through to expediting issues in front of exchange of contracts. The publicity material and drone video were first class and the team always approachable and helpful, and knew what was going on throughout the process. AUGUST 2024

We had been thinking about downsizing for a while and after conversations with a few agents we thought we would go ahead with Bridges. Carly came up to view our house, chat through the process and explain the order of events. There was plenty of time to think things through, no pressure to go ahead, just gentle encouragement, which was exactly what we needed, it was an emotional time for us and it took us some time to feel ready to take the plunge. Once the house was live on the market, the Bridges team were communicative and respectful of our preferences regarding viewings, they always gave feedback and had time to chat things through. When the chain was proceedable and solicitors had been appointed, there is a dedicated person to liaise with buyer, seller, other agents and solicitors. There are the inevitable hold ups in the legal process, and it did take longer than we expected , however Liana never lost her cool, she chased up on our behalf at times we felt unable to find the energy and always listened when we needed to let off steam. This was very much appreciated. We are grateful to the whole team generally, Carly in particular, for guiding us initially, their friendly, professional manner meant we felt supported throughout. Thank you all. JANUARY 2025

"Andy, Vivien, Jo, Carly, Liana and the rest of the team at Bridges were extremely professional from the point of initial engagement, property valuation, marketing, viewings and guiding us through the sale process. Throughout these stage Bridges were always contactable and very communicative, whether that was with ourselves, the buyers/vendors or associated solicitors. Bridges' knowledge of properties in Caversham is clearly evident, and would highly recommend using them if you are looking to buy or sell a property in the local area." JUNE 2022

"We had a great experience using Bridges to sell our property recently. From the initial consultation, preparation of property particulars including photos and help in concluding the sale, the whole team were very professional and responsive throughout. Of particular note, we were incredibly grateful to have Liana working tirelessly to help progress the chain to completion, overcoming numerous hurdles along the way." OCTOBER 2023

"Thanks to all the Team at Bridges Estate Agents. They helped us Immensely to market our property through the whole process from valuation to completion. Andy and his team certainly are Professional/Knowledgeable/ and Understanding that ensured our Sale from initiation to completion. Thank you." OCTOBER 2023

"After my Mum went into a Care Home after 54 years in her house it was a difficult and emotional decision to clear and sell her home, Andy came and gave us a valuation and reassured us with the sale. We had an offer within a week and the sale went through smoothly. Andy also recommended a Solicitor for us who was equally efficient handling the sale. All the team at Bridges were very friendly, understanding and professional and we would have no hesitation in recommending Bridges." FEBRUARY 2022

Selling our large, period property and family home of almost 30 years was a major decision but, just as major was the choice of the right Estate Agent to help us navigate this journey. From our initial meeting with Jo, we instantly knew that Bridges would be the right choice as there was a true appreciation of our situation. We received realistic guidance on the market price, superb photography and video to ensure best marketing, professional guidance re preparation for viewings and highly effective advice as offers came in. Jo, Carly, Viv and Tom have an in-depth knowledge of the local area and take considerable time to understand and match would-be buyers to suitable properties. Similarly, once a sale is agreed, Liana's guidance and knowledge of the various stages and communication throughout the chain assists progression and helped us and our buyers achieve completion. We highly recommend the friendly and knowledgeable service of the team at Bridges to anyone considering a sale of their property. FEBRUARY 2025

We were very impressed with the video, and drone footage promotion. Also, the patience and help throughout the process. JULY 2024

"We used bridges for the sale of our house and completed last month. Every single step was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. All the staff were amazing. They found a buyer and progressed the sale keeping us informed all the way. We would highly recommend them and would have no hesitation in using them again." JANUARY 2023

"Right from the get go we found Bridges to be first class. Andy and his team are very professional, friendly and helpful. They have extensive knowledge of the property market in and around Caversham. The service was fairly priced and they were very quick to come back to us with any questions raised. The photography and videography were outstanding. They were always courteous and informed us of everything at every stage, from viewings right through to the final day of exchange and completion, which was not an easy time. We also bought our new property with Bridges, and again they were fantastic. We want to mention, Tom, Rory, with a special thanks to Vivien, Jo and Liana... all of which were fabulous. Liana was amazingly helpful with the last few weeks leading up to our completion date, she was there at every turn and helped us with the process in a big way. We highly recommend Bridges and I would definitely use them again. Thank you all!" NOVEMBER 2022

From day one, I experienced a really professional service from Andy and his team which ensure a smooth sale and purchase. Communication was excellent and everyone was friendly, helpful and straightforward to deal with. Nothing was too much trouble and any questions and queries were addressed promptly. MARCH 2025

"I chose Bridges to market my house because they are a well established and respected Estate Agent in the Caversham area and because of this, they have an excellent knowledge and understanding of the local area. I was extremely impressed with the sales brochure they produced which had the most wonderful photographs of the house. I let Bridges show potential buyers around the house and presumably that worked well. In summary I found all the staff to be very helpful, with excellent communication throughout and were always willing to listen to any issues I raised. I would strongly recommend them to other potential sellers." JANUARY 2023

"Thank you to Andy and his team for your thoroughly professional service with a personal touch. The support provided throughout the sale process was invaluable in progressing to completion in the desired timeframe." SEPTEMBER 2024

"From the moment we had Andy around to value our house we knew we wanted to put it on the market with Bridges. His knowledge of the local area, plus the excellent marketing materials really made the Bridges service a step above other local agents we had had round. The whole process of putting the house on the market was extremely smooth and we were blown away by the quality of the photos and the marketing brochure Bridges put together. Although we sold the house very quickly, it took a very long time to find our new house but all the team at Bridges were so patient with us in this process - a special shout out to Viv and Tom who showed us numerous properties and got used to us walking in and out of houses very quickly! Jo for putting up with my numerous phone calls and to Carly who I know helped in the background to try to find us a house. And then when we did find a house a special shout out to Andy and particularly Liana who spent hours with me at the end resolving a few teething problems - which I could not have done without her. Not that we are ever planning on moving again but if we do I would go back to Andy straight away and have no hesitation in recommending Bridges. Many thanks to you all." DECEMBER 2022

"Sold our house through Andy and the team late last year. Could not have been happier with the attention to detail and constant updates we had from them all. Lovely people and did a great job as we went through the process." FEBRUARY 2024

The advice I received from Bridges for the sale of my house was very helpful and professional, with the house accurately marketed. I had wonderful support from Jo and her team throughout the process and I was able to buy the house I wanted through them too. In a slow moving market my sale was quick and so was my purchase. Thank you to everyone at Bridges for all your help and support. FEBRUARY 2025

"I want to thank you for your input with the sale of my house and subsequent purchase of my new home. I always felt that I was in safe hands. You handled everything sensitively and efficiently, knowing exactly how much I could cope with at a time and guiding me through the process. I really felt that you understood how I was feeling at all times and that makes you very good at your job! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bridges to others on the basis of my experience (and I feel many of my friends will be following my example in the coming years!) It's been a pleasure doing business with you." APRIL 2023

Bridges have been fantastic at handling both our purchase and sale. Straight forward to work with, responsive and once the deal was agreed incredibly diligent at moving everyone along. Big thanks to Jo, Liana and the whole team. MAY 2024

The team at Bridges Estate Agent were professional from the beginning of the process to completion of our house sale, and their approach with a 'no sales pressure' was refreshing and this is why we had chosen Bridges ...we would like to say especially thanks to Carley ,Jo and Vivien who made the sale go smoothly as possible...would highly recommend ...happy customer what not to Like! APRIL 2024

Mark and I would like to express our sincere gratitude for your help, guidance, and commitment to delivering a strong result in selling our parents' home in a tough selling market. Your knowledge of the local market, active buyers, and ability to navigate the complexities of the probate sale process were invaluable. I particularly appreciated your support and understanding of our situation, going the extra mile to help with the clearance and expertly balancing the needs of both sides of the transaction across time zones. We are pleased with the outcome and really appreciate your help. We have not forgotten the keys and will both get these to your office over the coming month. MARCH 2025

"Andy and the team at Bridges were amazing from start to finish in the sale of our home and come highly recommended. From initial valuation Andy was refreshingly honest and professional. Tom, within Andy's team, visited the property before conducting viewings to ensure he was familiar with the layout and able to answer potential questions. Bridges verified prospective buyers to confirm they were in a position to proceed before booking appointments and subsequently secured an offer on the first day of viewings. Liana was a complete star chasing through the sales process within the chain, speaking with solicitors and other agents, to secure a moving date before Christmas. Thank you all so much for going above and beyond and making the process as seamless as possible." JANUARY 2022

"We used Bridges to sell our property recently and were delighted with the service. They were efficient and helpful throughout the whole process. We would highly recommend their services." AUGUST 2023

Andy and his team have an excellent insight into the Caversham property market and made a great call regarding the asking price. We achieved a fast sale of our flat with a higher than expected sales price. The service was competitively priced, and the quality of the property photography was the best in town. Everyone in the Bridges team was professional and helpful at all stages of the sale, as well as purchasing our new home, which was also facilitated by Bridges. We highly recommend the services. OCTOBER 2022

"We decided to use Bridges as they are a local agent, with knowledge of the Caversham market and they play a part in supporting the local community. We found the service provided by Bridges to be very positive, from the start of the sales process through to completion of the sale of our home. We know Bridges continues to help families create new homes in the local area and they go further by donating a percentage of their fees to local schools, showing their commitment to our area." AUGUST 2022

"A massive thank you to Andy and all the team at Bridges for the sale of our parents property. My parents were moving into assisted living accommodation, so it was a very difficult process for them. The whole team were very respectful and professional throughout the entire proceedings. They focussed on getting serious buyers through the door, and we were delighted to get an offer within a few weeks of it going on the market. We would definitely recommend Bridges to others looking to buy or sell in the Caversham area." FEBRUARY 2022

I was really impressed with the photography and drone footage of my property, super professional. Also thank you to the Bridges team for their support during a very long and difficult house sale and purchase. OCTOBER 2024

Many thanks to Bridges for their work both in attracting interested buyers and in sustaining the impetus to ensure the sale kept on course.

All the personnel, throughout, were unfailing courteous and helpful, an informality that characterised the entire agency arrangement. OCTOBER 2024

"Great work from the team at Bridges from start to finish. Speedy, accurate and polite when communicating, and interested in the details. They got a thorough understanding of our needs, got our house on the market quickly at the correct price, and found a buyer promptly. We have no hesitation in recommending them." JUNE 2023

I had a great experience selling my mums house through Bridges. I wanted an agent that was able to sensitively bring people around knowing mum was elderly and on her own. The Bridges staff who handled the viewings were very caring to mum and it was always the same agent that came meaning mum felt safe with them. I would thoroughly recommend them. APRIL 2024

I was very pleased with the professionalism and integrity of the team. The transaction was long and painful but Bridges were not the cause of this and did much to ease it along. I recommend Bridges unreservedly. MAY 2024

The journey to completion was as smooth as we could have wished. All in all, Bridges provided a five-star service based on local knowledge and professionalism. We would not hesitate to recommend Bridges to anyone hoping to sell in the area." FEBRUARY 2023

"Please accept my thanks for the work you put in to sell our property. From start to finish you all delivered what was promised. A buyer found within two weeks. You looked after all the stages including recommending a solicitor. I have no hesitation in saying you are the most efficient Estate Agents in Caversham. Once again thank you all for your hard work." JANUARY 2023

We are incredibly happy with the service we have received from Andy and the team.

A big thank you to Liana who has really put in the hours to get us over the line! We highly recommend Bridges Property! MARCH 2024

I want to say a huge thank you to the whole team at Bridges in Sonning Common. From Andy and Liana's honest and spot on valuation, to their personal and always professional service. We had used other agents before instructing Bridges and no one matched their experience and knowledge of the area and the market. Bridges have an excellent approach with prospective buyers, but it is for their knowledge and experience during the conveyancing process, how they skilfully managed and chased both solicitors, that makes them the best agent I have ever worked with, and one I could not recommend higher. OCTOBER 2024

"Andy as well as his team, responded promptly, with constant progress updates. Communication was excellent. They were all friendly, helpful, professional, throughout the sale, also the purchase of a new property. I would highly recommend them." OCTOBER 2024

Jo Rosser knows the Caversham market very well, providing accurate pricing advice; and her colleagues were always diligent in hosting viewings and ensuring that the long sale chain all progressed smoothly to completion on the agreed date. What's more, they are pleasant people with whom I was glad to work. I recommend them. Five stars *****. APRIL 2025

"Jo and her team at Bridges were exceptional and couldn't have done more to take out the stress of selling our house as we downsized and headed into retirement! They explained the whole process from start to finish, the market conditions and how best to achieve our objectives, all of which were met. The team looking after us kept us fully in the picture with each prospective buyer and the eventual sale went through very smoothly. On a personal note, a huge thank you to the team for all the help and support given to us on taking the next step in our new adventure.", JUNE 2025

Bridges handled the sale of my house very well from the start. From my initial approach to Bridges to invite them to handle the sale through to the final processes of completion of the sale with required interfaces with the respective solicitors and parties involved. It helped enormously to minimise the stress of moving. JULY 2023

Thanks to all the staff at Bridges in Caversham on a stress free sale of my property last month. Communication was great from valuation through completion. All questions were handled promptly and professionally. I would definitely recommend their services. JULY 2023

'We would highly recommend Bridges Estate agents who offered a first class service from conception to completion of selling our property in Sonning Common'. MARCH 2024

We used the bridges team to buy our new property and sell our old one. These transactions were not done in a normal chain, as we wanted a gap in between but it was managed seamlessly. Front office teams sold the property within days and the back office team kept us fully informed throughout both on the purchase and sale transactions. MAY 2024

We recently used Bridges Estate Agents to sell our house and were very pleased with all aspects of the service. We were given great advise initially on realistic pricing and staging the house and were delighted with the photos and video. We met most of the team and all were very thorough. We are particularly grateful to Jo Bellamy-Rosser who showed the house in a most professional manner and advised us on the offers. We would highly recommend Bridges to anyone looking to sell their house. SEPTEMBER 2023

"I would recommend Andy and his team at Bridges for all the help at a difficult time for the sale of my late fathers bungalow." JANUARY 2023

We have used Bridges Estate Agent twice over the past three years. First sale was my Mums family home and recently our house when we decided to downsize. We cannot praise the team at Bridges enough, every member of staff has a part to play and together they gel to make a very professional company who are understanding, caring and sympathetic to your needs. Our sale didn't go as smoothly as we had hoped but Bridges were there to hold our hands, give us encouragement and steer us through the hiccups. All the team are amazing but we have to thank Jo for guiding us through and keeping us informed throughout the initial stage of getting our house under offer and Liana for continuing the process to complete the sale. Communication at all times was excellent Thank you Andy and all your team for providing a first class service. We would highly recommend Bridges to anyone thinking of selling or buying in the local area. JULY 2023

"Big Thanks to the whole Bridges team for helping us with the sale and purchase. They managed to close the sale of my house very quickly. Special thanks to Liana and Andy for great communication & advice and for being very prompt in responding whenever we reached them. I would highly recommend Bridges to anyone who is looking to buy/sell in Caversham/Emmer Green. " FEBRUARY 2024

Hi Liana, Jo, Vivien, Andy, Rory and all at Bridges. Now that I've finally got a minute after a hectic two weeks moving all our stuff to France, I wanted to say a huge thank you for your hard work and professionalism in helping us sell our house in Emmer Green. It wasn't the smoothest of sales but we really feel you did an outstanding job in helping us get it over the line. We've already recommended Bridges to a few people in the past few months and will continue to do so whenever our friends in the area ask for a recommendation. MAY 2023

"We felt that Bridges really took a great deal of care and attention to our needs, sending us the details of only the relevant properties to our search. Bridges being a local independent business contributes both positively and practically to the whole customer experience."

"Throughout the buying process, Andy and his team at Bridges were always available, happy to help and totally professional. It was a pleasure dealing with them."

"We both will be pleased to offer any personal recommendations as we found all the staff at Bridges to be very helpful. Also to add that whenever a problem no matter what came knocking that the team and especially Sue would take responsibility to resolve or to keep us up to date with progress. For our part through both good and bad times the Bridges people didn't at any time let us down."

"I would not hesitate to recommend Bridges to anyone thinking of selling their home in the local area. The whole process from start to finish was professional, courteous and friendly. I immediately liked Andy's honest approach and was so impressed when he marched up the Peppard Road on foot to value the house because his car was blocked in by somebody in the Waitrose car park! The team were helpful and approachable at all times. My particular thanks must go to Liana who worked tirelessly to ensure exchange happened within the timeframe I needed. I would definitely use them again next time." JANUARY 2019

"Prior to buying a house I had heard some quite negative feedback about a number of agents in Caversham. However, Sue and Vivien at Bridges were excellent throughout the whole sales process. They were friendly, very efficient and able to negotiate what turned into a trickier purchase than anticipated. If I was looking to purchase or sell another house in Caversham I would only go to Bridges."

Bridges were professional throughout our purchase experience. When we had unforeseen issues with our vendor, they used their knowledge and contacts within the market and found us a great property not even on the market. The whole team are on the ball, respond well and give clarity within the whole process. Andy runs an honest team and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

"We purchased and sold through Bridges where the whole process was extremely easy and professional culminating in selling our house within 4 days of signing up! What was particularly helpful was the management of both transactions was well coordinated with all staff members treating you as though you are their highest priority. We didn't go through the turmoil of "free for all" open days meaning each prospective buyer was given adequate time to view the house personally with the agent. Both being treated, as well as having prospective buyers treated courteously and openly really make Bridges stand out from the rest of the pack (by a mile).

"My experience of Bridges has been entirely positive. Efficient, helpful and a really lovely team who are a pleasure to deal with. Would certainly recommend."

"We were recommended to use Bridges by our friends who had sold and bought their house through Bridges on more than one occasion. We can't thank Andy and his team enough for all their hard work and going above and beyond with the sale and purchase of our house. We can recommend Bridges for so many reasons. Mostly for professionalism, market knowledge, approachability, friendliness and being superb under pressure! It's been a pleasure dealing with Andy, Liana, Vivian and Jo and we hope your business goes from strength to strength."OCTOBER 2018
