    Founded in Clifton by Charles Joseph Hole in 1867, CJ Hole's main business was rent collection - which in the Victorian era was much more common than buying. As the years rolled by and 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.

      Testimonials from Sellers

      • Seller Testimonial

        very professional
        I have bought and sold two properties through CJ Hole and found their services to be very professional. They have good local knowledge and the Westbury and Henleaze offices work as a team, so there are plenty of staff available for viewings and support.

        Within 24hrs of putting my last property on the market there were 22 viewings booked, with more to follow in the next few days. We went to best and final offers within 6 days of viewings starting, achieving above the asking price.

      • Seller Testimonial

        Their attention to detail was exemplary
        George and the team were great to deal with, relaxed and professional. They were realistic in sharing their expectations and did not try to over or undersell the value of our house. Their attention to detail was exemplary in arranging and reporting on viewings. Lorraine was brilliant in keeping us informed of developments in the process from sale to completion.

        I have just sold my property through C J Hole, Westbury on Trym, Bristol. It was a long drawn out process after accepting the offer on 25 October 2019. All the staff were exceptionally helpful throughout from Ben who visited me last July to arrange the marketing, Annabel who took the photos, Josh, Luke,and Max who accompanied prospective buyers, ending with Lorraine who saw the sale go through, and Kim who stood in for her right at the end. Well done to you all.

        accurate and helpful
        We both bought and sold with CJ Hole and we felt fully supported right the way through the process.Unfortunately, the sale of our own property feel through on the first attempt (through no fault of CJ Hole). The team worked really hard to get the property back on the market and re-sold within a week and they kept us calm throughout! We have always found the advice the team at CJ have offered to be accurate and helpful. They have always warmly received the many questions we have had and we can't say enough good things about the service they provided.

        stress free
        Would recommend buying a property through CJ Hole. Communication by email, phone was very easy organised and thought out.
