    Jack Goodacre - Director
    Hi my name is Jack Goodacre and myself and my brother Simon set up Goodacres Residential in Kempston. Having worked for a well known corporate for 10 years I felt that it was the right time for me to invest my experience and time into my own agency. Adding a lettings department to our agency has brought with it a number of challenges but overcoming these to be one of the most recognizable lettings departments in the area has been a rewarding feeling. Do not hesitate to contact the team should you have any lettings needs.

    Hi my name is Simon Goodacre and I am one of the directors of Goodacres Residential. I, the same as Jack was working with the same corporate agent for many years and had worked my way up to become a branch manger. I thought the time was right to come together with my brother to set up this family run business known as Goodacres Residential. We cover all aspects of estate agency from buying and selling to Lettings. Please get in contact with our rental department should you have a property to rent out.

    Testimonials from Landlords

    • Landlord Testimonial

      Outstanding professional service provided
      Mr RJ | Bedford - I have several rental properties that are managed by Goodacres. I am so impressed with the outstanding professional service provided by Josh. I know that my properties are in good hands. Inspections are carried out regularly and thoroughly and rent is transferred to me promptly and statements provided. I know that if there are any issues with my properties that need tending to, Josh will inform me immediately or tend to them for me in my absence. I would not go anywhere else as we have built a great relationship and this has taken the stress out of my rental business.

      Kept me fully informed throughout
      Mr DS | Bedford - Having refurbished my property I initially sought to sell it but changing circumstances and the onset of COVID-19 I decided to let it instead. Goodacres were very responsive to my requirements and ideas with the result that the property was let within a short period of time. Josh, lettings manager, kept me fully informed throughout despite the onset of the lock down. All in all the process was a very positive one.

        Below are a few brief testimonials that we have received from some of our customers we have dealt with since we opened our first Goodacres Residential office 4 years ago

      Testimonials from Sellers

      • Seller Testimonial

        The best estate agent I have ever dealt with with
        "To Jack and Simon at Goodacres Residential. I have used quite a few estate agents during my time and not been very happy with anyone of them. I would like to thank you for your fantastic service, honesty and friendly service. I would like to wish you every success for the future. You will go far. I would certainly recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell. By far the best estate agent I have ever dealt with with."

      • Seller Testimonial

        I can't rate Goodacres highly enough
        Mrs G | Bedford - I can't rate Goodacres highly enough - our house went on the market last week with them and within 2 days we had an offer. Not the type of estate agents to sit back and wait for the business, Simon was extremely pro active and rang round buyers that he knew were looking in my area and for my type of property and we had 4 viewings within a few days. Really impressed!

      • Seller Testimonial

        I would certainly recommend Goodacres.
        Mr W | Great Denham - Simon and Jack in tandem did a fantastic job selling our house. Being proactive in putting a 3 page spread in the Beds on Sunday (at no additional cost), managing both our expectations as a seller and doing a good job detailing our expectations to the buyer. It's been a stress free process, in which our house was discussed, viewed, publicised and sold in 18 days. Personally I'd much rather pay for the option of traditional, face to face, estate agency; what I thought would enable Jack and Simon to appeal to the masses is an offering to suit all needs - an Online offering (purplebricks esq. however I have no doubt they would still surpass expectation) or the traditional agenting, at a reasonable and highly competitive rate. If looking to sell, I would certainly recommend Goodacres.

      • Seller Testimonial

        Professional, smart and stress free
        Mr B | Bedford - WOW these guys sold my house so fast! Professional, smart and stress free. I will be using them again !

      • Seller Testimonial

        We asked Simon for a quick sale and we got one
        Mrs A | Oakley - We asked Simon for a quick sale and we got one. Throughout the proceedings they were there to help and advise - o ur house sale was unusual in that due to a family emergency we were not able to be present, so every aspect of the sale was handled by Simon and Jack. The service they provided was professional, but they had a lot of empathy for our situation, and were a listening ear!! WE wish them every success.

      • Seller Testimonial

        You will get a 5* service.
        Mr & Mrs G - Kempston / We couldn't recommend these guys more! You will get a 5* service. We put our house on the market in July, sold within 2 days and move today!. We picked these guys because on initial consultation they were friendly, approachable, professional, don't tie you into a contract and have a competitive rate. We have been so impressed. They sold our house for an amazing price, have made the process easy and stress free, kept us in the loop, chased solicitors and have been at the end of the phone whenever we have needed them. Good luck Simon and Jack. The personal service you have given us has been invaluable. Thank you The Gardener Family.

      • Seller Testimonial

        I can't thank them enough
        Mrs L - Kempston - I can't rate Goodacres highly enough - we spent a lot of time trying to decide which agent to go with and have never regretted our decision. To say they have gone the extra mile is an understatement and they have remained polite, professional and friendly throughout the process. Within 24 hours of our house being on the market they found us a solid buyer and smoothly ironed out any problems with ease. I can't thank them enough for making our move as stress free as possible. You only have to look down my street and see the three sold signs from Goodacres (which other agents were unable to sell) to see that Simon and Jack get results!

      Testimonials from Buyers

      • Buyer Testimonial

        there were superb.
        Mr T | Wootton - We have recently brought a property through Goodacres and there were superb. Every step of the way Simon or Jack were there to help out, give advice and more importantly, get the house sale through. Fantastic service and will defiantly look to sell through them when the time is right.

      • Buyer Testimonial

        Mrs B | Kempston - Really impressed by Simon and Jack. A truly fantastic service from start to finish. Stress free and a timely completion. Very happy customer

      • Buyer Testimonial

        Mr and Mrs B | Kempston - Jack and Simon supported us completely during our recent sale. They did that little bit more and handled every situation professionally and politely. We would like to wish them every success. They deserve it.

      • Buyer Testimonial

        Unbelievablyly professional
        Mr W | Bedford - Unbelievablyly professional from both gents from start to finish! They have gone above and beyond for both us and buyer to ensure we are happy! Great service at a great price! Highly recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell!

      • Buyer Testimonial

        They went above and beyond to keep me in the loop
        Mrs K - Bedford .As a first time buyer I had no clue what to expect. With a new baby too it was difficult keeping track of my house purchase. I found Jack, Simon and Josh at Goodacres to be informative, helpful and very dedicated, and i was the buyer! They went above and beyond to keep me in the loop and gave me tips on how to handle my lender and solicitors. They were professional and patiently answered all my questions either on the spot or as soon as they could. I never felt stupid for asking a question and they were always very polite. They are very genuine and hard working people. I now have my dream home and if I ever can bear to part with it I will be using Goodacres to sell it.
