Ocean Estate Agents have been selling Bristol homes of all shapes and sizes – large and small, grand ¬and modest, smart and not so smart… for all kinds of people since 1984.
Founder Paul Harris started the business over 40 years ago with Ocean Bishopston on Gloucester Road, and there are now 12 local offices across the city including one in Portishead and Weston super Mare.
Their ethos is very much ‘people before property’, with the emphasis on looking after the individuals and families buying or selling their homes, to make what is often a challenging experience, as worry-free as possible.
Ocean’s teams, reflect the culturally rich communities of this wonderful city, spanning a diverse mix of ages and backgrounds from across Bristol.
It is also very much a family business. Many of the team have grown up and started their own families whilst working for Ocean – they even have some second generation ‘Oceaners’ now working for the company.
Excellent communication and a lovely smile!
Fast paperwork Reliable Trustworthy
Good service, very knowledgeable and dedicated with a friendly but efficient team.
I found that they listened to my requests, communicated well and were consistent with their approach to give an accurate and realistic valuation. Liam was particularly helpful and sensitive to my elderly relative. I would certainly recommend them.
Emma beaumont was really helpful and very nice
Really happy with Ocean. Our process as first buyer took over 6 months because of different things but Ocean, especially Melissa Bell was chasing them and trying to push all the timw to speed up the process. Thanks for that, I really appreciate it
Communication and service is outstanding. All the team really care about their clients, what they need and make everything so easy.
Ocean Estate Agents (Downend) and Solicitors (Bradley Stoke) were both excellent regarding my recent house purchase. From start to finish I was kept fully informed and everything went smoothly. Lovely teams to liaise with and I recommend them if you are thinking of buying a house using their services.
We had a great experience with Ocean when selling our house. Great communication from the beginning and very easy to deal with. The whole process felt well-managed.
helpful and responsive
We were very happy with the service from Ocean during the recent sale of my mother's house. The staff were helpful and friendly and happy to deal with any questions we had. Everything was dealt with efficiently and the sale went through very smoothly.
Great communication
My overall experience has been great from all the team at Ocean. I chose Claire Ham due to her local knowledge, having sold neighbouring property recently she assured me she had some potential leads. The property sold the same weekend it went on the market for the asking price. Jenny Green, Ashleigh Westcott-Egan and team then made the rest of the process as easy as possible, keeping me updated with developments. They progressed without as need to chase things right through to completion. Thanks
Ocean were fantastic from start to finish. Would thoroughly recommend buying through their experienced and swift team.
Really happy with service we received from Ocean. Steve and Melissa were always on hand to answer questions and resolve any issues. A stressful time made a lot easier by a professional service. Thanks for all your help. Tom Westwood
Excellent service from Ocean Shirehampton branch. We were supported and guided by all members of the team, from the first valuation appointment with Chris, right through to completion. We were kept updated throughout the selling process, and the regular emails from Sadie were invaluable. A truly professional service and I have no hesitation in giving them 5 stars. Well deserved.
Very professional service in helping us to find new tenants from the Clifton office letting team, special thanks to Will, Emilia and Lily Regards Alfonso
Lost out on a significant amount of money as the solicitors did not put through mortgage payment redemption in time. It's a shame that you have to constantly chase them to do what seems to be everyday parts of their role. Getting information from them is like extracting blood from a stone. If you're happy to email them every day then you should go with these guys as they did give us a decent rate in comparison. You get what you pay for.
We found Oceans staff to be kind, understanding ,patient, and supportive. And we are very happy and more than satisfied with our chosen estate agents.
