Written by the company
Ocean Estate Agents have been selling Bristol and North Somerset 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 service from marketing to sale The team were thorough and very professional, keeping the process moving and communicating with us frequently. In fact we completed in about 2.5 months. We were extremely satisfied with the service and care we received from both the marketing and solicitor teams.

Well from start to finish was a terrible experience. Moved in house was not clean dirty and asked for it to be cleaned. Not ever done. Maintenance on property was not done with leak in ceiling and mould.Would never want to rent through ocean ever again. Poor experience. Poor communication. Avoid
Ocean Property Lawyers, simply excellent!
I recently used Ocean Property Lawyers for the sale of my home, and I'm very grateful for the support I received throughout the process.
A special thank you to Olivia Staynings, who handled my sale professionally from start to finish. She was always approachable, patient, and quick to respond to any questions I had, helping to keep everything moving during what can be a stressful process.
Communication was clear throughout, and I always felt informed about what was happening next. When challenges arose, they were dealt with calmly and efficiently, giving me confidence that everything was in safe hands.
Selling a property is rarely straightforward, but the service I received made the experience much easier. I'd happily recommend Ocean Property Lawyers to anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and friendly conveyancing team, with excellent communication. Thank you again for all your hard work!
Straightforward, supportive, and highly recommended
Selling a house can be daunting but the team at Ocean made the whole process so easy and straightforward. I'd definitely recommend without hesitation.
Great service and team
The Ocean Clifton team was helpful from the start. All the team members were very experienced and went out of their way to help out, even when we had difficulties with our solicitors. They we the best estate agents we dealt with, and we'll definitely use them again if we ever purchase a property in the future.
Paul Delaney and his team at Ocean deserve an award
Paul Delaney and his team at Ocean Portishead deserve an award. I felt in safe hands from day one with Paul and and his team and was seriously impressed with everyone I spoke to. The technology and professional experstise were second to none. I was met with courtesty and kindness each step of the way to the successful completion of my purchase.
Professional , helpful and friendly staff
From initial instructions through to completion communication with Tom and Jenny (2) have been great. Complications, when the arose were discussed and resolved with minimum stress. I have no hesitation in recommending Ocean for future property sales.
Ocean Estate Agents
Have recently instructed Ocean to value and market a property, and received prompt professional service from Claire Kington. Property value, description, and photographs were quickly emailed for approval along with notification of a viewing within a couple of days. Hoping to receive offers in due course.
Great experience with Claire
Great experience with Claire, very accommodating for a last minute second viewing. Also useful being sent additional details about the property before the viewing.
Fantastic Experience Buying Our First Home
We had an excellent experience purchasing our first home with Ocean Estate Agents. From our initial viewing through to completion, the whole process was handled professionally, and we always felt well informed.
A special thank you to Julie Bridges, who kept us updated throughout the purchase and was always approachable, responsive and proactive. We’d also like to thank Andy Burge for his support and guidance during the process. Both were a pleasure to deal with and helped make what could have been a stressful experience much smoother.
We always received prompt responses to our questions, and the team worked hard to keep everything progressing. Thanks to their efforts, our purchase completed successfully, and we’re delighted with our new home.
We would happily recommend Ocean Estate Agents to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you again to Julie, Andy and the whole Ocean team for all your hard work.
