I was taken off guard by the agent's fees. I thought the person hiring the agent to find renters for their property would pay for their services. So getting a £400+ fee shocked me.

Comment on agent fees
The fees were typical. However, if the high street agent is to survive the challenge presented by the internet, we would suggest they need to deliver something of "value"; such as excellent service. Since that "value" was missing, the fee charged was too much.
