Dear Seige, Thank you for your recent comments. With a lack of properties coming to the market we have seen an increase in agents ‘buying' instructions – this tends to involve agents offering higher valuations and lower fees. Whilst I hope this isn't the case in your situation it can get frustrating for the team and unfortunately on rare instances this can come over in the wrong way, so please accept the companies apology if this was the case. It is good to hear about the initial ...

Comment on agent fees
Whilst the fee charged is less than the larger players, it was still a substantial sum and took a substnantial chunk of the money from the sale. Considering the fee is 2.5 times the upfront fee, there seems much disparity between the two. A cost to sell a house is the same whether upfront or on completion.

I thought the fees were reasonable for the service, until we got to the aftersales point. I thought part of the price we were paying was for aftersales progression and it was quite poor. The advertising and offer agreed stage of the transaction though were great and fees for this area were justified.
