You are required to pay £6,200 up front as a reservation fee which is non-refundable even if the circumstances are out of your hands. This fee also cannot be transferred. So if the initial sale doesn't go through for an unforeseen reason (fairly common in real ...

Thanks for the response. Your reply is in keeping with the rest of the experience of dealing with you - you come across as overly defensive, disingenuous and deliberately ambiguous. This perception arises because you have ignored some of my points, have misleadingly misinterpreted others and contradicted yourself on the remainder. 1) You say the Reservation Agreement is between the Seller and the Buyer. Yet you claim sole right to adjudicate (enforce" is not the right word – you're not the po ...

I have not had a bad experience to date but my partner has and it is not acceptable that he was not informed of the processor intentions. We was walking to the takeaway and noticed his property was assigned to public auction on a set date at a hotel. We had no knowledge of this until seeing it in the window . The agent does not make regular contact as promised which creates a lack of trust. We spoke to Carl who did not acknowledge this failure and suggested my partner reduce the price of the h ...
