Comment on agent fees
This agency were so on top of the business. they had to keep a chain of 5 houses going and pulled this off. I was always informed of progress without having to chase them up...wish my lawyers had been so together! They also listen to you and take on buying and selling a home as being an extremely personal and important part of ones life. They were not patronising in any way and I found that refreshing. I would highly recommend this agent.
