I wanted to give zero but this is the lowest.
Viewing dates were set weeks ahead, but an offer was accepted before the date that was fixed for block viewings. So not only was the vendor deprived of potential higher offers, but also buyers were ...

If zero stars was possible this is what they'd get. They do nothing at all to sell your property. Only suggestions have been to lower the price or take a break so it can be relisted on rightmove as new. They are liars, con artists ...

Tara , I could not agree more. Most Estate agents act to get the best deal for their clients but as you say their only advice is to keep dropping the price.
They are unprofessional and many of them do not have the skills to do the job. We ended up providing photo's of our own, redrawing the plan and writing the description. The current agent has never even visited the property and tries to give advice on how to market it. Totally useless!! ...
