This sale has taken nearly 4 months, they use their own in house Solicitors, Boys and Maughan, who are almost as inefficient as they are. There was no chain on this property as it was a probate sale. I have worked in Solicitors for 20 years and have never seen such ineptitude as this Estate Agent and their Solicitors. I also told them categorically that I did not want a buy to let investor to buy this house. I wanted it sold as a home for someone to love. Amanda let slip that it has indeed been sold to a buy to let investor! They never phone you back and do not reply to letters or emails. Today was completion and they have not sent their bill to my Solicitors, I phoned and asked why, they sent it to the wrong address. You could not make this up.
Comment on agent fees
They only deserve half a percent they have not done enough to earn any more

Avoid. Misrepresent valuation to get business. Not one viewing. 1 cancelled and 1 time waster aka unconfirmed. Want you to sell on the cheap. Have an unfair term in the contract which is unenforceable having taken legal advice. Please avoid agents that offer a higher valuation....

Dear Mrs Lewis,
I have asked Simon Thompson (Miles and ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
1. Managed our property under the terms originally agreed. 2. Returned money owed to us. 3. Returned items of furniture that they said they would store for us. 4. Reported structural issues about our property - these problems which we were not informed about led to us selling the property at a substantial loss.Attached Filesnbsp;
