I'm afraid the agent are dependant on their legal team with a mission to get the most out of their clients. We marketed a property with them and were so unhappy with their communication. We left them to another excellent agent. we sold the property with the new agency. The buyer did make an offer at some point via connells but was ridiculously low, so we rejected it. he appeared a few months later to the new agency and was convinced by the talented agents to put the price up which we accepted. Connells a year later are still chasing us for fees of introducing the buyer. Seems like we are funding them as they couldn't do the job! they never tried to convince the buyer to put the price up. Never ever to be used again! a headache agency. They managed to make the process so painful.
What agent could do to change your mind?
Respect their client and accept their failure in selling the property rather than chasing for money whilst they can to get anything from their client. Awful experience.Attached Filesnbsp;

Maybe I'd feel better about it if they called up and profusely apologised for their lack of communication and had a very good excuse. Help us get a good deal on a house without being all about their own wages!!Attached Filesnbsp;
