They first marketed the property at a price that was far too expensive, after a few weeks they changed the price to a much lower `offers over`. Seeing this had happened i rang them for a viewing and was told it had gone under offer.I then gave them my number asking them to let me know if the sale had fallen through.
Quite a while later and id been busy & away for a month on my return i checked out the website to find it was now going to auction within 2 weeks.[I also found out the survey wasnt great either...housebaot in a fab community...i met and know somebody who lives on it!!] I rang them for a viewing & asked what happened as i knew the original buyers hadnt sold their house 6 weeks ago. We viewed it, it was lovely but i got the feeling it was a `done deal`..when i viewed....the agent said fox and sons had sold the original couples house now who had put up the offer.........I rang with an offer, no return call, I rang again, again no return call. i just phoned the auction department and they told me that they were sure that it had been sold and should ve been removed although it continues to be unsold on the websites. they will confirm tomorrow when i phone them but all in all.....waste of my time & would nt reccomend them at all to be honest.

On a number of occasions we spoke to the manager and he always said I will get back to you and more often than not never did! We had to ring him back! When we made an offer on a property he did not even ...
