Selling through Gascoigne and Pees in Merrow, made us realise where a good agent (like G-Pees) justifies its fees. Its pre-sales - where they keep a portfolio of potential buyers ready for when appropriate properties come to market, And post-sales - where there is a whole load of progress chasing needed to keep the chain informed and held together when people lose faith / patience.
Gascoigne and Pees in Merrow did a grand job on both the above matters. The chain got long and complicated; Tom Miles did a great job finding out what was going on despite some reluctance with certain agents in the chain. Tom would phone anyone and keep digging. Without his efforts, we would certainly have given up and walked away from the whole transaction.
Pre-sales, they had a strategy for how to advertise the price and it worked well

Comment on agent fees
Quite expensive. Percentage basis on a pricey property is quite a lot of money. However we did get good value in terms of pre-sales finding of prospective buyers and post-sales progress chasing

Outstanding performance from the Gpees team in Guildford.

Reasonable... not Purple Bricks but not Hamptons either... And based on the work they did to get this over the line, I don't think it would have been possible in a Purple Bricks model.

We have recently purchased our property in Merrow through Gascoigne Pees. I must say , their valuation is very practical and makes sense. Prior viewing property with Gascoigne Pees, we had bitter experience with Burns and Webber. We felt, their valuation was over priced. Even though ...

As to be expected. Slightly cheaper than some other agents. It is a pity that the price is not reflected in the length of time time to sell the property.

Comment on agent fees
The house was valued at ‚£389,950. We sold ‚£14,950 under this incurring extra Solicitor's fees due to first buyer not going ahead. This together with agent's fees made final settlement amount lower than originally anticipated.
