Top Marks to the team at Watford.
We have been through one of the most complex sales. We have had our highs & lows, we have had our laughs & frustrations but we fought together to get this done. I feel I have got to know you all so well with all the calls & emails exchanged between us. My biggest and heartfelt thanks to Scott, Luke and Tony - guys we done it!!! Credit to you all....

Worst, they will lie tpo you to get their contract signed to higher Asking price saying its just a representative they need to put on contract and then after the sale would force you to pay the higher fees even though they would sell it for less.
