Today 1st August I was exchanging on a property purchased through Atwell Martin as exchange monies paid and ready to move forward with the completion date, I received an email from Jane slusarczy saying sorry the seller has decided not to go ahead with me on the day of exchange and has decided to go with someone else who has made a better offer, can someone please explain there have been no underhanded goings-on with the agent? Jane slusarczy stated she wasn't aware as she was away? But Josie Watkins was available who was also involved with the sale. This can only happen if the agent has continued to market the property underhanded on behalf of the seller showing others the property without informing me up to the point of exchange, my husband even went over to the property on Friday 26th July as the main drain could not be found but my husband did find and I informed the solicitor of the location of the drain I informed Atwell Martin also who thanked me and confirmed the exchange for early the following week, please tell me between Friday 26th & Thursday 1st August that they have resold the house, the seller has accepted the offer sent out the memorandum of sale, arranged solicitors all done through the post, not possible, my advice to any purchaser make sure you have an agreement in place with the seller & Atwell martin that once sold that no further marketing will take place as no doubt will do the dirty behind your back so buyer beware of this company Atwell Martin, we have arranged a removal company to move, our furniture is in storage which I have also informed we will be moving out all of our furniture, be careful of dealing with this company Atwell Martin as totally unprofessional and only interested in there commission and stabbing purchasers in the back, they lie to your face right up to the day of exchange, strange should I have twigged? as they totally blanked me as no emails returned they are obviously running a scam and I can only think of how the timeshare companies used to be allowed to operate but they were eventually outlawed, Atwell Martin are operating legally though the same way as these outlawed timeshare companies I am not sure yet where we stand legally on this as legal fees run into thousands which I have to pay, for this company not informing me and selling the house I was supposed to exchange on today please please be very very careful they will behind your back still try and sell the house you had set your heart on to buy, they will cause you a lot of misery, financial cost where they are all in their offices laughing knowing they have just stitched up another purchaser and made more commission the thing is they are getting away with it and nothing is being done to stop them, I think I will set up a petition with change.org and bring this to the attention of potential purchasers dealing with Atwell Martin, I am thinking of contacting the NAEA but there probably just as bad representing agents operating a scam because let’s face the agent pays them a fee to be a member so who are the NAEA going to represent and be on the side of? The agents of course.
