Sellers beware! Do not use if you want your property to sell quickly or at all for that matter. I put an offer on a property in Leeds it was over what they were asking. I sent documents in documents as we both wanted to exchange quickly. I kept calling and emailing only to find out that for a week they had gone with another offer and did not bother to tell me!!! I rang to speak to the person in charge and they said "my co worker did try to contact you!!! Amateurs!!! I wrote to them on their website to make a formal complaint and nothing.

I understand everyone's experience will be different, but from our dealings with Strike, I would avoid like the plague. We were buying a house through strike as that is who the sellers were using. All throughout the process communication has been very poor. Questions left ...
