What a very bad experience.
We found a small wooded area we wanted to purchase in Hensol. We contacted Elliott who was eager for our custom and was happy to accept an offer well above asking price. After securing a solicitor, 5 days later we had a call off Elliott saying we have been outbid. We eventually lost the land even after offering £11,000 above asking price. He then suggest purchasing another small bit of wooded area which was a parcel of land already up for sale. He confirmed the sellers were happy to separate the land and sell to us but wanted approximately £30,000. This was far too much for the small woods so we offered £26,000. Elliott said they’d be happy with that and he would put it forward. We have now been waiting since the 9th October (9 weeks). Elliott suddenly left and we were left with Sam and robin who we spoke to numerous times for a decision. The land was still on their website being advertised but we still had no decision. We rang them Tom day 9th December to be told it’s all now been taken off the market. No one hadthe courtesy to call the 4 times we were promised a courtesy call. So if we haven’t rang today wondering when we would know if the land Is ours we would still be waiting. This has been the worst experience ever and we have been left so deflated. Extremely unprofessional and we are gutted. We are not on their waiting list for possible land purchase but now too scared to raise our hopes incase this happens all over again.

What agent could do to change your mind?
There was nothing they could do to change our mind. Robin Jones rarely answer the telephone as I'm sure he felt he was too important to deal with the public and in fact I'm sure he actually thought he was doing you a favour by giving you his permission to purchase a property!Attached Filesnbsp;

What agent could do to change your mind?
The agent did not carry out regular inspections of the house as agreed. The tenants had pets which had bern disallowed. The carpets were stinking of cat wee. The door frames had been scratched. The young inexperienced lady I dealt with did not have a clue ! The man in charge had plenty of charm but did not solve the issues.Attached Filesnbsp;

What agent could do to change your mind?
- Conduct thorough inspections during the tenancy - not just of the house, but of the garden and out-buildings too. - Acknowledge when they have made mistakes and try to rectify said mistakes. - Keep the landlord/landlady informed about maintenance issues at the property. - Improve their customer service generally.Attached Filesnbsp;
