We were miss-sold property from Oscar James estate agents and we don’t recommend anyone going through them or else you will face lot of issues, like what we are going through now. We have just completed 5weeks ago but facing lot of issues due this agency.
Initially we mentioned to Oscar James that we were interested in the investment property, so after few months when there was one HMO Oscar James has shown the property, we were shown all the rooms except one room when we asked the estate agent they mentioned that tenant was not feeling well.
Then we asked if the room is in good condition and there are no issues, they mentioned it is in good condition and no issues. They were talking very diplomatically and nicely to sell the property at the time of purchasing we didn’t know and we thought they were giving correct information but they broke our trust and honesty.
We thought of doing survey they somehow discouraged and said valuation is enough.
Seriously they have not disclosed lot of information to us, which we didn’t know when purchasing the property we thought they were telling truth but that was not correct.
After the completion of the property, we found several surprises and this agent didn’t do his due diligence and played on our honesty and the Room1 where they said that tenant was not feeling well, but actually after completion when we spoke to tenant, tenant mentioned she was fine and she would have showed if she was asked to show the room.
The room which the agent didn’t show purposely telling room is good has lot of works which costs between £15000 to £20000 which was a shocking surprise.
There are more issues as well which was not disclosed, this agent didn’t do there due diligence and was only interested in selling and also pressurized saying that you will loose the property if the deal is not done and it is a good buy.
There is lot to mention.
But As per the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 Act they haven’t provided all the relevant information.
Please I never thought I would be writing this review but seriously we are facing lot of issues because of this miss-sold property from Oscar James.
We just want to give heads up to the prospective buyers.
We have dealt with other estate agents but never faced the issues and they were very clear about all the condition of the house and showing every room in detail.
