I do think the agents fee is a bit much, infact I believe it's gone up in the last 2-3 years, however I do understand there's a fee for a service provided.

I believe that all fee's may be a little steep, however these were very low and adequate compared to other fees in the area, they cost more than half the amount of other agents we had searched for the Stockport area.
