Comment on agent fees
Can't for the life of me see how a basic contract is ‚£275, that was disgraceful in all honesty. Happy enough with ‚£100 admin fee and the ‚£70 for the check-in service. Not quite sure how ringing my old landlord & boss up warrants ‚£150 for the 2 of us either. Was really happy with Bairstow's service & the property we have, but those fees were revolting at best.

What agent could do to change your mind?
Maxine used her knowledge of the local rental market and brought with her examples. She stated that my 1 bedroom Mews House was not the norm in the area and that it was a lovely quirky building. She set the rental fee, based on what she thought was reasonable in the area for 975.00 per month. I then said that I wanted ‚£1000,00. she thought that it would not be unreasonable to market at that price and then there is room or negotiation.
