What agent could do to change your mind?

I just feel the selling fees are rather high. Other companies do offer lower prices and although I am very happy with the service I may be tempted to go for a cheaper option next time. If your prices were more competitive it may help as if I had know the cheaper prices before I would of gone with another company.

Comments on Agent Fees

I received a 25% discount on Peter Heron\'s tenant finders fee, so I was more than pleased. The 10% monthly maintenance fee is pretty standard, I believe.
