I recently purchase a flat being sold through Portico.
My day job is a mortgage broker, so I've experienced estate agents right across the spectrum.
Portico were everything you'd want as a vendor: proactive, determined and communicative with all parties.
Particular credit goes to Mark ...

I was very happy. I was offered a higher fee if they sold at a higher price which I felt was positive. They definately tried to get me the best price.

Since Portico took over the property we've been renting for years, it's been an absolute nightmare.
