Dear 'Brixton purchaser'. I wasn't able to determine which property you purchased through us, however I am sorry to hear that you would not purchase through us again. You are quite right to point out that we are employed by the seller, and we work for the seller to achieve the best price possible. Most sales aren’t without their issues, and we always work hard to overcome any obstacles to the satisfaction of all parties. I am glad to hear that you recognise that any issues were � ...

Dear Mr Sutherland, Firstly I am sorry to hear via a review site that you were unhappy with the service you received from us. We work with hundreds of landlords each year and although we offer every landlord the option to use our tenancy agreement and guarantor agreements free of charge, we cannot insist upon this. In my opinion, I do happen to agree that in this case the landlord’s own agreement is not drafted as well as our own guarantor agreement, however at the point where you were ...
