Comment on agent fees
in my humble opinion the fees do not reflect the amount of work involved in this purchase. ie they earn a lot of money for not a lot of obvious work. [i realise that not all properties taken on by any one agent get sold by that agent, but i don't like the idea of subsidising non-deals.]

Hi John, thanks for this feedback. Agreed, we can always work harder to try to limit these delays and good communication should be the key to managing the expectations of our clients. It has been difficult recently with a lack of qualified surveyors, and the mortgage review process is slowing the conveyencing process. Thanks for the review. I have shared it with my colleagues and I hope you like the living in the new flat. ...

Dear Alessandra, I am sorry that you have felt this way and even sorrier that you have felt the need to write such a negative review. Firstly in regards to the open day, as mentioned to you on the phone and in the email I sent to you early on Monday morning I can 100% vouch for Anthony. He arrived at the property at 9.45am and the viewer was already waiting outside in the car park. Anthony spent 5 minutes talking to the gentleman and then came in to see you. I know this because Anthony cal ...

I am sorry that you are not happy with the service we provided. To address your concerns, firstly the price was in part dictated by the sheer number of flats that have come to the market within the same development at the same time – there are still a number of flats there which are empty as they have been priced too highly. We would always recommend a client has a PAT (Portable Appliance Test) test in order to protect them. I must apologise as it seems that this was not fully explaine ...
