Such a bunch of con artists, they keep 400 I paid for "marketing that has no benefited me in anyway and will keep it even if they don't sell it,so i cant take it off the market as i cant lose money like that.
What agent could do to change your mind?
Don't be con artists an miss sell, just to get our money I want to warn people not to use Palmer Snell, it¢â‚¬â„¢s a good call you don¢â‚¬â„¢t have twitter/facebook and I have emailed the property Ombudsman and Rogue Traders. I feel ripped off with the extra marketing that I paid for as you had no intention of trying to get 105,000 for our property. We had you come round and value our property advised to you we could not physically go under 102,000. If you feel we cannot get this please say and we will keep it off the market. Your estate agent was optimistic (a good salesman) didn't give us an evaluation but asked what we were looking for. The fact that we said no lower than 102,000 he even stated ¢â‚¬Å“I could try and get a couple grand more¢â‚¬Â so we stated at 105,000 and see what would happen.. Two weeks later we still didn't have a for sale sign and I received a phone call saying we have had no interest how do you feel lowering it to 100,000????? . To make matters worse I signed to say i am happy to pay 400+ vat for "extra marketing purposes" which YOU have even if you don¢â‚¬â„¢t sell so if I decide to leave or go with an extra estate agent you have made 400 pounds out of me for doing nothing. I have no evidence of these extra perks and it hasn't helped in anyway. I just wish i had listened to my head and not used Palmer Snell as I have been with other estate agents and they do enough to get interest without the extra money involved.   I am still waiting for someone to do an Energy Performance Certified despite me saying I already had one and I knew it as valid for 10 years I didn't need one, your estate agent said well I will take 200 pounds off his commission and I may as well get an up to date one.
