I used Howards' Gorleston Branch to sell my property in Belton, Norfolk. In a difficult market, it took a while and a drop in price before a concrete offer was received. Once the offer was received, the handling of the sale process by Gemma and Bobbie was first class, especially since the ... Read Full Review

The fees were fine, although the initial valuation of the property proved to be too optimistic.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
