The fees were set fairly from the beginning. Significantly additional hours were spent that would not have been anticipated when the fee was set.

More expensive than your on line agent options but you are paying for an actual service of someone who earns their money to sell your house and only gets paid when they do!

The VAT element wasn’t originally mentioned so the fees were higher than I would have liked. And based on the amount of work I also did, again I would say that the fee was higher than I would have liked.

Dear Patrick Again more variations of the truth from your company. If you check your records I vacated the property on the 19th May the tenancy ended on the 31st when the keys were returned. I can provide email evidence to the before mentioned if you require. The deposit was returned on the 21st June and only after I was forced to raise a dispute with the TDS and several emails to your company. I would also like to point out that no extra days were given the keys were returned to your office ...
