Ben Laidler offered exceptional service, in fact “above and beyond”. We could not fault his commitment, dedication and professionalism. He worked all hours and even secured our sale at 10pm on a Saturday evening whilst he was out for dinner. We had a tricky chain ...

Hello Simon, Thank you for your professional email on here, it's a shame that the emails you sent behind the scenes off the back of this review were incredibly rude and you labelled me a 'bully' as I didn't agree with your opinion. This really does reinforce why I wrote my comments above. ...

We chose Michael Graham after disappointing experiences with other agents – incuding one of the national premium brands for marketing £1m-plus homes. This time we were not disappointed. The photography was significntly better than any of the others and the brochure presented our house ...

Reasonable. Good compared with the major national premium brands, and good value compared with cheaper agencies and franshises whose service and expertise did not come close.

Comment on agent fees
Michael Graham considers itself to be the best estate agent and has fees consistent with this. To command fees at this level, the service provided needs to be faultless. The claims made on Micahel Graham's website of 'offer(ing).....an exemplary personal service for sellers' and including 'feedback and communication with our clients' are baseless and not justified.

High fees, unfortunately the service does not match. We were not looking for value for money, we had hoped to receive an excellent service. On this occasion, we wasted our money.

Yep, so far all I've had is crap legal & contractual knowledge, crap interpersonal skills, no negotiation skills & a belief (not unique to MGL sadly) that they hold all the cards. They don't.
