We recently bought our first house through McGeowns. We found the pre sale process straightforward with the agent keeping us posted at all times. We found Tim to be straightforward and honest and quickly settled on a price with the vendor. Through the conveyancing Tim made sure the process kept moving and all in it was as hassle free, courteous and honest throughout as we could have wished for. At no time did we feel we were being put under undue pressure as we had with other agents which had resulted in us pulling out of previous sales.

What agent could do to change your mind?
They could have been more helpful throughout our tenancy, instead of fobbing us off and making us wait. Mold on walls in a house with two out of three residents having asthma is not good, and the fact that they didn't seem to care was concerning.

Theres always two sides to every story and then theres the truth never let the truth get in the way of a good story ? Its ironic that you say McGeown Estate Agents are rubbish for charging you for a missing wheelie bin ? I assume that when you rented the house you didnt have to look in the alleyway for the bin ? If properties are returned in the same condition that they were let in and all the fixtures and fittings accounted for it would make it much easier for us to return the deposit ? ...
