So we saw a house and phoned up for an appointment. All fine and went and saw the property and loved it. So we put an offer in and our told ours is the best offer on the table but there is one other and it is slightly lower. At this point were told the vendor has decided to go to a sealed bid which will be opened Thursday at 12pm. So we make our sealed bid, deliver it a day early (Wednesday morning) and expect to hear back Thursday afternoon. Then suddenly Wednesday afternoon we get a call from Andrew Grainger office. Were told the other buyer has come in with an offer 25k over asking and so the vendor has accepted. Then they ask if i still want them to open my bid.
Questions:
Why did they open or accept an offer before Thursday 12pm when it was suppose to be sealed until then?
Surely the vendor would at least want to look at all the offers before making his decision?
Even if the these two questions are answered why didn't they wait until Thursday after 12pm to call us, therefore not making us dubious of the whole process?
Why did they undervalue a house by 25k?! and is this common practice for them to start a bidding war?

As you can see, nothing adds up. Were walking away from the deal but wonder if the vendor is in full knowledge of all the facts an hope he isn't being as miss-informed as we were.
We also wonder if we are going to get a call in a couple of weeks saying the other buyer has dropped out but "if we can match his offer its ours"....

If you have to deal with Andrew Grainger i would be very very careful.
What agent could do to change your mind?
Be honest. Be fair.

Please disregard this review!!!!
I have asked for it to be removed from this website.
I wrote it and later had a meeting with the agents.
They were transparent and honest in their explanation of the facts of the matter. They were acting on the best interests of their client and did nothing that could be seen as suspect or dishonest. They were professional in their documentation of events.

Again please disregard this review and i hope allagents.co.uk remove it asap as requested by me.

Hello I was very disappointed to read your comments and would invite you to discuss this in more detail by calling me on my direct line 01858 439096. In the meantime I can confirm that we do not have any property on our portfolio where we have asked somebody to leave in order to sell and then rented it out again. We take our clients instructions and if they are unable to sell we may have a situation where the property is put back onto the rental market. Obviously there are opportunities for an ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
You could've stopped making it seem all you wanted was money. you could help future clients with their quires. FIX things when they need to be fixed and don't make stupid excuses. Think of things as if they were you personally, think how you'd feel if you were treated the way you treat us. the only reason i used you was because you were the main occupiers for the renting properties. lesson learnt. never again. Thanks

Andrew Granger & Co strive hard to provide a professional service to both our landlords and tenants and we would welcome the reviewer to contact the office directly and we can hopefully address any issues he or she may have. Occasionally it can be difficult to obtain access to properties for viewings especially when the current tenant is still in occupation. Our landlords are very much involved in the process of choosing the right applicant and this can unfortunately take time but we would ne ...

Be professional, organised, efficient and remember that "an Englishman's home is his castle" ie people have feelings, go to work, and would like some notice before they organise hords of contractors at THEIR convenience! Their lack of consideration is causing me a LOT of unecessary stress :-(
