On the day Peter Heron were supposed to come out and value our home they called to check they didn't have our estimate written down wrong as we'd be lucky to get £115000 for our house. The guy on the phone seemed like he didn't want to come out to value our home and basically cancelled the appointment at short notice using this as an excuse despite us explaining the increase in price from what we paid being due to a lot of work being done to the property. He claimed he'd be the first to apologise if we got more than £115 000 for our home despite not seeing it.
We just completed our sale for £135 000.
So use them if you aren't bothered about an extra £20 000 I guess. We certainly never will and nor will our families who also own numerous rental properties in addition to their own homes. A very short cited business view for the sake of a valuation wasn't it? We're waiting on that apology

What agent could do to change your mind?
If by "Would you use the agent again" you mean Peter Heron, then absolutely not. If you are referring to http://www.allagents.co.uk", then definitely yes. These despicable practices should be made public to stop others getting shafted.Attached Filesnbsp;

Thank you for your feedback. Having looked into this matter; I've been advised by my Lettings Team that you withdrew your interest in this property and as per our "holding deposit" agreement duly signed by yourselves, the deposit you paid was non refundable. Having removed the property from the lettings market whilst we obtained references and conducted a credit report in readiness of your tenancy; a lot of work had been carried out by our team and the fact you were unable to differentiate betw ...
