We phoned this agency today to request a viewing for Ayton Grove in Manchester. We are cash buyers and the agent refused to allow us a first viewing of the property without documented evidence of proof of funds. This is absolutely ludicrous as we have never been asked for this by any other estate agents and I am not willing to produce a heap of paperwork in advance for a first viewing. The agent was completely unwilling to budge on this even after I mentioned that I would be more than willing to provide proof of funds to an agency were I to make an offer on one of their properties.
This has completely put us off seeing any houses with this agency and I would advise any prospective sellers or purchasers to steer well clear.
What agent could do to change your mind?
If you want to sell more houses you may wish to consider asking for proof of funds when a buyer actually puts an offer in and not try to put them off right at the start of the process by demanding paperwork for a first viewing. There are plenty of other competitors in Manchester who buyers can go to instead of you.
