The service you receive for agency fee you pay is very poor (misinforming, delayed contact, you need to print, scan and send everything yourself). I wouldn't recommend Cintra Estates services.
What agent could do to change your mind?
Keep customer informed what is happening. Not delaying contact (phone or emails). Not arrange viewing for few people at the same time slot and thus wasting your time. Keeping customer better informed.
