Extremely disappointed by their treatment. We were bidders on a property advertised by ian macklin and were incorrectly told my them that the property would go to "last and final bid" hence to wait for this, but then out of the blue were told no more bids would be taken and blamed the seller for changing their mind. We still persuaded them to take our bid and present it to the seller (which they said they did) and we were told the seller didn't accept our bid (which was cash). We assumed someone else had a higher bid, fair enough. Subsequently we found out through the "prices sold" feature on rightmove that the property had actually sold for 25k lower than our bid !!! Absolutely shocking.

14 Feb 2021Thank you for your comments which I would like to look into in more detail. There can be many reasons for the purchase price of a property to change during a transaction unfortunately. I would be interested to hear more and would really appreciate you contacting me at the Hale office on 0161 928 9510. Best regards. Robert Macklin.

24 Feb 2021Thank you for your comments 'Frank' which we take very seriously. I am unclear as to which property you are specifically referring to so will have to address it in more general terms. A Vendor can choose to accept any offer they wish at any point, whether it has been advertised as 'best offers' or not. Some buyers do make offers subject to a property being taken off the market and that may have happened in this case. That moves on to the price being less than your offer. The purchase price can change during a transaction at any time and again it is a Vendors prerogative to renegotiate or remarket. I would also make very clear that every offer we receive is put forward, we have a legal obligation to do so and there are no grey areas there. I would always welcome the opportunity to discuss with you and can always be reached on 0161 904 0654 or 0161 928 9510.

Good competitive fees.
Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
