I just left an inquiry for a property, a moment later the landlord messaged me asking his relevant questions. He then ended the conversation saying they've had over 120 inquiries and he's found a tenant. Once a property is let out why not take your advert down rather than wasting peoples efforts. We are in covid times and things are not easy as it is.

    I have just sold my London home using Visum.

All they do is advertise the property on Rightmove and Zoopla and wait for enquiries to ... Read Full Review


    What agent could do to change your mind?

    Excellent. Sold my house for £100. The cheapest high street agent charges 1% + VAT would have been almost £5k.

    The whole process took a long time, hence my delay in writing the review, but that was a problem with the buyer's solicitor. The 'sale' occurred pretty quickly.

    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.

    Complaints Procedure

    We follow the Property Ombudsman code of conduct, so rest assured that if you have a complaint it will be resolved fairly.
