After the first viewing, I offered 600,000 to the landlord through the agent Douglas Allen – Hornchurch. As the first offer was rejected, David, the Senior Partner of the Agent requested me to increase my offer. He kept emphasized that he represented the vendor only but not me (the buyers). The...

I dealt with David Tomlins and Chelsey Baldwin throughout the sale of our property. David managed to get well above our initial target and what other estate agents were expecting to achieve. Chelsey was very easy to contact and deal with regarding all aspects of the sale. I would highly recommend... Read Full Review

Thank you Douglas Allen, Hornchurch, for selling my house and enabling me to buy the house I want. The sale took a long time, but thank you to Chelsey and all the team at Douglas Allen, Hornchurch for your hard work in making it all go through.

Was positive to begin with until *tried to stitch me up with rates in order to fit into his listings deadline. Originally started on 1.3% + VAT. Wanted to speak to someone we knew internally about negotiation but when the topic came up, *he denied he offered us 1.3% + VAT and upped it to 1.4% +... Read Full Review


Comments on Agent Fees

They vary depending on the team targets, can be way more flexible if they desperately want to list your house as they have targets based on this. However make sure you get rates in writing as they can up by cowboy agents that fail to hit targets. I was offered 1.3% - 1.4% + VAT

Selling and buying our new home has been a stressful experience and we don't plan to do it again! The valuation of our property went well, a few hiccups whilst the sale was ongoing and then we found a buyer. I must admit from putting the house on sale to finding a buyer went quick. Thereafter...

First off, you should negotiate the fees as they are very expensive and we honestly didn't think to try and reduce the cost as we were under time pressure to move. Douglas Allen were involved further along the chain so we thought it would be a good plan to use them for our sale. We agreed that we... Read Full Review

What agent could do to change your mind?

They should have just provided a valuation in accordance with the agreement we had made, and not tried to obtain this house on the cheap.
