What drew me to house simple in all honesty was the price of fixed fee and no sale no fee. I was however a little disappointed with that as when you don't use there conveyance recommendations etc the price goes up by about �500! Which is not made clear on first sight. However regardless of that ... Read Full Review

I would thoroughly recommend House Simple. We sold our house in 4 days for �5000 more than the asking price because we had competing buyers. It's great that you can arrange you own viewings outside 'normal' office hours without the need to go through a middle man. The photos were first class too, ... Read Full Review

I have had a 100% good experience using House Simple. What I liked best was the ability to be in control myself and have input into the photos and description and get instant notifications about enquiries.

Great service, easy to use and a big saving compared to a high street estate agent. You manage your own bookings, which I like, and then you manage offers all online.

As most people have said we were very cynical in using an online estate agent rather than a local one. However we decided to take the plunge after being out the loop and being in our property for 22 yrs. If I could some it up this is a very professional outfit, with very friendly people in all ...

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.
