On calling to make a viewing they make it a requirement to use and provide information to their third party mortgage advisor. You cannot view or make an offer before you’ve provided all your details to this third party who then provides them back to the estate agent. Not only is this ... Read Full Review

Used Whiteknights to value our property in 2020 after buying it in 2014. We paid £490k for it and having spent nearly £200k on very significant improvements and a large extension we were hoping for a figure north of £700k after 6 years of market returns. Gary said that ... Read Full Review

Rude. I have no other words than that. This woman has no kind of people skills and treated me like a criminal every single time I dealt with her.

They have had many chances to rectify their actions but I don\'t think its in their culture to make things right. They are just concerned about their sale, but after the sale, you are on your own.

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.
