Is there anyone in this profession that is not completely incompetent?! 
 

I don’t understand what do to justify such exorbitant fees 😡😡😡

I hear you Luke. We sold our last house privately so didn't have to pay any agency fees, and we've also found a private buyer for our current house - hoping to move before the end of the SDH extension. Based on what I've seen of their "expertise" it makes me feel all warm inside that we've managed to avoid paying them, not only because of the savings, but because we don't like rewarding a service that contributes questionable value to the transaction process.

What issues are you having with them in your move?

One has.... (old house) 

Hopefully new house tomorrow. Estate agent said had no knowledge of the property when I chased them up on progress. I told the vendor, her response was let’s split their fees 50:50 off the purchase price.... suddenly agent remembers the property and it’s stopped me exchanging on new one today 😡😡😡😡

I got building materials to order for Saturday I want to get on with 🤣🤣🤣
