Selling a deceased parent's house is difficult enough without having to second guess "your" agent
Regulation needed
So #Tories won't, #Reform won't
#Labour won't (because they're chasing Reform)
Any hope of #Clown #Liberals or #Greens doing anything?

The agent would not play i.e. he refused to "pass on my offer" to either seller. Not even with a recommendation that neither buyer should accept
Should they have refused to list two adjacent semis because that was a conflict of interest?

Showing conflicts of interest everywhere, & not acting in interests of their customer
An Agent last century was offering 2 semis (attached to one another). I offered my fair value on both, saying I would take the first to accept. Agent wouldn't play
"A worse deal because it is not as valuable to the agent"
Says it all

As a member of #SkiptonBuildingSociety, I am concerned at how #Connells, a #SBS subsidiary, is behaving. It seems to conflict with the values that the mutual Building Society promotes
#BBCPanorama #Panorama #UnderCoverEstateAgency
#Connells is of course owned by #SkiptonBuildingSociety
Conflict of interest?
House Buying/Selling
and
Mortgage Provision

#EstateAgents "have a code"?
Secret talk not understood by their customers or a code of behaviour?
#BBCPanorama #Panorama #UnderCoverEstateAgency
You are looking for an #EstateAgent to sell your house
They recommend a price, presumably low enough for them
to easily sell it
or do they sit on the property (doing sweet FA) until someone offers a high price
(with a "good" commission for doing SFA)?

When will consumers realise that if a company offers to do something for "free" (i.e. sell your house), they must be making their money via another route?

A 15 day "response to complaints" about #EstateAgency is pathetic when you hope to sell "within weeks"

Is #EstateAgency, like #FuneralDirectos, a business where the customer has little experience, understanding or power?
Is this exploited by agencies?
Silly Question! This is "Corporate UK", dedicated to #greed
