So you are an Estate Agent without a shop. The OP said you were an online only estate agent, hence the confusion.


I have bought and sold houses before without ever having been to an estate agent's shop.


Maybe you should call yourselves "No Shops" instead of "No Flies" ;)


Given the additonal info I cant see that you are much different from a normal estate agent excpet that you are significantly cheaper. Good luck!

I don't think you've got the hang of this, katanita. It should go something like:


"Having tried many of the established estate agencies in East Dulwich, I was left feeling crushed and devalued. Finally I found No Flies agency - they were like a breath of fresh air, and they really valued me as a client and as a person."

Dammmmmnn. You're quite right. And I should be using this post to get all defensive about my true identity as one of the directors of No Flies and accuse everyone of pursuing personal vendettas.


I'll get it right next time, promise, and remember to add the requisite telltale spelling mistakes and bizarre punctuation.

If I were ever to sell-up there would be nobody in the running except for Brendan. I thought "estate agent with integrity" was an oxymoron before meeting him. If you search for "No Flies" on the EDF then you will find plenty of recommendations from satisfied customers and I predict many more to come. Yes, they face challenges in the future but who doesn't.

A good idea. Although I'm very familiar with that classic thread already. Amazing.

Matthew123 as well. As for Mikecg, i thought he was gone long before that.

mcg was an oddbod. actually a nice enough fella who could contribute to a debate, but a short fuse, terrible bass youtube uploads, and some very big shoulder-based chips were his undoing.



...that and the concerted campaign enlisting hackers to break the forum with DoS attacks and the like....

They are advertising on the forum on the left-hand side banner, the name makes more sense - very clever. I've only ever heard good things about them too and I think they way they respond to queries on the forum is excellent.

Sadly, I'm old enough to remember when Virgin Records first opened for business (70s). That seemed like an outrageous name at the time but these days nobody bats an eyelid at an odd moniker (Orange, Apple, O2, Smeg, R Soles, Yahoo, Google, Flickr). Odd.

No, that is street art.

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
