Advice on estate agent fees in ED (for 3 bed house)


moglees

Recommended Posts

We are looking to sell our 3-bed Victorian terraced house next Spring and have started speaking to a few estate agents. Official fees seem to be quite steep and to vary. I understand however you can haggle quite hard for reduced percentages. Our house has recently been extended and refurbished so should be quite marketable.


I wonder if anyone can share the best rates that they were able to secure locally, and with who?


Any advice greatly appreciated!

Very helpful and prompt, thank you tllm2 and edcam. Do you have any recommendations of particular agents that have been good in your experience? Seems to be quite hit and miss. We bought through Foxtons and I like one guy there but feel rather bitter about using them for historic reasons!

Hi Moglees


Our fees are much lower than those of a high street agent as we do not have the overheads of a shiny high street office and we have plenty of recommendations on this site so please send a private message or call us on 020 7737 8047 if interested.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
