Hi,
Our house has been on the market for almost 4 months (not bad i know) with an EA who is not very good at communicating with us (never keeps us up to date). We have only had 1 viewing in the last 3 months.
DCC sometimes buy property in the area so we decided that we would check them out. They are sending out a surveyor and the lady in DCC said the process takes about 10-12 weeks altogether before offer is made.
Got a phonecall from an angry EA this morning to say that valuer from DCC was in his office requesting a brochure on the house. EA says he knows the valuer and that he wants us to ring DCC to say that he will be dealing with the sale.
Should we have discussed this with the EA firstly?
EA also says that DCC will not offer the asking price and will offer maybe 20000-30000 less. EA said that because he knows the valuer that he will more than likely get the asking price if not more. I know that EA is getting his 0.8% from the sale.
Has he a right to do this or should we not have gone behind his back?
