Hi All
There is another thread here, discussing bidding, which has highlighted the website www.APTI.ie.
I am currently looking at a property and after my initial bid of 10% below asking, I was very quickly informed there was a higher bid. So wanting to get transparency, as the site suggests, I signed up. However there seems to be very little activity on the site - the FAQ's state that they will not show a list of EA's who use the site. I presume that this is since the list would be too small.
I viewed the property for a second time today and asked if the EA had an affiliation with APTI - the EA had never even heard of them, which left me assuming this co. is all talk, no substance.
Its a good idea in principle - but what happens for example if I get into a bidiing situation - with another party who do not have internet access - how are their bids recorded etc....plus without the buy in of agents its going nowhere fast.
Just wondering what everyones else's thoughts are on the service, and if anyone else has used them and what their experiences are.
cheers
Paddy
