  • Planning to fairly imminently ..
    What sort of rates are people getting from estate agents? Best we've been offered is 1.5%. Is it likely to be able to negotiate it down closer to 1%?

  • We got it down to 1%(+VAT) with one estate agent who was shit and was then happy to pay 1.5% (no VAT) to an agent who worked his balls off. Our solicitor's secretary still thought we were paying him an extortionate amount and queried it but even 1% of a London property is still a shit load of money.
