Be careful of believing the hype of it being £30k more than you thought was sensible. You did your research and thought £260k was right, buyers will do the same.
Find an agent that will charge something like 1 - 1.5%, one that impresses you sufficiently when you meet them to be happy to pay them that and put it on at £275k.
Most areas will have one or two good firms amongst the dross, that fact you're undecided means you just haven't found them yet.

How do you tell? They all seem to be the same kind of person saying the same thing

I understand that a bit of caution is sensible, but if they say they can get to 290 by aiming for 300, should I just ignore that and put it up for 275? Seems a bit too cautious. Surely I'm paying £5k for them to use their experience and get me a good price?

Yep. Just had traditional agents Acorn around and they want to charge me £5,000 as a flat fee. Both agents said the flat is around £290,000, which is a surprise.
Not sure what to do.
