  • I'm in two minds about it. I get where you are coming from, but at the same time, if I made an offer on a place and then the EA when running around calling everyone who has ever viewed to try and get them to make a better offer I'd be pretty pissed off.

  • It's partly their job though, they are acting to get the best price/deal for the seller. So when I expressed significant interest, as in making it clear I'm ready to bid, I expect to be kept informed.

    I mean, of course, they can't go around saying Mr X offered £xxxxxx, but just communicate what's happening.

    edit - i'm not looking to gazump folk, to be clear, this was a case of the vendor considering an offer, it wasn't straight up accepted and off the market. I see that as the difference between 'under offer' and 'sold subject to contract'.
