It's not sellers currently putting this in place, it's pretty standard for every agent I've dealt with at the moment. This is the situation I'm in, couldn't view/secure anything until we were under offer, now under offer there's bugger all suitable about.

Agents can only do what the sellers tell them though? If you're selling and you say to the agents you don't want them to filter offers by people with theirs sold already, then I would have thought they have to allow more views - they act for the seller.
Don't tell me that though, that's literally what I'm worried is about to happen to me as we're looking to put ours on the market!

This behaviour is kind of inevitable if sellers say they only want offers from 'proceedable' buyers though. You have to have agreed to sell to view somewhere; what are you supposed to do if you can't then find somewhere you like?
