estate agent fees nearly 2k is this fair?

baron777red

we have contacted taylors, jon stanier and the property shop

it was jon staniers that quoted us on the amounts i said

and as for getting 75k to 85k max, after i bought it in aug 2005, house prices went up for a year or so, before the recent slump so i think we should break about even, and also there are a lot of FTB's buying now as interest rates re low.

ok - just warning you. According to the Halifax it would have gone down
An average house, in the West Midlands region valued at £100000 in 2005 Q3 would be worth £95113 in 2008 Q4.

A change of -4.9 percent. We've had more drops since

Edit: Interest rates aren't that good for FTBs. With a 50% deposit the best rate I got in November was 4.69%.

Eh?

What?

FTB interest rates are 6% MINIMUM. And that's with a 10% deposit.
