Surveyor lack of respect for my home
Comments

He also on wet day, walked from the garden into my home, through to childrens rooms, leaving a trail of muddy marks and leafs throughout house. Then once went through house, went into garden again last, and then repeated the same. If my house needed to be modernized, or going through repair work, then it may be cleaner to keep shoes on. We've done the house immaculate for sale. My buyers expect that, and just mad, that Ive got to go over his shabby work he has left.david29dpo wrote: »I do know how you feel. I had a agent round to value a flat i was selling, walked in with filthy shoes over a cream carpet then throw his briefcase on the worktop knocking the kettle flying. Told him to leave there and then.
If the agent treats your house like that, then you did the right thing, my agent was very respectful to my home, and also sometimes they have to show buyers around home, so need to be able to trust they will say remove shoes etc. Also look after your home, and leave how it in the same condition as seen.0 -

If there's a problem that he's caused, take photos for evidence purposes. Ring the EA as he would of phoned them for access details and they will know which company he works for. Then put in a complaint if you feel strongly about itTo love and be loved is the greatest happiness of existance - Sydney Smith0

speak with the agent (your representative) and put your complaint on record.
the EA should have seen a business card to confirm the firm, so ask who the firm was and write to them. The EA should give you this information and if they didnt ask for ID then you need to seriously question who they allowed in."enough is a feast"...old Buddist proverb0 -
As a homeowner you would be perfectly entitled to ask visitors to remove shoes on entering your house. Didn't you know your garden gets muddy in the rain?Been away for a while.0
