  • Is there a high service charge? Is the lease too low. Can you link to rightmove so we can give an objective view on what the problem might be?

    (d) Number of viewings - now there's the rub. According to the EA only one person has shown an interest in 6 months, and they withdrew. Even in a depressed market I find that remarkable when the property is so markedly cheaper than other offerings.

    EA's only get paid when they sell something. So unlikely they would hold back. Particularly in the current poor selling market. Houses in general are taking months to sell now if at all.

    Yes but the point is whether the ea is trying to get property for buddy. I find it peculiar behaviour based on what the op has said.
