PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

We'd like to remind Forumites to please avoid political debate on the Forum. This is to keep it a safe and useful space for MoneySaving discussions. Threads that are - or become - political in nature may be removed in line with the Forum’s rules. Thank you for your understanding.

[FONT=&quot]MOVE LOCATION Agency = AVOID. A group [text removed by MSE Forum Team] that call themselves 'a freelancing agency'[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Completely unprofessional, ill mannered.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Viewed houses with them, liked one. The 'agent' was compulsive,pushy and dominant. He did not know anything about the house or details.He asked me to contact the landlord for details while we were viewing the house!!!!! He could not provide me with a number to contact the landlord or neither arrange a meeting with the landlord. He was only interested in me paying him the £200 agency fee 'asap' to 'book the house'. They could give me no written documentation at any time.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I found a nice place myself. Please do NOT trust this agency. [text removed by MSE Forum Team] Roaming in a car showing people houses doesn't make you an housing agency. [text removed by MSE Forum Team][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Take care. [/FONT]

    I've never heard of them before. Where abouts in Cardiff are they based?

    Be mindful just because you had a bad experience with one employee of the company, it doesn't mean that the whole of agency is 'scum'.

    The amount of weight your warning carries is tempered by the calculation people here will do in their head...something like

    Number of posts/100 *argument

    So that gives you 1/100 of an argument
