Little update. I have gone back to them and said if you want to put it on the market at £230k then go ahead subject to me checking the estate agents terms of engagment to check for a couple of points, these include

1. Clause stating fee becomes payable if they find a ready, willing and able purchaser

2. Unnecessarily long contract length prohibiting other courses of action during the engagement

3. Unnecessarily high estate agent fees

Anything else I should be aware of?

Once again, to all who have contributed I appreciate your comments
