Compare local estate agent fees, worked out ok for me.

Hi All,

I recently came across https://www.netanagent.com whilst looking for an estate agent to market my property. To be honest I could not be arsed with getting countless calls form people telling me they could sell my property.

I listed my property at lunchtime and by the time I got home after work I had 7 quotes from local estate agents outlining the fees and marketing that they were willing to offer. Not bad considering it is a free service. Of course I understand they must be paid a commission by whichever agent wins the business to sustain it but I thought it was quite clever as for me as a user it didn't cost a penny.

Received 11 quotes in total (3 of which were internet agents) and may instruct one as it was at 0.95% with no minimum contract.

I may have been lucky and the service went as expected for me. It may not work as well for anyone else so don't bash me if it's not as good for you :)
Things are far easier than you think.
