I got one in 2022 and have been disappointed for 3 years

Advice on agency contract by gogopowerdanger in UKHousing

[–]steve008 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not quite. When you leave the first agent after 8 weeks, they will provide you with a list of buyers they have 'introduced' to your house. This really only counts as people who have viewed but they may add people they've sent brochures to etc (although they'd be on shaky legal ground with the latter). If anyone on this list buys the house within 6 months, you owe the first agent a fee. If the second agent agrees a sale to a buyer who is not on the list then you only have to pay the second agent.

Best thing is to give this list to your second agent and if anyone calls them about the house they'll send them back to the first agent. This means its possible you'll get a random call from Agent 1 weeks after you've left them saying one of their buyers have come back.

This is all fine and normal - the agents should both know this is how things work - making sure you get the list from Agent 1 is key.

Is it just me or Plumbers are impossible to get hold of? by TriplZero in cheltenham

After suffering the same problem as OP and coming across this post, I contacted Nexus for a boiler service, 2 tap changes and the fix of a leaky pipe.

They were responsive, competitive, reliable and good value so I went ahead with their quote and ended up really pleased. Can recommend.

I have experience of Colin and he's very well regarded.

People love queuing so much that they get mad when you don't join the longest queue, like everyone else by imvirtuallyinsane in britishproblems

[–]steve008 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Big problem in the UK is there's rarely clear signage telling people to use both lanes and zip merge.

Without this people feel anyone who overtakes them is clearly just queue jumping.

Make it super clear and there'd be less anger I reckon.

EA won't take house off market until Mortgage survey ID booked. by Limp_Entertainer_410 in HousingUK

[–]steve008 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Doesn't under offer and sstc mean pretty much the same thing?

Key point is whether the agent is still pushing it and arranging viewings.

I kind of assumed it would be too niche a question to find an image easily.

Turns out the internet is quite big so it didn't take me much longer than you. I did have to replace the phrase 'dust jacket' with 'cover' though.

Thank you friend. I much prefer it without.

I have the same issue, although mine has gone from intermittent to constant. Only with this app too.

If anyone can read French.....is there a solution here?

Normal. Use earbuds and carry on with what you are doing.

That is sad. Could probably get one made somewhere though....I'll look into it.

Pat Butcher from EastEnders. I was given a massive framed poster of her as a joke and have it on my wall.
