Online agent not performing?

By HRadmin

We have been receiving quite a few enquiries from landlords recently who’s online agents are simply not performing.

We were recently contacted by the owner of an apartment on Kingsland Basin, E8. His property was on with an online agent for £375pw and had 1 viewing in 3 weeks. Thats 1 viewing after 360 working hours if you believe the hype on their website (apparently open 24 hours).

Harvey Residential was instructed and 2 days later the flat was rented at £420pw to a nice couple.

Other examples of this include a 2 bedroom flat in The City Mills, which was originally agreed at £530,00 via an online agent.

The sale fell through due to lack of diligence by the online agent and Harvey Residential was instructed. The sale completed at £590,000 5x weeks later.

To us, these examples clearly show there is nothing like a physical presence in the local area.

To instruct a proper agent with over 50 years combined experience to sell or rent your property in the best way possible, give us a call on 0207 249 1110 or CONTACT US.

What our clients say about us

Really impressive service - David, Warren and Laurie went above and beyond the call of duty while I was away overseas for six weeks during a particularly messy transaction. By far the most commitment and engagement I've experienced in a property transaction.
