anyone dealt with purple bricks etc and if so how did you find the experience compared with a high street estate agent
I sold two properties recently, one through purple bricks in Yorkshire and one through a regular estate agent in Glasgow. Purple Bricks were awful throughout the who process, trying to speak to them was a stressful event in itself, the agent completely over valued the property so we got few viewings, gave no advice about getting people in, we had to make all the suggestions, they gave no input at all.
Agent for the property in Glasgow was brilliant, handled everything, property went from going on the market on 6th October to sold, as in the money was in my bank, by 26th November. The agent was constantly in touch with the solicitors making sure everything was in progress.
Purple Bricks are dire and I would never recommend anyone use them. Don’t under estimate the difference having a good estate agent makes.
