I agree. realtors are s**t, and are about as much good as a chocolate fire guard..local knowledge, code of ethics, what a load of old s**t

Turns out ******** is not allowed which is strange as it doesn't contravene any of the forum rules, looks like we have a puritanical Mod on the loose!

Funny that, when I was over on VI last month I told my realtor his picture looked totally insincere, he thought I was joking! I wasn't..

The property market is like waiting for a kettle to boil; analysis, watch and follow..nothing happens..go out of the room for a minute and the chuffer thing boils!!
