"Absolute shambles of an Agent."

Absolute shambles of an Agent.

We have been left waiting for 4 Months to get a simple lease completed on a small commercial office. We chased them all the time for progress and reiterated over and over that come May, we would need to be in or we would have to terminate our interest. We then were forced to extend that to June and now that is still open ended!!

At the last minute (ON THE DAY OF POSSIBLE COMPLETION), I attended my Lawers office to sign the lease and it was then announced that they had revoked a paragraph which outlined their agreed and legal obligation to make some minor repairs within 60 days of completion. They would not re-enter this clause even though these small works had been agreed at the point of issuing HOT's back in February which made us feel like there was something sinister going on.

We have now pulled out of the deal, paid their termination fee and although we are over £2600 out of pocket in costs, we are extremely relieved that we do not have to have Holroyd Miller in our lives for the next number of years. We have also contacted the owners to express our anger that they have wasted 4 months of both ours and their time.

These are absolutely shocking to deal with and I would urge any reader to look at other agents if looking to advertise a property OR if someone wants to pursue a commercial property, I would URGE you to include a deadline in any HOTs as they are simply useless!
