If you think estate agents do not benefit us all, then why do you think that so many of them are able to sustain businesses, given that nobody is obligated to use them?
OK. That's not exactly new information.Nobody is obligated to use them but they are the conventional method of selling a house.
Yes, like any agent, and like any shop. What exactly is your point?They are unregulated and on commission...
Jumping on a bandwagon? Is that what all this has been about? The subject of estate agents pops up, and you think it's an opportunity to have a pop at someone who has a brother who is one?...and working practices are often criticised.
Hmm. Have you ever sold a house? If so, did you sell it on eBay?Personally I'd rather sell my house on ebay.
