(92 per cent) are convinced that estate agents 'do not justify their high fees'
Guardian: Want to sell your house? Try setting up a home page
"we've seen a 94 per cent spike in the number of direct listings of homes for sale,' reports Gumtree's spokeswoman Sophy Silver. 'It reflects a money-saving mood among sellers, especially as house prices now show signs of dipping.'"
Everyone - can I suggest that if/when prices are reasonable, and we are all able to buy a place to live, we make an extra special effort to look for houses online rather than through an estate agent. There is even one in the channel islands now - www.guernseypropertyhub.com, which is amazing because we've only just got electricity here ;-)

I will definitely check online in the way described when looking to buy. I hate dealing with Estate Agents. They are scum. There is no way to put it politely.

Try setting up a home page?
Try asking for less money first!
