Thanks for the replies. I had a local estate agent round yesterday, who agreed with me that the property was slightly overpriced, and I've instructed him to put us on the market at £135k with a hope of encouraging offers around the £130k mark. I enquired with my current EA (the one out of town) about fees etc now that I have 2 agents, and they informed me that if I stick with 2 agents, they are putting their fees up from 1.2% to 2%+vat!!!! Wow, what a hike! After sitting with my calculator I'd be better off dropping them altogether even though I'll incurr a withdrawl fee of £250, I dont understand why they've upped their percentage? That was a costly mistake I made before I even start....not enjoying this much at all and I was so excited when I first decided to start the ball rolling.
