In this video, we look at how to gauge if an agent is giving an honest property valuation (61 secs.)

The first question a seller always asks an estate agent is: “How much can you sell my property for?”. The second is: “What is your fee?” This is why it pays to read the small print when selling your home.

This focus on price and fees makes perfect sense; understandably every seller wants to get the best possible property deal.
But before they jump in and choose an agent based solely on these two things, sellers should ask more questions to determine if an agent is telling them the truth or a load of porkies.
