    I think they all give valuations but some of em tell you your house is worth more than it is to get you to list with them, then after a month or two tell you to drop your price.

    We found Whitegates honest enough to give a true valuation and we got shut in weeks.

    When Simon Blyths visited I just laughed at him and told him it wasn't worth that much.

    One tried to scam me (allegedly)

    Tried to give me a very low valuation (allegedly). The scam works by the agent arranging for a mate to make a low offer (allegedly) which appears to confirm the low valuation. The mate then sells the house for its true value later (allegedly).

    Some tips here http://www.home-sellers-club.co.uk/sell_own_house_agents_tricks.html. The second one was the scam they (allegedly) tried on me.

    Get lots of valuations. Also, try this http://www.rightmove.co.uk/house-va...&radius=0.25&sellersPriceGuide=Update+Results

    The Rightmove site will tell you (allegedly) the prices of properties in your area that have recently been sold. Just put your post code in.

    Good luck (allegedly).
