Leggett Immobilier France Rochebeaucourt-et-Argentine

I have bought and sold several homes in France and this agent was recommended by someone. The house was already on the market through a couple of agents and the price was suggested by them. Your agent didn't have a good thing to say about our house. She asked my how much I paid a year and a half ago.. I said it was non of her business.. I can find out you know she said! and she did. She then emailed me saying how much id paid and that I should get advice from a notaire about capital gains despite it being my only home and my not having lived in the UK for years...She told me it was too expensive as well.. which I knew already but it was never going to be cheap as chips! After receiving yet another horrible message from her and seeing the advert which had not good word to say about the house I asked to remove the advert. I filled in the form and sent it to head office. I called head office and they persuaded me to drop her as an agent, and they would find someone else. They havent!.. This is a couple of weeks later and the house still sits there with the most awful description... I really can't be bothered now... I thought you were a good agency but am really upset. The house is lovely, just a walk from the town and suitable for two ponies or a small holding. its a few hundred meters from a river with fresh watercress, open country walks all around and very little traffic... completely renovated but a home not a chocolate holiday home.

nous avons était trompé sur le bien que nous avons acheter et l'agent a ca part de responsabilité car elle était tenu de nous conseiller son but était de vendre a tout prit pour aider le vendeur. nous n'avons pas sus que la maison ne comporté pas de dalle de béton on ce retrouve avec un plancher pourri et les pied dans le sable avec des frais et du gros œuvre imprévue. et la réponse de l'agent a nos question c'est vous l'avais visité la maison ...

very bad experience. My sister lived in France and after she died I inherited the house and we chose to sell the house. Prior to her death I had not visited the house or had any experienec of French propert trans actions. We chose Legatt as the agents spoke good english. They undervalued the property compared to other agents and pushed me into signing a mandat. At the last moment we increased the Mandat from 125,000 to 145,000 and still found a buyer within a week. At this point we were advised that we could not ask for more as the mandat did not permit it. Why with my lack of experience of french property transactions was I not told of this vital piece of information? The naivity of the agent in not understanding the value of the site and its potential was very testing.

The service we received was so bad that, at times, it felt like our agent was playing a joke on us. We had to send the same documents numerous times, we never got an update without having to ask for one, and it took 3 weeks and many emails after the sale completed for us to get the money.

While the estate agent is knowledgeable the lack of communication from her was ridiculous especially as everything was by email, we would only be given updates after we sent numerous emails chasing updates. Questions we asked about safer end dates etc where totally ignored by both the agent and Notaire, enquires about French tax ignored that we asked. We was asked by the agent to get the boiler serviced just a few weeks prior to completion only to find out this was not required! We was advised to clear rubbish from the house 5 days prior to completion only to find out this was again not in the contract! We are still awaiting the Diagnostics refund when advised it should be refunded on completion day. The agent made the selling process a lot more stressful than it needed to be simply because she did not communicate and keep us inform or if she did it was last minute. Even the day before completion we emailed asking what happens on completion day and got a very vague answer and it took several emails and phones calls on the day to find out if completion had taken place. I would never use or recommend Leggett’s again

Honoraires exorbitants pour un service inexistant. Je ne recommande pas, qui plus est si vous n'êtes pas bilingue. Nous n'avons pas réussi à avoir toutes les informations sur le bien, avons eu de mauvais conseils pour la rédaction du compromis, n'avons bénéficier d'aucun suivi efficace des différents agents qui se sont succédés tout au long de notre transaction. Tout cela couvert par une direction qui approuve cette médiocrité et vous renvoie une image de mauvais client. A éviter. Vraiment.
