Hi there,
We've paid a house deposit recently and realised afterwards that the estate agent lied about a few things in their online ad and in an e-mail to us. A house survey we have paid for has brought concrete evidence about that.
We haven't signed a contract yet, but I was wondering if it is common for estate agents to lie about the windows being double glazed when they are actually single glazed for instance.
I know estate agents try to use any means to sell but is there a body here in Ireland that regulates their dealings with their clients and what do they stipulate?
We don't want to create any problems to the estate agent so we kindly brought that to their attention, but the estate agent only asked us to let them know what we decide about the sale. No apologies for the errors or any other explanations.
I find it really difficult to trust this estate agent now.
Are we being too fussy or do you think we have very high expectations?
Thanks a mil.
