Last article we looked at the role of the Spanish agent for both the buyer and seller, what they should do and what they don’t do. This article we look at the highly charged issue of estate agents commissions and the effect it has on the selling price of your property. Oh mother there could be fireworks tonight.
Estate Agent commissions push up the price of our property

According to USFDA, a combination product is one composed of any combination of a drug and device; biological product and device; drug and biological product

Agents could of course help themselves here by giving valuations – but they generally don’t. Most prefer to fill their windows with properties that they have no chance of selling to make it look like they have a lot of properties for you to view.

But what would you prefer – an agent who brings one buyer round who buys, or an agent that brings 50 people round who have no intention of buying.
