HELD HOSTAGE I fully explained prior to signing my contract with Gasgcoine-Pees of Leatherhead that my property might have some issues attached to a potential sale. I was assured at the time that property can & will be marketed without delay however, a few days later they told me that due to a probate issue they can no longer market my property and will keep me locked into my 16 weeks contract with them. I have spoken and fully explained the situation to my solicitor and barrister along with two other estate agents and two other independent conveyancing solicitors of which they all say that the property can be marketed and sold without issues and the probate be set aside with the probate solicitors office to deal with. Gascoigne-Pees should be ashamed and put their hands up and release me from me contract due to them failing to fulfil their part of the contract to market my property. Gascoigne-Pee told me that if I sell my property in the meantime that would report me to HMRC and take any other estate agents to court. Lastly, they clearly don't want to lose a sale but clearly I can no longer trust them to sell my property after this treatment.
