An estate agent knocked on the door of the lady who was halfway through selling me her house, and told her her property had been undervalued, and to cancel her sale agreed with me, to drop her estate agent, and to go with them instead.
Has this happened to anyone else?
Does anyone have any articles or information about this that I can show her?
I really think she's being scammed and will lose out on a legitimate sale because she thinks she can get more.
I just can't quite explain this effectively to her without just sounding like I'm bitter.
Does it have a name even? Like gazumping?
