Robert's Recent Activity

Robert Carroll
Thank you for your article Graham. I follow your articles via Twitter and always find them interesting and informative. There are a couple of things that require clarification here though. First, MOV8 isn't actually an 'online agent' (as the company's MD, I hopefully speak from a position of authority on this)! It's of course flattering to be put in the same category as a high-growth, listed company like PurpleBricks. However, although we have been offering an innovative Fixed Estate Agency Fee fee structure since 2009, are heavily focused on technology and have been growing at about 40% per annum for several years, we do actually have a Head Office and three, local branches throughout Edinburgh and the Lothians, so anyone is welcome to pop in and see us any time! Second, the ASA's comments as reported here may be prone to misleading as to the true position. We absolutely did not 'provide assurance that our future adverts will make it clear that additional costs may be applicable to our estate agency fee'. Our Estate Agency Fee (aka 'Commission' for many estate agents), is fixed and does not increase depending on circumstances. What we did say is that there may of course be other costs of selling a home (e.g. Home Report, glossy brochures etc) and we proactively offered to clarify this on the webpage in question (though we did strongly feel that we were comparing apples with apples here and didn't believe that this clarification was necessary). Thank you for keeping us all informed about what is happening in our industry and keep up the great work.
