Where has time gone? I have been selling and letting properties for 40 years. Estate agency is certainly in my blood; my late father David Marshall was a founding partner of Marshall Shepherd and Redman a very successful firm of estate agents in Ware and Hertford. Dad gave me my introduction to the business, you could say a baptism of fire!
We decided that once I had learnt the basics I would head off to the world of corporate estate agency. Having worked for 2 years with Connells, Bairstow Eves and 5 years with John H James and Company prior to them being bought out by GA Property Services. Corporate estate agency is not as flexible or enjoyable as independent firms.

This is possibly because the agent is trying to ''buy your business. This is something we will not do. If the valuation is too unrealistically high the property will not sell and you will waste your time and potential money if you have to dramatically cut the price.
