Overvaluing, Low Fees & Broken Trust: Why Consumers Lose Out

Description

In the very first episode of No More Waffle, Ben Madden sits down with industry veteran Dani Nash to ask the questions estate agency usually avoids.


They dive into the uncomfortable truth about why the public still doesn’t trust estate agents and how much of that reputation is deserved. From overvaluing to win instructions, to poor communication, to the 1% fee race-to-the-bottom, Dani shares both her insider perspective and her recent painful experience as a consumer selling her dad’s home.

 

This is a raw conversation about broken trust, missed expectations, and why consumers so often end up with the rough end of the stick. Ben and Dani also explore how training, culture, and the rise of the self-employed model could make or break the industry in the years ahead. It’s honest, challenging, and necessary listening for both property professionals and anyone buying, selling, or renting a home.
