The Truth About Estate Agent Fees: Are You Paying Too Much?

Looking to Sell or Let?

Begin your journey with a free property valuation. Get the facts and figures to make informed decisions.

Selling a property shouldn’t mean handing over £6,000–£10,000 in commission fees to your estate agent. Yet that’s exactly what many landlords across London and Essex are doing every time they sell.

Here’s the truth: you don’t need to overpay. And right now, you don’t have to, because at ABC Gone Ltd, we’re celebrating 15 years in business with a limited-time fixed-fee sales offer.


Why Percentage Fees Don’t Make Sense

Traditional estate agents usually charge 1.5–2% of the sale price. That sounds small until you do the maths:

  • Sell at £250,000 → 1.75% = £4,375
  • Sell at £400,000 → 1.75% = £7,000
  • Sell at £600,000 → 1.75% = £10,500

The hidden problems with percentage fees:

  • The more your property is worth, the more you lose.
  • The workload doesn’t really change.
  • You pay more, but rarely get more service.

👉 So why should your estate agent’s earnings rise just because your property is more valuable?


🎉 Our 15-Year Celebration: £1,500 Fixed Fee

For 15 years, landlords have trusted us to manage, protect, and grow their portfolios. To celebrate this milestone, we’re giving something back:

Sell your property for just £1,500.

What’s included?
✔️ Professional marketing on all major property portals
✔️ Viewings and negotiations handled start to finish
✔️ Complete support until the keys are handed over

No percentages. No hidden costs. Just one clear price.


Real Example

A landlord in Romford recently sold a property worth £320,000.

  • Traditional 1.75% fee = £5,600
  • Our 15-year promo fixed fee = £1,500

👉 That’s a saving of £4,100, enough to fund their next renovation project or reinvest into their portfolio.


Act Now — Before Regular Pricing Returns

This isn’t forever. Once our 15-year celebration ends, we’ll return to regular pricing, and percentage-based agents will still be charging thousands.

If you’ve been considering selling, now is the perfect time. Lock in your £1,500 fixed fee today and avoid paying more than you need to.


Final Word

The truth about estate agent fees is simple: many landlords are paying far too much for a service that doesn’t need to cost thousands.

At ABC Gone, our anniversary offer proves it: a full sales service, trusted by landlords for 15 years, for just £1,500.

👉 Don’t wait until it’s gone. Book your free valuation today and claim your £1,500 fixed-fee sales offer before we return to regular pricing.
