state agent trick: ‘Game of poker’ style strategy agents use buyers must beware of

Jamie Salisbury, property expert at digital estate agency, Nested, explained.

He told Express.co.uk: “Be careful of choosing the estate agent who gave you the highest valuation.

“This is often a tactic used to win your business, and is not necessarily based on the true market value.”

Instead of accepting a high valuation, homeowners can do their own research to see how much they could actually get.
