Thank you for posting that. The case involves a sale rather than a rented property, but it is good to see that companies are being prosecuted for witholding relevant information from purchasers.

I note that the spokesperson for the Council said that they do not like taking business to court and would rather avoid it. This is not a particuarly helpful attitude from the consumers point of view.

An interesting case was not well covered in the press involving Foxtons. You may want to blog on it. It has wide reaching implications. See http://www.24dash.com/news/Local_Government/2009-12-04-Estate-agent-ordered-to-pay-4-000-bill-after-breaking-law

I watched the BBC documentary about the shoddy practices at Foxtons. So I expect this big name to go bust!

But nope, they have gone from strength to strength. They have opened more branches and I see their signs everywhere!
