Askthehomesearch, a new property portal, has dropped its deal with Sarah Beeny’s private sellers’ website, Tepilo, just days after announcing it.
The move comes after criticism on the EAT site.
Jonathan Davies, founder of the website, said he had also found listings by owners to be lacking in detail.
He will now concentrate his efforts on building up listings from sales and lettings agents who subscribe to the Property Ombudsman scheme.
He will be listing properties from Not Estate Agents, who claim not to be estate agents and charge private sellers a flat rate of £150. However, Not Estate Agents are members of the Ombudsman scheme.
