Please lets remember, the estate agents market it, the owners sell it. What else do you expect the estate agents to do, they will advise the seller as to market value, the seller doesnt have to listen to them and can advise them to sell it at that price.

That said, estate agents have been known to overinflate the price to get the property on and then reduce the price to a more realistic value.

I am not suggesting this agent has done that of course.
