Professional service but fees are always expensive

We've rented properties (as tenants) through several different agents and Andrew Grant were definitely the best. Through the application process, moving in, living at the property and moving out, they - Chloe (from Worcester) and Ellie (from Solihull) - were professional, helpful and honest. We always leave houses in perfect condition and this was the first time we haven't had any frustrating squabbles about dirt/damage that was there before we moved in. I strongly believe that letting agents fees are far, far too high - it's outrageous that tenants should have to pay several hundred pounds to secure a property. Andrew Grant are unfortunately no exception to this. So I suppose we had paid a high price for the good service that we received!
