Real estate agencies
These are one of the few groups of people in the world where no-one is happy with what they do. If you’re a home owner in a “copropriété” (residence), anapartment owner letting through an agency, or a tenant of one of those apartments, no-one seems to be able to get satisfactory service from these guys.
It’s one of those domains where everyone knows that when you ask for something, it’ll take twice as long as it should, when they ask for something, they charge you for every letter they send you. When you change company, the new one is just as bad as the old one.
These are people who play both ends against the middle, who get rents from tenants and then tell landlords that the tenants haven’t paid yet so that they get use of the money for an extra couple of months. And they take pleasure in sending you bills in the most confusing way possible, so that you couldn’t possibly understand, and you don’t notice when they are overcharging you.
Why the hell does “Creation of dossier” cost €108? And since when does the sending of a reminder letter cost €18? And even more relevant, why can’t I get anyone on the phoen to explain it to me?
These guys are vultures, except without the wingspan and plumage.
