Most locals trust friends and family more than estate agents when it comes to buying a home.
That's according to a new report by the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission, which found just 22 percent of consumers trust estate agents, compared to 79 percent who rely on loved ones for help in the process.
The report says homebuyers often don’t know what to ask or where to find key information.
Speaking to Kfm, Simon Barry from the CCPC, said he wants buyers to have better access to answers earlier in the process.
