I think you should complain, loudly, to the Estate Agent who should have accompanied the buyers anyway if you were out. At least it won't happen again, but not nice.

No of course not.
We havent moved house in over 20years now. But we had a similar experience back then.
Lesson learned.
Good luck with the move

We have gone sale agreed on our house. The estate agent asked if the buyers could have access for an hour this morning to measure up. We had things on but agreed they could get the key from the estate agent and let themselves in for an hour from 10 o clock.

We returned at 11.45. They were still there with about six family members, one of whom was upstairs using the loo and another was sitting in the garden smoking.
It is still our home and we only agreed that the couple could have access. I feel really annoyed that they have obviously been showing family members around our house, going in and out of the bedrooms etc with us not there.

My sister said we should have insisted someone from the estate agent accompany them.

AIBU to do this next time?
