well................we havent got a buyer yet either god this has been going on forever seriously. havent had a viewing for weeks and the ones we have had loved the house but lacking 4th bed!. so think we're now gonna start palnning permission for extension. we certainly dont make things easy on ourselves.
so the plan is to get permission, steve to build extension, sell for lots of dosh and be in aus by 16th dec cos this is when we have to validate by! think this whole process has scrambled my brain but i live in hope.
good luck to all those trying to sell

I have the same problem with the car boot sale/ rain thing... only I fly on Sunday so I pretty much fiigure that no matter how nice the weather I wont be carbooting then...

My house is now on the market! not the lowest % fee, but a bloke I think I can work with... I told him I'm hard work... don't suffer fools and can be a total bitch and he said he thought we would get along fine!

Carpet fitter came this morning, fitted carpet and left .... with a sodding great cut in the middle of it... phoned the shop, they are sending them back tomorrow to refit...

had run in with M&S over AUS$ (or lack of them... the Lush forum is down in spite of promises to be back and then Debenhams cocked up my fat pants order again...

but at least the house is on the market now...

had the ex EA phone this morning to re offer the offer I rejected yesterday...

I confirmed that I had rejected that offer... And now he has just phoned back to confirm he had NOT spoken to the chap who made the offer yesterday today but the offer still stands and I reconfirmed I will not be accepting that offer.

He then asked what offer I would accept to which I replied an offer of the full asking price thank you.

He said that he was getting the feeling that I didn't want to sell through them ... I said I would be happy to talk to him again if the offerer yesterday increases the offer to the full asking price.

He said the offer made yesterday and twice today whioch I have now rejected THREE times was an offer from a cash buyer... I said that was very nice for the buyer to have cash, but really it is of no concern to me how they arrange to fund the purchase of a house. If they want to buy the house..... they should they be putting in an offer which I accept.

Anyone follow that? Does it make sense?

AM I missing the point here? wasn't the estate agent meant to be working for me?


Why is MY (ex) EA phoning ME and trying to sell ME a below market value offer?
