Bloody estate agents
I bloody hate them (apart from you Rach)
Three of them valued our house.all 3 were the same.
we have been on the market about a month now, and not even a second viewing. After a bit of bantering, I have managed to get mutiple agency for a max charge of 1.50% to try and conjure up a buyer.
After further discussion, they now say, they might have over valued, and as the market is slowing down, we will have to reallly drop the price!!!!!!!
Useless bunch of BA**tards!!!!

Wait till the ba**rds start sending total arseholes round to view,
One viewer recently made us 3 offers, until eventually going over the asking price. No chain apparently, so we accepted her final offer, then the agents rang us up to apologies as the viewers house wasn't going up for sale for another week
I thought viewers were supposed to be checked out ?.
Luckily house Sale going through now, full asking price
Thank You Mr Mistry and your Tesco's carrier bags full 'o' cash.

Hiya Sandra
Went shopping in town, rang hubby for a lift at 6.00pm (the flippin bus company wouldn't let me on with my pushchair ) and he told me that the estate agent had booked a viewer for 7.oopm. I was not too happy as we're not suposed to be on the market until Monday. The house was a tip, I'd painted the loft ladders this morning... in the end we managed to cancel, but I was pretty cheesed off.
Sorry haven't checked out the Good Companion yet, been so busy. Got a wedding this weekend too.
Who are ya with Sandra?

PS The fee you mentioned for multi agency is good. We looked into doing this, but have just committed to sole agency for 6 weeks.

Put up for £145k and took 2 weeks for the first viewing. Had 5 or 6 in total and havning a 2nd viewing tomorrow - apparently the lady is very keen so we'll see..... If not, then we will drop the proce a bit. Ours has been up for about 6 weeks but I think our agent has been pretty fair and reasonable overall.

Hi
We are also languishing in estate agent hell. We've had eight viewings in five weeks with another viewing booked for tomorrow night. Promised lots of feedback by the estate agents and all they keep telling us is things we can't change, e.g. you don't have a drive to park your car on. Waste of time!!!!!!!!!!
Can't wait to be able to book the flights, shippers, etc
Good Luck to all of you who are selling.

Estate Agent Hell
Hi
Please cheer me up.
We are putting our house on the market at the end of June. We've had 3 agents round all giving us about the same valuation. I just hope everything goes smoothly!
Anybody had good experiences with selling houses prior to emigrating?
Good Luck to everyone in the process of selling
Regards
Please cheer me up.

Thanks for the advice. I suppose it's a matter of getting the timing right. Wouldn't want to have a good offer on the house and the visa being no where in sight.
But I think you're right, I'll put it on the market this week!
Thanks

We sold our after one week on the market, very civilised.
The Couple said We'll offer £X, we said we want £Y. After a bit of haggling we opened the bottle of Champagne we'd had in the fridge for ages. The four of sat and had a chat
Great, just know what you want for your house. Saves all the make us an offer through the estate agents nonsense.
Good luck to all this weekend, I remember living on burgers and sandwiches from M&S as I could mess up the kitchen!!!

Don't let the beggars get yer down
Look at it sensibly, price up according to what's out there in the market....and maybe knock price down a bit to attract lots of attention
Go...go..go.....cos I'm wafting me wand for yer
