Heres a wee tip for u then. When u get a viewer try asking them questions. like, how long have u been looking, have they made offers on other houses,what do they think of your house,are their funds in place,and if they have kids...what school would they be going to. the last one is the best cos, if they are not too sure it means theyve not really done their homework. this usually means they are timewasters!!!!
dont be afraid to ask, remember its your house they are tramping through. and if u scare them off....well ....Timewasters!!!!!!

i might have an idea on huw to spot the time wasters.
3 out of the 5 viewers we had mentioned our sons phone they spotted in his room. oh and one of the valuers too.
turns out, after chattin to the estate agents they all had been looking at houses for ages.
try leaving something out that would catch their eye.
remember its the house they are buying not its contents lol

must admit , when we were selling......tyre kickers really pissed me off !
make sure you get it straight with estate agent's ,in the end told agents .....only send us peoplle who have either sold their house or who have funds in place.

it did the trick....wish i'd done it at the start !

18 mth's of hell.......bastards !!!!!!!!

We have had our house in the paper for a week and no viewing!?! Starting to get worried, maybe we priced it too high, maybe the pictures are crap. All sorts start running through your mind.

And, I hate staying in when the viewer turn up, I feel so uncomfortable so I intend to go out, is this a good move though?

Oh got, I hate this bit. Try keeping the house tidey 24/7 with kids and dogs.
