Included several large kitchen appliances in sale, even got to choose when we move out saving on renting (sorry all house sellers, I will just go and hide my happy little face away now!

Re: House Selling Brainstorm
Don't forget that a lot of the things you do to the house won't add any value, they just make it more attractive to the buyer, and more likely to get a sale than another house.
Stick with it and don't look desperate, otherwise guzzumping, etc., you have to look as if you have the best hand, and you are helping the buyer out!
Good luck
