you should always allow at least 5% for negotiation.

if you wanted to actually get £162.5K i would of asked £170K +

but don't worry, you will get there in the end.

good luck.

Yeah they really take the piss.
One woman supposedly with no chain, put in 3 offers eventually going a grand over what we were asking.
Well we snapped her hand off, only to be told that HER HOUSE wasn't on the market till the following week.
What a cow !
That REALLY makes my blood boil :scared:

we think our "buyers" take the biscuit, or the p**s, whichever.

We agreed in February, and took the house of the market as requested to show good faith.


Turns out our "buyers" didnt have any money whatever without remortgaging thier current place. They want ours as a rental property. They are not willing to remortgage theirs untill the end of june, otherwise they incur a massive penalty from their building society.

Needless to say, they are desperate for us to keep our house off the market.. we put it back on two weeks ago.

I HOPE someone makes us an offer.. I do not want these "people of good faith" to get our home.

I know the feeling Scott.....

Of the 2 viewings I've had.....one bloke stood in my house and told me he was looking to spend a max of 20k below my asking price!!!!! ........needless to say I was very polite and I resisted the urge to stick my big toe up his ar*e.

Good luck Scott.....hope you get a buyer soon!

After many ups and downs over the last couple of weeks with the famous esate agent, they didnt turn up for my friday viewing.

Super saleswoman Sandra to the rescue... I take the viewer round telling her how wonderful my house is and why she should put in an offer.
We get to the loft room, when the estate agent finally turns up, (caught in traffic) and takes over.
ten minutes later down they come..Mrs Bloggs really wants to come back for another viewing tommorrow. is that okay.
Fine said me. Okay we will ring you in the morning......and.....guess what..........I am still sitting by the phone!!!!!
