We've had six viewings in the past 14 days and one offer which was 15K below the asking. I said no...NOT THAT DESPERATE!

Arrrrrrrr

I may be having second thoughts in a month or two!! Grrrrrrr

We had to drop 11.5k to secure the deal but to be honest I think it was a bit overpriced to start with. It would have been nice to get a bit more but the offers weren't exactly flooding in

Just got the business to sell now as our buyer for that pulled out on Monday after 10 months of stringing us along

At least the house is sold now so that's one thing less to worry about!

Will be having a couple of tonight!
Congrats thats brilliant news

Thank you

Not that we can go anywhere as we still have to sell the business and we haven't been granted our visa yet but it's a step closer.

Good luck with your house sale and I'll keep my fingers crossed for everyone else who's going through this horrible house selling lark.

Mmm yeh i know what ya mean. Ours was advertised 10K under valuation. I know valuations aren't exactly solid but there are two others in the same road up for 10K more than mine and I think mine is better! I would say that though!! If she offered a few more thousand I'd most probably say yes!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr dilemmas!!!

I think it depends on how much its on the market for, ie if under 100k then 10k drop is big but if house into 100's of K's then 10k not too big.

Hope yours is the later good luck
