Re: My work here is done....
Your house is lovely and seems very reasonably priced. We dropped our price by £10k though and got an offer within a week. We'd had about 30 viewings altogether. As you've got some time on your hands why don't you make appointments to view lots of similar properties in your area and see how your price compares with the opposition?

To be honest I'm surprised your house hasn't been snapped up!!
Do they not know a bargain when they see one???

but even so, i would never dream of looking at other properties and wasting somebodys time, thinking i might be a buyer.

I much prefer the open house system then you can have a good old nosey without inconveniencing anyone as they've tidied up anyway.
