Angry Dropped The Price

Hi All,

I know there is alot of us in the same boat regarding selling our houses and don't mean to whinge on about it but today we dropped our house price. Been on the market now for 7 weeks, no viewings and little interest :curse:

At what point do I have to think 'You Know What, We May Sell and Have NOTHING' !!

After 4 years of hard graft, £20k and alot of tears, there is NO WAY I will give this place up for nothing, we have done too much

Come on buyers, you know you need somewhere to live with your loved ones !!!!

Donna.

We're in same boat, fly out on Saturday, having to leave house here on the market, great fun trying to find money to run two houses! What can you do? Will leave it on the market till late summer and if no joy will have to pull it off and put some tenants in as it's gonna cost more in rental out there than what I can get for my stunning house here in the lake district - no justice!

Hi Donna
As you said, there are loads on us in this boat, (I am sure it is going to sink soon if they add any more lol).
It is so frustrating, we have been on the market for about 15 months now We have had two sales fall through and have just recently changed agents. We have also reduced our asking price, twice :curse: and after all our efforts over the last four or five years, (tears, tantrums, mess, dust arghhhh) I feel the same as you.
What I do know is that nothing will stop us from living our dream so we will just have to ride out the waves on the boat for now.
Stay positive hun, I am a great believer in that saying, Good things come to those who wait. Unfortunately, we might just have to wait that little bit longer.
Good luck.

Two sales !! Do you know why they fell through or just time wasters ?

Trying our hardest to stay positive, hope we get all the answers we want soon !!

Good luck hun

One buyer pulled out when they found out someone else was interested and the other wanted to rent with a view to buy. Sent you some house selling karma!

I'm feeling your pain Donna. We dropped our price a couple of times which was a bit gutting after all the work we put into the house.
Having said that - we have now accepted an offer and I feel very relieved (or at least I will do when we've signed on the dotted line )

Good luck

Dont give up. 7 weeks isnt that long really and now that spring/summer is on its way hopefully it will pick up. We are putting ours up for sale next week I dont think the scaremongering is helping either. We have spent a lot of time and money on ours so theres no way we are giving it away. Keep your chin up. sending karma
