When you go to bed you have to put yourself to sleep by counting the potential buyers trying a key in your door.

Me too

The sun is shining now but still no viewers. It's generally quiet during the summer holidays but I also think the market is slow anyway.

I know the feeling :curse::curse:

Waiting and waiting Grrr, we have 'buyers' and we have had viewers all wkend but nothing seems to be moving ( no pun intended ) I really wish with hindsight we had put the bloody thing on the market before we had the visas' Just didn't want to tempt fate

Lets hope our 'buyers' get back on track with their new buyer ( not getting hopes up yet )

Hope we all sell really quickly

Don't get down - there are a lot of us in the same boat, and nothing can be done about it.

Unless, unless we kidnap people off the street and the ransom is buying the house?

Of course, some people may have to die, but you can't make an omlette without killing innocents can you?

I'm glad you're all in with me, I'll make a start.....

Are you just with one agent then? Go multi agent-all agencies hate each other (been in the business!)-thus competing with the enemy stops complacency. There is no question that the interest rates are putting people off buying at the moment but it should still pick up in a few weeks when hols over.

Perhaps stop trying so hard as sometimes thats tempting fate. I was buying fresh flowers for each room every couple of days and washing floors daily and nothing-then I wasn't well for a few days-no flowers etc and in came an offer. It's a bit like the old adage of Mr Right coming along when you least expect..

Best of luck

I do all the house doctor stuff normally ( didn't have time this time , but its all neutral any way ) that really helps i find.
