well as of this afternoon i now have TWO estate agents to contend with.

I am hoping that as only one will get paid this will focus both of their minds and make them put some effort into marketing my house ... of course this could just be wishful thinking on my part

i just cant quite figure out how we got into this mess in the first place - two years ago when we started this daft idea of migrating i specifically said i did NOT want to be sitting with a visa and trying to sell the house - so how come i am sitting here with a visa and still have a house

ok need to concentrate on those positive vibes (((((((( ))))))))

We said we wouldn't sell for the first six months then changed our minds to make us more determined to make a go of it

Well I hope we are all gearing up for this new lot of people coming in the second week of September, seeing is believing

Did you have to agree to a much bigger percentage to sell with two agents?

Good luck anyway

Do a feng shui on your house, get book on it from the library, change a few of your furniture around, put your clutter in the garage, make your house looks like show room & spacious, basically fool your buyer.
Hey it worked for us, we also went multi agent we had 4 offers with in 2 weeks of going multi agent.

Think it is time we joined in the whingeing! Firstly, I would just like to thank the nice bloke who let me tidy up and wait in for him this afternoon, only to not show up:curse:
Then I would like to thank the lovely couple who came round the other night, opened every cupboard, banged on every wall, then told the EA that our house is "a two bed with a walk in wardrobe, not a three bed and is overpriced by 10K" Grrrrrrr:curse:
