i have to apologise because i've just skipped 4 pages of this thread to tell you WE GOT AN OFFER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:ohmy:
actually we got 2 offers
no 1 offer. the couple who came on sunday from london have offered £5k under asking price, i'm happy with that but hubby has asked for £2k more as we were asking for offers in access of price. but they've got to get a £50k mortgage to finance move and going to bank tomorrow. they've sold to FTB in rented so really small chain

no 2: lady who viewed ages ago and offered really low, and we rejected it she went of and found somewhere else, buts thats all gone wrong so she come back to us and offered £20k under. EA told her we've had better offers so she needs to sort out her finances.

i cant sit still

so you have return flights?
can you change them to open returns to use in the future and tryt to get tied up before that date?
it would be a shame to spend all that money on flights in such a short time scale!!

if you do tie the house up by your validation trip you could, just, not use the return flight. It might work out to be less expensive than returning and booking again as the flights are sooo expensive in Dec arn't they?
