Goodluck! They don't give you much notice do they??? Did the EA give you the viewing before or after you smacked them!

We asked our old EA to remove their sign about 3 weeks ago - last weekend graz got fed up and took it down - this week it is still lying down at the side of the house. Not sure how we get them to take it away



Afternoon all - i have just spent ALL day treking around the metro centre looking at luggage and cases

didnt know it would be so complicated

youngest has decided he wants a trucki (had to chase him around the shop to get him to put it back on the shelf!) so at least he is sorted

Yes they've been. I think it went well. They seemed to like everything.
I stayed out of the way first then casually struck up a chat with them and
plugged a few of the features.
Whats the protocol for viewings if the EA is there ? Should you keep out or
grab the viewers and shake them and say "Look I got 20 other people waiting so whats it gonna be ?"
No seriously what should you do ? I thought I did well just casually talking about the place.

Hi everyone,

I haven't posted for a while, trying to break the habit, but I have been avidly reading & catching up with everyone elses posts today I found reading all the doom & gloom depressed and panicked me a bit so took a break.

Congratulations to everyone who has sold (albeit subject to contract) fingers crossed that it all goes through smoothly.

Made the painful decision to reduce house by a further £20k today, already reduced it 10k, so not overpriced by any means as 6 mths ago we know we could of got original asking price :curse: Still, we weren't ready then so missed the boat. We've also given EA 2 wks notice and got another one coming next week to take pics etc. Need Karma please in the hope it will generate some fresh interest.

Good luck everyone, it's good to be back

Julie x

hi julie, totaly agree with being all doom and gloom,i think sometimes it can make you more paronoid about your own situation when you read about others, it is also helpful and has answered many questions,
so goodluck and hope it sells quickly for you !
sending some karma for luck !!!!!!!
