Crikey Flyaway 8%, Not sure if were all making it worse panicking and dropping the price, but I suppose we have to do something.

I know what you mean, but there does only seem one way to compete. There are 6 houses for sale on our road. 1 sold and completed. Every other one has had a buyer who then pulled out. I guess it's cold feet due to the market - or their buyer pulling out.

Hopefully all the people who don't have to sell will take their houses off the market over Christmas and we will get genuine buyers doing viewings.

If the s*dding thing doesn't sell by the time we're ready to leave for Oz, we'll put it into auction.

Try and not work yourself up about it (easier said then done I know), if they love the house they're not gonna let something like the bin thing get in the way, they're probably using it as a way to knock you down a bit.

I bet your nails are in shreds! Hope you get an answer soon.

We had a viewer 10 days ago who stayed for an hour, said he loved the house, blah, blah and would ring when he had checked his financial situation out. So far nothing, nada, zilch. had a family 4 weeks ago said the same thing. Both times I was convinced they would put in an offer.

Thanks guys. We've had other viewers who've said it wasn't for them - that's fine. You know and move on. It's the so and sos who say they want it and then do nothing.

I try to give them the benefit of the doubt, because it keeps me sane! When we bought the house, we viewed in August, got a buyer and put in an offer in September, which was turned down. Went away, looked at other houses, got turned down on them too, came back to this one in November and offered a bit more - they accepted. So I am hoping our viewers are just looking at other houses for comparison.

One of the reasons for the drop in the price was an excuse to contact viewers who said they were interested to find out what had happened!

Think they may live to regret not taking that offer Driver, what's your story then, how comes your buying and not selling (if you don't mind me asking) are you off to OZ?
