Daunted, as a male i have never been able to understand the male of the species. OH says i'm not a real man (whatever than means!!! ) but i am constantly flabbergasted!

Just keep in mind during the long wait (soz, it will be long!) that there is a barbie steak with your name on it somewhere! lol.

Things in general look like they are looking up on this thread. Keeping fingers solidly crossed for all. s**ting myself about friday, hoping like mad it happens!

Ok, off for a hotel breakfast (head hurty..)..

Celebrating too much last night causing the head or sheer fright.

Hope it goes well on Friday when are you off to Oz?

Promised my self i'd never ever sell a house in the uk ever again .....the system is w**k.....!

If you make an offer for a property it should be binding....!

One thing i can't believe people are still stupid enough to do and that is take the house off the market when an offer is made........!

Very true!! Our EA did and i wish he hadn't (or that we said not to!). It would have kept the pressure on the buyer to make things happen. Still, looks like the thumbscrew worked

Until completion, do not change your sign from For Sale to Sold (stc)!

Don't forget two things sell houses......apart from realistic pricing......and thats kichens and bathrooms......don't waste money on extensions , double glazing , etc.

Remember it's you ladies that decide to buy or not.....

Well he has been and gone said the house is lovely, he has 2 more to view today and will make his decision tomorrow.

Everyone please send Karma for this bloke to buy so we can move on (do I sound desperate enough)

the buyer who we had on monday has found another property, apparently cheaper and getting more for their money location location loaction! they have obviously brought in a not so nice area to live, if thats what they want, fine but would have prefered not to be kept hanging on for 3 days though
back to trying to get more viewings i suppose.

Oh b~m!

That's bad news! You have the option to go back to them quickly and offer a deal. Reduce the price in return for a quick exchange. Throw in some extras like white goods for the price you want - all the furniture - anything you can think of!

Obviously if what they are offering is just too low then force yourself to smile and clean the house yet again.

Fingers crossed for you
