Na, no news from me just looking forward to the new year and the hope that it will sell then.

I am hoping like everyone else, that they will reduce the interest rate and things will pick up. if that fails we'll drop the price again.

Trying to forget all about it at the moment.

Honestly, I did not want to join this thread but I think the time has come, actually it probably came 5 months ago but I wouldn't admit it. Long story short our house has been on the market since last Feb. We had several offers and bidding wars and have gone sale agreed once but with a dodgy estate agent it all turned sour. Our estate agent was showing our house and promising the sale to the viewers if he got their house to sell!!!! In the end he managed to secure 4 other houses out of our house!!! The people we ended up going sale agreed with after 3 months decided that it wasn't for them!!! 3 MONTHS !!!! We have dropped our price by 40k to 595k ( having gone sale agreed at 625€) and some cheeky **** came in last week and offered 100K under the asking price . In response my new agent told the viewer that he was obliged by law to inform me of the offer however he would do them a favour by not giving his client their names and addresses or I would come down and murder them!!!

So that leads me to why I am here. Sorry for the rant but it feels like we will never sell this house!!

Hi Mairead,

Welcome to the WPHS. We won't bite and in fact we have a great laugh on here!

Sorry to hear about the scheming EA who has mucked up your sale.:curse: The other thing we do on here is curse EAs.

We had an (unknown) EA put a note through the door, saying he had a buyer for £125K UNDER the asking price. Cheeky bar steward. I could get a buyer in a flash for that price as it's a bargain of a lifetime. :curse::curse: I bet it was the EA himself!

Hope you have some luck soon - we're all hoping for a rate decrease after Christmas to boost the market - will it affect you?? Does S Ire follow the UK interest rate in general? Sorry to be ignorant.

Thanks Lau!

Good luck with the survey. It's a new house isn't it? You shouldn't have any problems should you?

Reedy

4 year old - no we shouldn't have any issues.....
