Cheeky barstewards!:curse::curse: Hopefully this is their opening gambit. I bet they come back in a day or two with a higher offer. What did the EA say about it?

I'm hoping I've had my quota of bad luck now. Shouldn't say that should I? Really, sometimes I am very lucky, things just fall into place. I'm not usually a whinger, honest.

LOL. Is it one of those gardens on the side of a hill - which they do very well round here don't they? Ours is sideways on a hill, so the garden tilts to the left. I really think the Welsh should be born with one leg shorter than the other. I have someone come and do our garden because I hate gardening SO much. So I understand where you're coming from. OH and I don't lift a finger.

NO there isn't!!

EA seemed to think it was a cr*p offer too. This is our old EA who we had to give two weeks notice to, this runs out at the weekend so I think that they are desperately trying to sell it now to get some commission. Having said that, we were supposed to have a viewing on Monday but the EA was late and missed the viewers:curse::curse: Unbelievable, all that tidying for nothing:curse:Still, it confirms we have made the right decision in changing EA!

Scott

The EA was late ? i think i would be fumming too .. gimps ...

dinky2

I know! The air was blue:curse:Managed to calm myself with the fact that they have done 6 months of advertising and will be getting nothing. Hope the new lot are better!

Scott

you need karma , stand by

Fly Away

Definately the right decision to sack that agent. Hopefully, they will push the people to raise their offer if they are desperate to get the commission.

Fingers crossed that it works out.

dinky2

Thanks! Returned in sympathy for your cr*p viewing!

Hopefully, another day of waiting for the phone to ring tomorrow!

Fly Away

That's nasty isn't it. If it does ring it's always telesales and then just when you've given up, the EA will ring at some really inconvenient time like when you're in the bath.....:curse:

Wish my EA would ring whilst im in that bath....cutie that he is

Fly Away

I said ring, not call round! That's not what 'viewing' means!

OMG Dinky...wishing you better luck with the new EA. I know our first lot were rubbish, were determined not to give us a board, but now they have gone under (and I don't mean down under either) so it was nothing personal, even though it felt like it at the time.

For some reason, if I felt stressed, occasionally I would go out and mow...the mower was very old so you had to keep going over the same bit about ten times. I have an old photo somewhere in my thick work winter coat in November (it was a mild winter and the grass kept growing...landlady did random visits, so wanted to keep it tidy) with a smile beaming across my face. Aaaaaah, those were the days

Our place is just an enclosed space at the back. Very steep and until we cleared it (bad move, it looked better when it hid everything) totally covered with brambles, knotweed. It's the nature of the valleys I guess although it gets me mad when locals who know the area are asking for a garden.They know our side of the road and what the backs are like! :curse:

Oh god, really? - no wonder we managed to sell our house go on try it!!

dinky2

Wish I could de-stress by mowing!! I tend to drink wine instead which has caused me to put a stone on since our meds in June
OH and I are on the wagon now for a while, not exactly easy after a day like today!

Can sympathise with the garden, ours is half taken up with a hill, which without spending a fortune, is impossible to get looking nice. Last week, OH discovered a rat eating his bird food so now we have a rat bait station out there which has to be hidden every time we have a viewing
Oh the joys of house selling!!

Fly Away

I think I might send the viewers running for the hills....
