Re: Whinging Pom House seller
Our buyer is have a full survey tomorrow, she's been trying to get me to knock money off the house for ages then spends £1000 on a full survey (mad woman).
can't believe your buyer has asked for a new carpet cheeky whats name. does she want you to wipe her backside next time she poo's too?

Been on the phone to Singapore Airlines and have confirmed we are entitled to 40kgs per person checked luggage and 7kgs per person hand luggage (have to have a perm visa which is unused to qualify for double baggage allowance)
Laptop and handbag are free........and my daughter's violin will go in the fragile cargo
Flying 10 weeks today by the looks of things, whether house has sold or not.......

Hi Beth
make sure you have that written on an email they can sometimes get a little funny at check in.
Also how are you getting to Cairns with singapore someone who recently moved to Cairns said because of the domestic flight you may not get the 40kg because of the domestic flight.
We had looked at going Cathay Pacific straight from Hong Kong not sure if you still get allowance though.
Would be interseted to know how you get on, you lucky thing 10 weeks
Sorry for gatecrashing thread have been reading with interest just a few things to tidy up and hopefully house goes on the market this week.
I am expecting a very quick sale, with a bidding war and 30k been offerd over the asking price. ....well i can dream

Re: Whinging Pom House seller
I have joined the legions that have gone before having a whinge about house selling...
House almost on market, no formal instruction to any agent yet...... estate agent begs a one off, single viewer contract as they believe they can sell it to couple who are desparate to buy in our street... 1.25% and only tied into this particualar couple... free to instruct a n other agent immediately only pay this agent if we sell to THIS couple...
sends them round to view, they spend 3/4 hour of my precious packing time telling me what they would do my MY house if they were to buy it
Then tell me they would like to see it when it is finished!
Everything is done apart from some packing and a hallway/stairs carpet.... what the Heck is that about?
And why tell me what their plans are?
Grrrrrrrrrr:curse:
They knew it wasn't finished, which is why it is not officially on the market yet... what kind of muppets are they? or the agent for wasting my time?

chill out! Be glad youre not selling here in oz! They charge at least 2.2% and take mostly 90 days to sell! Were not all bad!
Hope it all goes well for you. And remember, you need an agent to sell it, unless you have time in between your packing to do that too!!

PMSL.
Fantastic news Beth!! I would do the same in your shoes. 10 weeks, oh my lord. Get packing girl!
LOL. Buyers, they want your house for free and then moan about having to move in. Do you think we should shift their furniture for them too?
Good on you!! they obviously want to knock the price down.:curse:
Eddie's post was a long time ago. She is living in Oz now....
Do they work?? We won't get double baggage either... thinking of airfreighting some stuff.
