Re: Whinging Pom House seller
At least they didn't string you along for months. Not much of a consolation, I know, but at least you know and can move on quickly. Fingers crossed you find another buyer soon.

Re: Whinging Pom House seller
Oh no Kapri - that sucks.
as for my sale - I have officially lost the will to live....the buyers have been in touch with our solicitor about the kerb, basically they want it done.....I have the paperwork here from the highway agency - it will be 8 weeks before they can give the go ahead and give us a quote so realistically about 3 months before the work can be done....I have emailed our buyer and said it will be £1200-£1500 we will offer £1500 as cashback on completion and submit the paperwoek but not waiting all that time.
If they refuse this offer we will withdraw and put our house back on market without driveway:curse: I am not waiting another 3 months for this buyer!
Im so cross.

LOL - we don't have street lights or a pavement and yet we still live in a city.
Oh Hayles, no. This is getting silly now. Fingers crossed they accept the offer. It would be silly of them not to. Hope you don't have to put it back on the market, but if you do, it does seem to be moving a bit now.

We have got a viewer tomorrow at 6pm! Yippee, first one since November. Lets hope they put in an offer as we reduced the house yesterday. We have had our visa 11 months and validated last September.

PMSL so do I Fly - I cant wait to meet you in real life - I have a feeling you are just like you come across online, I on the other hand am actually quite different, not quite so gobby and confident....that all changes after a glass or two of vino though

Re: Whinging Pom House seller
Can't wait to meet you either. I think you sound like I was when I was young, (theatrical sob). I used to be shy, but I gave that up as pointless when I started bossying builders about for a living. God help Adelaide when we find the wine supply....

On our last house that we sold the buyers kept asking for unrealistic things to be done. One was to build a fish pond in the back garden and another was to knock a hole in the back house wall to take a cat flap. Hubby did the cat flap but said no way to the fish pond, bloody cheek!!!

OMG they wanted you to dig their fish pond?? I think you were above and beyond the call of duty to fit a cat flap!! Hope the cat ate all the fish.

Re: Whinging Pom House seller
That was just two of the things she wanted, she also wanted the whole of the front of the house re-pointed and a brick wall built between the two houses made about two foot taller. Hubby is a builder and I think she was just trying it on. He just said p**s off in the end, would rather not sell it to them.
Going to be cleaning again all morning!

The only thing I could understand is the pointing if it came up on the survey as a problem. Everything else is personal taste / choice.
I hate the cleaning. I resent the time I spend on it when I have much better things to be doing. Tomorrow I am cleaning too - we have another property we are getting ready to sell and I'm cleaning it ready for the agent's photos. I know, I am a nutter selling more than one property....
Good luck tomorrow.
