Beth you will be fine and you will sell

It is the market, nothing is moving at all, just more coming onto the market, especially round here. Ours is also new at 2 years old, very big with 5 bedrooms, but we are at the top end price wise, we started off at £475,000, now down to £469,950, next door want in excess of £485,000 We know we have less of an audience, which does mean less viewers. The one viewer we have had who did say he was interested is ignoring the EA's calls, think he might not be interested any more

The hardest part is that Jason has a job and a start date, he has to go to Oz and I have to stay here and sell.

Do you know what, we need another chanting session to get the FTB's activated!! Send out vibes to get them all preggers, (even the guys) to make them want to nest build, give them pay rises, make their parents chuck them out. ANYTHING!

It will sell Beth!

I know you don't want to do this, but leave the bugger to sell. Come the spring, I'm sure things will have improved. Once you get off that plane in Oz, you will have a whole new take on life and it won't seem so important.

Sh*t I thought we were at the top end, that must be a beautiful house you have, we will get there in the end though and someone out there will fall in love with your house, realise they are getting it for a bargain and buy it, hopefully very soon

More interest rate cuts would be good, with the visa and the job we are going mental!

It isn't ideal, but we need the money from the house sale to get re-established in Oz, needs must I am afraid.

LOL, our next door neighbours' house is on the market for £1.6m!! It is an expensive area! Hopefully somebody will grab a bargain. If not, we have considered turning it into flats and letting them out.

That's the problem isn't it? We have a hell of a lot of equity in the house which we need out in case my OH can't get a job. That way we could buy a business in Oz to meet the work requirement of our visa.

I'm sick of thinking about it and trying to work out ways of doing things.:curse::curse:

Hi everyone,

Havent been on in a few days really just today here and there, just wondering how everyones house selling is going? Our viewer comes in the morning, Im going to lock her in and torture her into signing a promise to buy our house.

Do you think that is a punishable offence in current market conditions?xxxx

God damn bl**dy EAs :curse:

Had another one round this evening and he couldn't have been more different from the one this morning. What a complete w****er.

Valuation £80k under the one this morning.

Well, at least its another one off the list.

They are all w****ers petal. Some are just more clever at hiding it than others. That's why I said get rid of the one with the slip on shoes - they aren't even trying to hide their wankerdom.

mmm, I think you're right.

Anyway tomorrow's another day and I'm sure that I will be getting the fabulous EA tomorrow and they'll tell me exactly what I want to hear.
