Basically can't accept any offers below this price as it's the very lowest we can go without going into negative equity.......so wish me luck girls........think I'm going to need it!!!!

Good luck Beth, hopefully it will stir up more interest for you.

Its the same house except hers has a conservatory and ours has a big drive and garage.
I feel in competition with her and I know I shouldnt.
It must be cos of the emotions with visa and everything. I will try to calm down.
Good luck being sent your way for some viewers. Where are all the buyers?

Hey FA - first time for multi-quote!!

Well done on the multquote Nicky!

Just wanted to warn you guys not to go into the Feb applicants thread. Someone in there sold his house in 2 days.

Absolutely right....now come & relax on the leather sofa, close your eyes & imagine clear, blue, water.....

Welcome to the thread - you'll find plenty of support here (sssh they're all a bunch of nutters really, but we'll just humour them )

Keeping my fingers crossed that you bring some good luck to the thread

That's the same as us Hayles, it's all very uncertain isn't it?


Well, blow me down with a feather... Just had feedback. The viewer was actually viewing for his son as he is looking to buy him a house. FOR CASH! Wants a quick sale - which we can do as we can move into our rental flat. He said he would put in an offer - but is still thinking about another house... worried about a window overlooking the house from next door - about 200 yards away. I think this is a red herring. I will try not to think about it, cash buyers are a loose cannon. EEEKKK
Am keeping everything crossed for you. Know what you mean about loose cannons and cash buyers. How are you doing?

Turns out she has bought the house next door & just wanted a nose

Hi and welcome!!!! We're all totally wired here so no chance of keeping calm.

Hi Beth.
Hubby is a Mechanical Engineer, I am a hairdresser. I didn't get my skills assessed cos it was too complicated! Good job we didn't need the points
