Just try & stay calm now, everything will seem like it's going at snail's pace at first, but then before you know it you'll be off

Very well done - you so deserve this break

Update on us - so far 12 viewings price down £10k another three viewings last saturday. Last week had a second viewing - not even bothered to return EA phonecalls -so frustrating. Still waitng for feedback for one of saturdays - not replying to answerphone messages from EA. Other two 1. bedrooms too small - can't they read details as room sizes there! 2. Loved kitchen, loved west facing garden - funny feeling about road to the side of the house. (can't see it from our house, have no bother from it)
Excuse me - aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh. Sorry needed that.
On a lighter note the lady who made a private offer has her house on market now and wants to bring her Mother around tomorrow.

Hi Maisey

That sound promising for tomorrow I have everything crossed for you.

I have had 7 vviewingsno one made a offer . 2 of mine haven't even bothered to return EA call. I was going to cancel my EA but found i have to pay £585 plus vat. So hang on a bit longer now the market is now starting to pick up. We live on a main road but it has never bothered us. We just fell in love with the house. But I know it will happen for us all soon.
All the best for tomorrow Maisey.

Our survey was done within 10 days and they are getting it back today so fingers crossed everything will be hunkydory I'm still scared to book the flights but probably will as soon as we hear survey is ok.OOOOOO I'm so excited for you.
Wishing you all the luck in the world Annexxx
Good luck Anne. Fingers crossed for you.

I totally agree with you Maisey. It seems that people can't read specs properly and have no idea about measurements anyway

good news about your private offer. As someone else said, bringing the mother around is very positive.

Oh Spaceys, what a bummer try and keep your chin up, I know its hard.

Hi Spaceys have you thought they may just be saying that hoping you lower the price ? Then again they may be sat waiting to see if you get any other offers first. They knew you lived on a main road before they even came to look . You did say they liked the house apart from that. Plus if no on has offered then they may be sat waiting people do this .

I am in the same position as i live on a main road too. but to be honest it never bothered me when i bought the house.

Keep you chin up sweet the market is slowly picking up.

When I sold my last house (in 5 weeks GGGRRRRRRRRRRRR) they were FTB's......and young.....so they viewed the house with both sets of their parents
Put an offer in an hour later.......for £5k under asking price.......we said £2.5k higher and we'd accept. They agreed.
One week later they asked if they could come around again to measure up for furniture etc......ok I said......OMG......they brought both sets of parents (again), brothers, sisters, cousin, aunt, uncle and a grandmother.........all with measuring tapes!!!!!
Anyway......we completed about 6 weeks later with no problems.
Really hope the bloody Waltons don't want to view this house I'm selling!!!!

You would have thought 12 viewers would bring one buyer wouldn't you? Why don't they just have the manners to let you know why? It will sell soon.

Is it a really busy road then? Do they not know the area? Waste of time.

Surely the EA knows what their budget is, I wouldn't go to look and waste everyone's time including my own, if I couldn't afford it.

Hopefully Julie it is going to be better in March with more viewers coming on to the books. We will all sell eventually I suppose.


Good luck for tomorrow Maisey.

Any more news Fly?

Can't believe how much has gone on today, can't keep up but am addicted to seeing how everyone is doing.
