Don't do that just sit back and admire your hard work - if you have kids they'll do it for you - no problems.
We have our first viewingwith the price reduction - boy are they getting a bargain. fingers crossed for selling our houses.

I'm bloomin angry on your behalf though.:curse: Just because it is a buyers market doesn't mean they can treat us like dirt. I've had a few do this to me. Some don't even cancel.:curse:
Lets hope they re book it and fall in love with it at first sight.
Had a look at classifieds and saw all your houses on there - it is gorgeous I don't know what people want now. Lets hope something sells soon.
There is nothing wrong with anyone's houses - they are all lovely. Buyers want the earth! I bet, we could put stamp duty paid, removal costs paid, cars thrown in free and babysitting for a year and they'd STILL want more.:curse:
Lets hope it sells before it even gets into the paper. Fingers crossed.
Well it sounds like they have got started , heres hoping they have a great solicitor who gets on with it.

Don't do that - you might get another viewing and then you won't have to clean up again.

I have just booked some rental valuations and found a gardener / handyman to look after our house if we leave it. It feels good just to be doing something.
![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
Oh our new details came - lots of errors - now corrected and emailed to agent.

It's so disappointing when people treat you like that....the only comfort is that one day they'll be trying to sell a house & then they'll get it back in spades ![Frown](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/frown.gif)
Good for you Fly, for keeping yourself busy looking at alternatives... it drives you mad just sitting around feeling helpless, doesn't it?
Just emailed OH a whole list of jobs he could potentially be interested in.... early days yet, but gotta dream![Love](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wub.gif)

We haven't really looked at jobs yet. Mainly because we know, there aren't many suitable jobs in Adelaide and OH is going to have to take anything that comes along to get his one year's work requirement. (We were going to buy a business but if we can't sell the house, then we can't....

Viewer turns up at 5.40 (aarrgghh do they not have kids to feed cos I do!!) not even a sorry we are late:curse: Poke about in the loft then go. Wasn't interested in the rest of the house just the loft (the only place I hadn't cleaned
).

I am a bag of nerves I keep waiting for the phone to ring telling me our buyers are pulling out, when I see EA's number come up on my phone I brace myself.
Its all these stories of doom and gloom they have really got to me.
Its been a week since the offer and what with the Easter break things are now starting to move they have instructed solicitors so hopefully we can move on quickly because my nerves cant stand it.
Good luck everyone hoping that you get some viewers for the weekend.

Yeah, I'm living on my nerves...would it be bad to call the solicitor tomorrow to pester even though we only spoke to them Wednesday? Sending vibes for you.
It never gets any easier does it? You think you're through the worst and then something else stresses you out.

Hi Dave, it's so annoying when they do that. :curse: It hasn't happened to us yet, but we have had some late arrivals. ![Frown](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/frown.gif)
LOL. I feel like that sometimes too. I'm sure my kids do.
Nightmare. :curse: Wonder why they wanted to look in the loft. Some people eh. ![Sneaky](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/sneaky.gif)
Can't hurt to keep on their case. I say call them.
Good luck with your last day.![Smile](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
PMSL. If you do make sure you post the piccies. ![LOL](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/lol.gif)
Why couldn't I have had a viewer today. The grass has been cut, the sun is out, the house looks great in the sun, everything looks really nice. Oh well. Someone will probably come when it's pissing it down.

Really fed up now.
got a phone call from agent at 4 o'clock (just got in from school run) to tell me we have a viewer at 5. mad rush of housework. 5 o'clock comes and goes. Viewer turns up at 5.40 (aarrgghh do they not have kids to feed cos I do!!) not even a sorry we are late. Poke about in the loft then go. Wasn't interested in the rest of the house just the loft (the only place I hadn't cleaned).
And to top it all I have to smile
