Oh Emma so sorry they pulled out. Why do people keep you stringing along, probably gutless. You've sold it once so it should go again. Fingers crossed.

OMG Fly Away, that is ridiculous:curse: Hope he comes back with a more sensible offer tomorrow

Theres not been much action on the viewing front and dont want to qinx it!!

Good luck with it, sure the PJ's wont matter!

God fly really feel for you you do have a lovely house. If I wasn't going to Oz and had the money I would buy it. Tried to send you karma but I think I'm giving it to you to much

My viewer came with her daughters this evening as her OH couldn't get out of work, they loved it and said it was the best they had seen and she wants to come back again with her OH, I'll have to start charging her rent if she has another view

Tina x
that sure sounds promising!!!!!!
maybe you should invite her for dinner instead

There are times when wine is essential. Thinking of you Emma, I know how I felt when our sale fell through - gutted. I know it's not much help, but it does stop making you feel sick after a while. At least you already had it back on the market so haven't lost too much time.

Fingers crossed the ad works for you.

I have no news - EA said she would get back to me first thing.... it's now 10.15... I suppose the guy said he had to go away and think about it. We had a talk last night and said we would accept £20K under even if it is advertised at offers OVER. BUT we would not exchange until we got our visa - which is due in Mayish. That is academic if they don't come back with the money though....

Hi Emma

Sorry to hear about your buyer, why don't they just tell us up fromt instead of avoiding you and the EAs - b*******s
Hopefully you will get someone else along really quickly

Hi FA

What a cheeky man (was going to write something else but thought I would be polite)
But as you say, he may be just testing the water, and come back with something far more realistic. Fingers crossed for you.
Lovely house by the way

Thanks girls - nothing yet....

It took him a month to make this crummy offer though.

I'm just tidying up for the viewings Thur and Sat and have my fingers crossed that these viewers are interested.
