Hi FA, @*&&%%!@@#, this is what came to my mind when I read your last posts. It most be so hard for you, dropping the price and then get a cheeky git to offer you a price which is like I said in the beginning *#&&^$#**@. About your lovely OH and his footy addiction
![Wink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
1. OH, if he goes out to a footy game, leave the car almost empty of petrol;
2. make sure you've overdrawn your account, so he can't get any money out;
3. put an advert in the paper saying the game isn't on;
4. renew your vows and refer to the years without footy;
5. don't let him know your an BE addict or he'll try to trade that adiction
against his.
Miranda xx
Well viewers are on for 17.30 today, so my 3 hours of cleaning cleanathon will commence after I've brought Joe to school. That'll be around 9. See you all later!

Thanks for the sympathy, I need it!! I wished for an offer and now I have one, I'm gutted... see, you shouldn't wish for things.

Fingers crossed for your viewing and all the cleaning - I am cleaning today for tomorrows viewing. I hate it, but it has to be done.

Well, I have not got any news. OH didn't get home until midnight and I told him what had been offered. He said it was too low. I pointed out a few things like the property market is crashing....
Then he went to sleep and I stayed awake until 4am tossing and turning. I want to go to Oz and I know it is shallow to think abbout money, but I just kept coming back to the point that the offer is too low.... We wouldn't be able to buy a house AND start a business. We need that option as we have to live in SA and HAVE to work for a year to get PR. Unfortunately, there aren't that many jobs for my OH, (even though he is on their skills list and they have sponsored him over.

I drove past a house for sale near us today and rang the agent to find out what price it was on at as I couldn't find it on their website. He told me it was on with another agent at £475K. They had dropped the price to £450K with them and would accept about £420K. I was stunned - fancy saying that - I hadn't even asked how low they would go - only the price. then he proceeded to tell me all the other houses in the area and how low they would go. I am so angry for those people - they are paying the EA (A big national chain) to sell their house for the best price - not the cheapest.

EA just rang and they liked the house but get THIS!!!
The women didnt like the fact that all the houses look different around this brand new estate ! And they didnt like the fact that there are cars parked along the streets as you drive in to our private col-de-sac where only 4 houses reside so parking never a problem!! WHATS WRONG WITH PEOPLE!
I think they need an extra £200,000 to be honest and live a footballers life style!! EA said he thought she came across as a bit of a snob.
So thats another NO, my hands are chapped with so much bloody cleaning, not easy when 2 kids trashing the room i've just cleaned before i've done the next aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhhh!

Too many pages gone by so hope everyone is having some luck. Well had new EA in who basically said he thought we were doing the right thing being with our current EA???????: WTF???? He did come from an area away from us but they have a shop in Worcester. I said we wern't at all happy with current EA as have to chase them all the time for feedback, seem to have too many properties etc etc... I thought F*** me do they not want the bloody business or something? Anyway he is sending someone from the 'Worcester' branch to value - dunno why he couldn't or why they didn't ask me to ring the Worcester branch in the first place
Pissing EA's really starting to do my head in
:curse:
Hd an email tonight from current EA from last viewer, they have just listed theirs on market but absolutely loved the house. It seems we never have any negative feedback but no one wants to buy???:curse:
Anyway moan over! Hope others are having better luck![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Good luck tum with your viewing.
Morning, am getting the rental people out for tomorrow if possible. Thought would try 3 different one's and see what they offer by way of service and costs.
The rental insurance for whoever wanted to know (can't remember sorry) is taken out when you have a tenant in there with say a six month contract. If they do a moonlight after 3 months then the insurance is supposed to cover the next 3 months payments, minus any deposit they left.
Was looking on another site last night and apparently there is something that everybody should be doing to sell their house, here goes:
Get a red envelope
Put in a piece of wood from inside the house, can be just a splinter or something not a bit of 4 x 2!!
Put in something metal from inside the house, like a screw or something.
Put in some mud/soil from your back garden.
Seal envelope and put in to a free flowing stream somewhere.
Apparently it is to say that your house is now to be passed on to somebody else.
I have another one too but will save that for later. Don't want you to think I am a crackpot
![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Don't know whether it works but might be worth a try. There will be all these red envelopes floating down streams around the Country
