Have dropped £50K from the original valualtion so peed off but what can you do - i am just trying to look at it as we havent LOST money, we have just had some pillock(or two pillocks) who decided our house was worth more that it actually was in todays market!!!

Now Spring is coming its at least a nice time to be at home, the winter was just awful and our heating bills have been scary!! We are on LPG so you can imagine!!!

At least some of us are now moving forwards - Fly, hope your ok with the situation, I have a feeling we may have to drop further - not sure how low we will go to be honest, but friends of ours on Gold Coast have said that the market is slowed right down over there too, so fingers crossed we will get a bargain over there!
hi Jo, yep it sure can get you down if you let it . hopefully we can sell & follow the slump to get "a bargain" but i'm more inclined to stick to rental for 8 -12 months before buying . depends on your plans of course . good luck

Afternoon all

FA must be in the middle of her viewing now, fingers are crossed.

Just dropped another 25k with new EA as going in the paper this Friday so thought it might stir up some more interest. That is 75k altogether now, how much lower do we have to go?

Anyone got some good news today?

Hi nic just a thought, instead of keep dorpping why do you do offers over what ever price you have just dropped too? I might get you little bit more instead of less

Viewing went well folks. They have just accepted an offer and as it was the woman, she wanted to bring her OH back for a second viewing. Need more crossed fingers here!!!

We reduced significantly too Nicky - just now getting interest after 9 months of nothing... hope it works for you.

That's what we've done, but still our only offer was less than our 'offers above price' so don't know if it works.

Let's hope so! Although the news was dire today. Don't they consider how it will affect people's lives to keep spouting this stuff?

I don't want to say this but I think that we are probably priced right to sell now. Our first price was likely in a good market.

Good that there is some positive news out there too, shame it isn't going to happen now though.

I hope this is the one Nic, it was on the house wasn't it? We are not going to drop anymore unless on an offer because we are already way under the other houses on this road. Am keeping fingers crossed for 2nd viewing for you.

No - she didn't say - I presume she'll have to speak to him.

Thanks hun. Non of us will be able to walk with everything crossed for everyone else.

I really feel like all the good vibes and nice messages have helped this happen. I was very negative and now I'm a lot more positive and things are happening.

Everything crossed for you Fly. Hope you come on here tomorrow with good news.


We have another viewing Thursday its from the EA we want to get rid of. Just as I'v had enough of them they start sending people round. The guy coming Thursday was sitting outside my house when he called the agent which is a bugger as we were at Tennis and my house is tidy could of got him done and out the way. The cheecky agent started to tell me he talked the bloke into booking to see mine silly bugger had forgot he had just told me he drove past and saw the sign EA's just cant help telling lie's.
