If the contract does say this and you get a private offer, you can always take your house off the market and exchange after the end of the contract with the EA. That way you are safe.
Good luck with it. As you say, viewings are what you need.

Re: Whinging Pom House seller
So long as your EA contract doesn't say they want commission for sales they haven't introduced you're fine. If the contract does say this and you get a private offer, you can always take your house off the market and exchange after the end of the contract with the EA. That way you are safe.

I just had a quick look at the letter they sent us and it says
"We wish to confirm our terms of business,which are in accordance with our confirmation of marketing, that completion of sale with a purchaser introduced by ourselves our fee of 1.25% plus vat will become due,.This a strictly 'no sale no fee' basis"
so i think we are ok

Re: Whinging Pom House seller
some magic and sanity for all of us 
Morning
It's a Sunday here today, as it's the Queen's birthday (well actually it's her late mother but April is a better month for festivities than winter time). We're waiting for the confirmation of our EA that our buyer agrees with the date of exchanging which will be around mid June if everything works out. So little time............so much to do
............luckily my OH is more sane than I am.

Re: Whinging Pom House seller
Thought I would cheer everyone up 
Turned on PC this morning and was greeted with this on the Yahoo homepage:
House prices have fallen by an average of nearly £45 a day since the beginning of the year.
New figures show that the average value of a home in the UK has dropped by £44.39 every 24 hours or £310.73 a week so far during 2008, as the property market slows down.
The pace of the falls has accelerated during the past 30 days, with homes seeing an average of £55.40 a day knocked off their value, according to property valuation website Zoopla.co.uk.
Overall, the group said the average price of a home in the UK had fallen from £224,046 at the beginning of January to £218,764 on April 28.
People in London, where property prices are highest, have been the biggest losers, seeing an average of £133.58 a day or nearly £1,000 a week wiped off the value of their home.
Homeowners in Surrey have seen the second biggest falls of £96.41 a day on average, followed by those in the Isle of Wight at £96.12 a day.
Properties in Berkshire and Oxfordshire have seen seen falls of more than £90 a day, while homes in Devon and Middlesex have seen ones of more than £80 a day.
At the other end of the scale, homes in Hertfordshire have been affected the least by the downturn, seeing an average of just £5.25 knocked off their value on a daily basis.
Properties in Wiltshire have suffered daily slides of only £5.35 and homes in Cambridgeshire have seen £9.12 knocked off prices every day this year.
Unsurprisingly, detached homes have seen the biggest price falls, losing an average of £71.68 a day during the past 30 days, but flats in England have actually seen their prices rise by an average of £2.84 a day since the beginning of the year after suffering price falls towards the end of 2007.

Hope you have a lovely day off and fingers crossed that your buyer, (isn't that a lovely word?) agrees to a date soon. Rainy and cold here - hope it's better with you today and you can get out somewhere nice with Joe.
Fingers crossed for some viewers for you. xxxx

I can quite believe it. Ours has gone down more than 10% in a year - even on the lowest valuation.
I am still counting on everyone to keep their fingers crossed - I have lots of irons in the fire and I hope at least one will come to fruition soon. That's a fab mixed metaphor isn't it?
BTW a little bird told me that it's Gonnago's birthday tomorrow.
