So I need all your thoughts concentrated on the people today - to make them put in a GOOD offer.
In and out quick eh, did you frighten him off? Strange that they come to see it separately though, I would have gone back with him to have another look. You just never know who is going to buy do you? Fingers crossed x

Thanks Nicky.. he said his wife was looking after their 2 kids (2 and 4) Goodness knows. Hopefully she loves it and has just sent him to rubber stamp it. Shame the other couple will be ducking out for a while as I was hoping to have a bit of competion. sigh. Still have option 3 and 4 in reserve.

Don't lose faith. Things will happen. Even if they aren't the things you are hoping for. I keep telling myself that even if we don't get to Oz, there will be a reason and things will work out for the best.

Hi guys
Well after 36 viewings with one EA and over 12 with the other we finally got an offer today. Offered £292000 but we refused and accepted £296000 they have had to pull out on another house as survey horrendous they have a mortgage offer and their buyer is well into the process. We have been told we could exchange by mid June. I am soooo exhausted and yes it isn't what we wanted but pretty near and in this market we decided to grab it and run. We have to validate by Oct 13th so it was getting close. So fellow whingers just wanted to share it with you guys as this thread has kept me sane even though I don't always post I always catch up with you.

Fingers crossed that this mood is catching FA and that your viewers put in an offer today. Didn't think this couple was going to and was so fed up with whole thing that it knocked me for six when we did get an offer.My feet are firmly on the ground though.
It just goes to show that sometimes quick is good

Gonnago whereabouts in the Emerald Isle are you going? My ma and Pa come from Eire so had many many holidays there.

Default Re: Whinging Pom House seller

Thought i would come and have my Whing for the day,

Week 1 on market=no viewers/no contact from EA
Week 2 on market=no viewers/no contact from EA
Week 3 on market=no viewers/no contact from EA
starting week 4 nothing

still had nothing from EA no phone calls nothing, i had to call them last week as i thought they forgot they had us on their books, cant wait for sole agency to finish so we can get an EA that seems a bit more interested and keeps us informed, good or bad.

wanted to ask you guys what should i ask the new prospective EA, and should i go for a very large EA or a average size EA, we are with a small one at the mo and that obviously doesnt work.
