Whinging Pom House seller (The Continuation)

Re: Whinging Pom House seller (The Continuation)
They only had 2 children in the first place and now have just 1 living at home. Their DD lives in Hoddesdon too so could be convenient for them. He is MD of an alarm company so I asked him if they do servicing for ours and he said "well if we buy it, no need because I would do it myself"........just can't get too excited about it though as have heard it all before.
OK, so they have 3 bathrooms each... hmmm, I wonder which one I will use today??
I was a bit like, well this is going to seem small to you after your house, but they said they have had enough of something so big. They have a cash buyer and the survey brought up a problem with dry rot so have had to reduce it 10% for the buyer to still have it. Hope they don't try and drop ours too much (if they even offer)
I hope they don't make a silly offer. I wonder if they are moving because of the dry rot???????? Fingers crossed that they are genuine and make a sensible offer.. God I want them to be the ones more than you!!!
Hope you had a great time in Oz. Good luck with the auction too :
Thanks everyone for all the good wishes

EA rang to say the 1st viewers who were gonna put an offer in have lost their buyers & the 2nd viewers who came back on Tuesday have put an offer in on another property but have said if its declined they'll put an offer in on ours :curse:
So its back to square one Boo Hoo!

Re: Whinging Pom House seller (The Continuation)
Hi all - Well just had viewer round and they are downsizing from a 7 bed, 9 bathroom house. Imagine all those bloody loos to clean They really seemed keen and have sold theirs with exchange happening in 2 weeks. Kept asking me if we would move really quickly.......of course I said yes
They also wanted a project to do and we have the plans done for a 5th bed/en-suite loft conversion and a double storey extension out the back, so they could get their teeth into that one ok.
This was the most positive viewing I have done so am keeping fingers crossed that they offer. OH said don't get too excited as a lot of people rave about things, just the way some people are Hope not.

Re: Whinging Pom House seller (The Continuation)
Oh, so sorry to hear that. Hopefully they will come back. You had two really interested buyers so lets hope you get some more pretty damn quick
Hi N - Been having a real busy time de-cluttering and burning paperwork (which gives me great pleasure) Also loading other site is slow at mo, think something to do with my network. Will sort it eventually. Not sure about these buyers now had time to think, sounds too good to be true.
Have started praying to St. Joe again but now I have been thinking about these buyers and have looked on rightmove but cannot find anything with 7 beds and 9 baths Will try and stay optimistic though

It would have to be, can't imagine why they would have that much otherwise. You have just given me an idea of which house it is now.
Well am off out to netball again today. I am an England talent scout and this is the last event I am attending Speak later (Too young for your Scott - they are all under 19)

Re: Whinging Pom House seller (The Continuation)
Yes, could be. Lets hope so. I just don't trust buyers now and am so impatient They are in Broxbourne, which is walking distance to us.

I hope you find out that it is genuine!

Hi all
Just to say thank you for all the good wishes and nice messages I had, I'm sorry I've not been on much, we are relying on a mobile internet connection which is expensive and unreliable!
Have been in Tassie a full week now, have seen a rental house we like (after some seriously dodgy ones!) have an appointment to visit the local school tomorrow morning before we make a firm decision.
Have been out and about, getting to know the local areas, also been to the local market, a winery, wildlife park and seen some beautiful scenery.
Hoping that you have had some good news and there are more of you able to get out here soon too

Re: Whinging Pom House seller (The Continuation)
I don't think I'm ever going to sell my house
15 long months and only 3 viewers
Dropped the price to basically what we paid for it 3 years ago........and still nothing.
Beginning to have second thoughts about this whole emmigrating lark due to financial circumstances
