I agree with this kind of strategy. I used Nethouseprices to decide what I'd find 'acceptable' as a current offer on my place and, although I didn't like the answer much, I went with it.

However, you can't expect Mr & Mrs Joe Public to be so clued-up, so methinks a winter plus a 'non-bouncy' spring will be needed before the ostrich-factor is finally eliminated.
