Our house went on the market Friday evening, on Rightmove overnight......
And we settled down for a long wait and/or the drudgery of lots of viewers.
Got a phone call from the agent this morning, can someone come round in half an hour. Well they did, liked it, offered too low on the spot, then the agent rang back before lunch with an increased offer which we accepted!
They've nothing to sell and are happy to proceed asap:eek: :eek: :eek:

I wouldn't come on here and post inflamatory things like that if I were you. Scores of people from this board will hunt you down and chase you around with their Gloom Sticks whilst quoting Nouriel Roubini at you.
Congrats on the sale.0 -

Nice! I would be careful getting my hopes until the completion form has their signature on it. There's no sale until that happens. Hope it goes well though. :cool:

Oh, and to save everyone else the bother, I'll say it first.
"You haven't sold it yet. They won't get a mortgage. It'll fall through. Stop counting your chickens. 92% of sales fell through last month. Etc. etc. etc."0 -
Excellent result. Well done. It must be a very desirable area or keenly priced. I hope eveything goes through okay. Keep us posted.0

That;s great for you - hope it all goes smoothly.
Can I ask if you deliberately put the sale price higher than you were prepared to accept because you were expecting buyers to insist on a reduction ?0 -
Damn, Snooze beat me to it.0
