    You may be coming across as too anxious. Can you perhaps practise with someone, even OH? Mostly people just want to look around for themselves, and they generally know how a house works, so there's no point telling them that this is the dining room. YMMV ofc.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Fingers crossed that you get an offer after the 3rd viewing, in fact I hope that you get lots of offers and it goes to sealed bids and you get £75k more than you were expecting (this actually happened a couple of years ago to my step mother!)

    ah alibob... if only that were true these days :)

    we'd settle for one quite near to asking price - im so anxious about tomorrow as they have lots of questions about the area - i have to stop myself from gabbling on :S

    That is great news, they must be keen if they are coming back a third time.

    Keep thinking positively! ;) After last posting on here our buyers pulled a hissy fit and we were told Wed 5pm that we'd best get out by 11am Friday or risk a 'walkaway.' :eek: So we did. Shows solicitors can step on it when they need to. We didn't exchange contracts till Thurs am.
    Think you might need a tad longer than your '20 mins' to throw a few things in a bag, Mrscmr. I'm still in trauma and not quite taken it in.

    Your turn next. :D Hope your 3rd viewing does the trick. ;)
