PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

    And to cherry76 On what planet is 15k 'not a lot to ask'? And can I borrow 15k from you? And when I say borrow, I mean have, because it's not a lot to ask??

    Think you've miss-read what cherry76 wrote. ;) Cherry actually put "15k a lot to ask"

    Only time will tell whether you made the right decision. Dirty tricks are to be expected in any market, only now the tables have turned in favor of the buyer. They were plenty of sellers increasing prices upon completion on the way up.

    You may find you can't find a buyer that will be willing to pay just 4% of asking, and your flat could be hanging around in a rapidly depreciating market.
    Or you might find a cash buyer next week fooled into believing the false bottom, and willing to pay close to asking.
