    The serious buyers will view within days of a house going on the market. EA's will be mailing them out to buyers on their books and people that actually want to buy are scanning Rightmove daily (or at least every other day) and will book a veiwing with a house that meets their criteria.

    If you don't have any viewings within a week you are overpriced.

    We had viewings after a week and an offer after four weeks. Just going through the haggling process now!

    How many have you sold since 2008? i.e. how many in the current market?

    Our last house sale was 2008. And the market in the area was already heading slowly downwards.

    first viewing last week before house was even on the market and second viewing tommorow, fingers crossed. Are many houses in your area being sold?
