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. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

    to be fair , I'll be using the stuff that brit posts on here to convince the vendors I'm doing them a favour offering them 91% of asking!

    they don't seem to be biting yet though...:(

    Suprised they won't take 91% though - where are you looking?

    They are a very elderly couple who are moving into a bungalow that they already own, which will be ready at the end September.
