It's a very courageous vendor who braves the opinions in this forum..
I have to agree.
OP didn't put up the link to her house, and there was no indication she was willing to, so harsh criticism of it was unfair. It would have been sufficient to say that it looked overpriced compared with others in the area.
It's a lot for someone to take on board, especially in half a day. I found it unpalatable enough readjusting my expectations when I was selling, and I didn't have loads of negative comments about my house to contend with either!

To be honest I feel it is totally unfair on a poster for someone else to post a link to what might be their house (and probably is).0

Bit stupid of them to give identifying information then!
You might also note that I didn't make any comment on their house, merely pointed to the similarly sized property nearby priced at £245k less.They deem him their worst enemy who tells them the truth. -- Plato0 -
The trouble is that Liverpool isn't London - or even Reading or Guildford. The economic basis of the area cannot support such houses. As potential buyers you are looking at partners in professional firms, GPs and hospital consultants, company directors and very senior people in the Police, local government etc. These people form a small, even tiny, proportion of the local workforce.
And of course, the drug dealers and footballers....
