  • So, the other bidder lives in my close . Wants to use it for investment purposes . Their offer apparently is £ 370k
    They have large deposit to put down.
    'You don't have to take either of them offers '...

    So, the situation is , both have to submit their max bid by 5 pm.
    Whoever bids highest wins.
    I did say that I prefer the sound of the first time buyer.
    He said , he wants me to get as near to the asking price as possible .

    We'll see...
  • Thanks cat :) yes I do . Bizarrely enough, the first couple saw it the other way.
    What may happen ,first time buyers offer £378k , the others £380.
    I go with first time buyers :)

    Hi, AC, do the investment couple have one to sell or, subject to mortgage, will they be cash buyers, do you know?

    I think it's mortgage , but no chain .
    No doubt I'll be filled in with the details today :)
  • Still edgy, tired and weird .
    I'm laughing at the fact that I'm smiling around the building and can sense a few people running me down again.
    But, if all goes well, bye bye horrible people :)

    That's the spirit, AC! Next humid summer, they will all still be there with their pettiness and backstabbing and you will be admiring the palm trees... or it that Torquay?
  • Yeah, bye bye rubbish;)
    Funny thing is, there are less people . the floor I work on is bare.
    The backstabbing is more visible than ever :)
  • SOLD TO THE FIRST TIME BUYERS £375,000
    ( 2& a half grand less than the others).
    So. Here we gooooo.
    Hopefully all will be well .
  • I'm de-lurking to say congratulations!! Hope all goes well!
