House not selling? Think about this.

Surprisingly most people DON'T know about finding sold at prices from the land registry.
But they wouldn't have found out from your post, because you said: " You need to be in the list of SOLD AT prices, but that list isn't displayed, you need to create it yourself."

Create it yourself? Rightmove displays sold prices for postcodes of houses it's advertising, so does Zoopla and there are other dedicated sites like Nethouseprices.You don't need to create these. They exist!

SO what do you do if you search your local area and it turns out nothing comparable has sold in last 2 years? Where we are looking to buy the only things that come up for sale are the houses too small to extend or have been extended so are too expensive. The average 3 bed terrance/semi just doesn't come up for sale as it costs too much to go up a size or if it does it's been massively extended and is no longer a normal 3 bed.

You should be looking at list of SOLD prices and pitch your property at that level.

I thought that this was obvious.

My house in South Wales went up for 235k beginning of September, we accepted 227k 2 weeks later. We have signed and contracts officially due to be exchanged tomorrow.
Last night we had a random knock on the door offering us £240k, they had viewed a few weeks ago but not in a position to proceed. Just shows it’s all about right place right time. Too late for us though

Really? Many of your posts tend to stress how important national price averages are, especially numbers from vested interests who also sell mortgage debt. Why the sudden change of heart?

Yes, and the links were there to underline falling sales transactions. I am saying that the headline price averages are not important, but you keep quoting them as if they somehow mitigate sales falling 20%?
