I suppose it's just coincidence that this poster comes from Wrexham? I knew from the start that it wouldn't end well! :rotfl:

Just to throw in my unqualified 2 pence...
If I saw a house had been on the market for more than a few months, I would offer significantly under the asking price. If I saw something had been on for more than a year I would get the feeling that something is probably wrong with the place. Or that the seller really must be desperate and therefore I really would put in a ridiculously low offer in the hope of getting a bargain.


Personally if I had a property that wasn't shifting, I would take it off the market and put it back up with a new agent.


These online agents certainly seem appealing too! Maybe that just to likes of me though.


Best of luck with it

I'd come to different conclusion for any property that's been on for a year or more... that the vendor is too stubborn, greedy and deluded to accept that their property is seriously overpriced and it's not worth wasting my time viewing or making any offer.

If I was looking to buy this house I would be looking at it as a do-er upper and the price needs to reflect that. I can’t see that there’s much you can do to make it look any better without spending a load of money on it. Only things I would suggest is to get some sticky back plastic to put on the kitchen tiles/worktops that would add a bit more colour to the room. If you are prepared to spend a few hundred quid then replace the flooring in the bathroom and kitchen with a more modern looking lino. There will be some new year sales on where you could pick up cheap lino for around £6-£7 psm. If you can be bothered to go to the effort of sourcing furniture for the rooms then do, as that will make it look lived in. I’m not a fan of concrete gardens, but putting a few more colourful potted plants down would help.

Good luck with it

Still seems to be the norm in many cases?
