Estate Agent Says No Interest In 2 Months Since We Accepted Offer

This year?HummingBird76 said:I put my flat on the market and had 15 views lined up after 2 days. On day 2 I got an offer which I accepted on day 3. At that point, all the other viewings were cancelled (but details kept on file) and all my solicitors efforts were on getting the sale completed. I'm really not sure why you are considering "alternative buyers"? Are you hoping that someone is going to put in a better offer? If so, that is a bit off.0 -
@Crashy_Time yes, just last month. I think I just got lucky with timing. I'm in Edinburgh and there has been a sort of mini boom here. Ended up getting way more for my flat than I ever thought I would. Just lucky I know, but where I gained on my sale, I probably paid a bit more for my house, so it balances out.2

Same, Mine went on Friday afternoon, 14 viewings booked by Monday morning and over the asking price offer by Wednesday night.
