surely it’s sold by now ?  I had 2 offers on Saturday afternoon,  over the asking and going to final sealed bids tomorrow.  Only went back on the market on Tuesday.  Mines nothing special 

Still there it seems, and at the same price.......

Is it? Original link from page 1 is showing as no longer on the market.  Can't be rrsed to trawl through the thread looking for a subsequent link.

Glad you sold and for a pretty decent price relative to the initial ask.
Thanks for letting us know - its good to see the outcomes.

@Crashy_Time - we went under offer 3 times for £275k.  Final time was November and no chain, but even so took until last week to finally complete (everything is going so slowly).  

Well done, good result for you! The SD holiday must have helped? Also you reduced 15k from your original asking price and the garden is quite a decent size? Maybe you got a sale just in time......

I would agree with that article about everything taking so much longer.  We had a very straightforward transaction with no chain, the buyer was very keen to be in for Christmas.  They suffered delays with a mortgage decision which didn't come through until Christmas, and they were worried about starting searches without the decision so delayed submitting search requests.   These were in for new year but they didn't get those back until 19 Feb and then we exchanged and completed on 26 Feb.  Previously with a similar straightforward transaction in 2015 we did everything in 5 weeks (and that was with a lot of Solicitor queries too).
If people are making offers now they need to make sure they are requesting searches without delay.

You're quoting a post from three months ago - OP has confirmed it's sold since then.

Yep, definitely, unless he extends it again...?
