    Everyone is selling SA it’s just that they are going the minute they are put on the market when I am out for a walk I can see a house and the next day it’s got sold on it’s madness I am keeping everything crossed there offer is not accepted I sound nasty now shouldn’t think like that but it just had a feel about it I can’t explain but if we don’t get it it has to be I will just have to get in the frame of mind these things happen for a reason

    You could ask the EA to let you know about prospective new houses in your chosen area so you are at or near the head of the queue - just chat them up a bit  :#

    Done my walk this morning getting the house valued and put up for sale tomorrow can’t think of anything that is left to clean I have scrubbed and polished the place within a inch of it’s life just keep walking about with a cloth in my hand the house I like hasn’t been taken of the website yet although they told me they are talks with someone and a offer has been put in I’m just keeping everything crossed they don’t buy it but at the same time trying to put my mind to it been gone hubby and the dog getting thrown out tomorrow when they are here only one person allowed in when they are here I’m pleased I can’t trust what he will say to them 😂 we will see but my god we have far to much stuff even though I got rid of loads of things last year we could do with a spare house just to keep things in 
  • I am doing exactly the same although I haven't finished yet! my house is being valued on Monday. Fingers crossed we both get the valuations that we want.  Very good luck for tomorrow I will be thinking of you x

    You don’t mess about once you’ve made your mind up 😁 I hope you’re happy with the valuation and get good results both with the sale and finding a new home - you too Four Seasons. Exciting times ahead 😁

    Fingers crossed that you get the valuation and sales you want and that the houses you want are still available.
