Mine is on the market and it’s a premium listing with the agent so it’s the first one you see we are struggling as we can go for a walk with the dog see a for sale sign go up and when we get home it’s sold 3 in the next street from me sold within 2 days I hope we as lucky we just need to be able to buy something0

Yes I am signed up for everything they are ringing me and emails and all the alerts they are selling as fast as they are put up I think people stuck at home are now wanting gardens I have a massive garden so fingers crossed 🤞 I don’t want to move very far out of the area as we are fairly rural and a couple of miles out we are quite isolated at least from here we have shops and a doctors library etc but a couple of miles away there is nothing we only have a bus service Monday to Saturday 7 till 7 and nothing on a Sunday bear in mind we still had snow up until last week I don’t really want to move much further up the dale unfortunately we are getting older1

Got viewings of my house Wednesday Thursday and Friday all first time buyers fingers crossed been for a good walk today after I cleaned house from top to bottom again I can’t relax in case anybody wants to come I’m having problems with my foot but starting back on the stretching exercises they help haven’t been weighed because I can’t remember where I hid the scales I have put so much stuff away I hope no one opens a cupboard door it’s like ker plunk2

Good news about the viewings. Hope something comes up soon that you like or you’ll be sleeping in a tent if the sale goes through quickly 😆I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

That's good news about the viewings. Fingers crossed as first time buyer puts you in a good position as they are the end of a chain so less to go wrong.

I put my house on the market yesterday, unfortunately they aren't selling quickly around me, so the challenge will be to try and keep it sparkling clean and remembering which cupboard I hid things in!! Hope your viewings go well and you get an offer for what you want fingers crossed.1

Good luck four seasons with your house it is a challenge keeping the house sparkling clean even when I’m cooking I’m opening every window I don’t want the house to smell and if anyone wants to view I just want to have to take the throw off the sofa and they can come but try telling my hubby that who still doesn’t know where the bin is and isn’t happy unless the table is full of clutter 😡0
