Taking house off the market with no offers and 2 viewings

ChirpyChicken

Just leave the house on the market

That could mean more charges?

Two viewings in6 months suggests it is overpriced or something is putting viewers off. Have you asked the EA why this is happening?  Did you market at the price they suggested?

On the fee I think 120 is very fair given the work they have done.

EA`s tend to price high to get the initial business, using an app like PropertyLog will give you a better idea of where asking prices are headed in the area.

It really feels like about time you explained what your interest is in this app - you mention it in just about every thread you post in - if you are being paid commission then I think you should probably be declaring that! (And I also think the forum rules probably preclude advertising products and services for personal gain!)

  My interest in this free app is that it allows you to see sellers cutting their prices, and from the speed and amount of the cuts a potential buyer can gauge the sentiment of the seller and how open they will be to low offers, no one makes money from free apps, there are just too many of them, and they are free!

What is your view on house buyers having more price information, do you think that is good or bad?

Then tell the agent you're leaving on the market, but a review of your finances means you need to increase the price by £20,000 firm to now make a move viable.

 What good will that do?

It means he won't pay a fee, and if he gets an offer at the new price he can move. I thought that was pretty obvious?

Is there a reason you keep mentioning this app by name and not any other app that does the same thing? It definitely feels like you're trying to advertise/spam it especially given how little context you include.

The chances of getting an offer at a higher price will be pretty unlikely if there are no offers at the present (lower) price?

Context? Not sure a free app that tracks property price drops on Rightmove needs any more context. Is there a reason you think people shouldn`t use it?
