too small ( think this may be an excuse the rooms are not small see dimensions)
too rural or far from town (sainsburys is five mins walk away)

Quick, rough and ready research, shows that the most ever paid for a house in your road was £225k and that was detached.

But I've no way of telling where in that list your house would come (or even if I got the right road)

Make a list of all the things close by - someone said they'd done a viewers pack listing schools, pubs, shops.... a mini map would show people they're not quite alone.

Room sizes? Annoying when people can see room measurements - have you got a lot of furniture in?

I think this is the real issue for me about sellers versus agent viewings. Peope are no normally impolite (in person!) or hurtful, and unless you are watching every nuance of their facial expressions as you show them round they will be very polite and then seem to carry this back to agents. A good agent might be more approachable with their real feelings as they might want him/her to show them other things on the books.

Anyone looking at a cottage should expect dimensions and you are not too rural in this area :rotfl: your practically urban :rotfl: for rural somerset.

No, I think there must be some other reason:o

hmmmmmmm yes you are on the right road and got me intrigued as to where the bloody hell that property is! it is a country lane on the skirts of frome but one end is heavily built up and opposite trading estate there was a bungalow up that end so it was prob that one being its recent by all accounts it was pretty minging and like i said not in the best position. thanks though!

From yours it looks like it would be heading into town, before Manor Road (after being level with Manor Furlong), first row of detached houses on the right, first houses after all the fields you'd have just passed.

The house looks lovely looks like a french chateau to me. Could you explain what you mean by shared drainage never been emptied, sounds interesting!

If the property isn't selling then it must be overpriced.

You've knocked off about 6%. You need to knock more off.

You beleive it is worth £235k. The market thinks it is worth less. The market is right, you are wrong. This is clear because the market has the cash and you do not. If you had the cash and the market had the house, then you would be right. This is economics. You need to lower your price until it matches the markets price.

Knock off £10k a week until it sells.

You can knock the money off now and it will sell, or you can knock the money off later and it still wont sell. You DO NOT want to play the game of chasing the market down. It is NOT a game you can win.

Until the buyers cash is in you pocket, the house is worth precisly £0

There used to be a website called Property Snake that actually searches and lists properties that have reduced prices, but then Rightmove and co slapped a law suit on them and they ceased operations.
