I just had a viewer leave the house 10mins ago. She booked the appointment last week so i thought this could be the one. She knocked on the door and said is it ok to bring my friend in too? That wasnt a problem except that they are both from the area, and i knew them both. I asked what their situation was and one girl said her house isnt on the market yet, but she has always admired this house (the only detatched in a half mile radius) so she just came to see what it was like!!!!! AARRRGGHHH! I only finished work at 7am, took hubby to work, done the school runs and rushed back home to start cleaning for someone to come and completly waste my time!

Im not a happy bunny!

I was reading somewhere today that if you look at a house in Perth for $550k then look at offering $499 that was a couple of months ago so prices may have come down more.

They are saying things are even worse there now and very little is moving.

They are predicting the same happening to Qld sooner rather than later.

This is why I am prepared to risk taking offers on our house just to get rid and move on, what ever we make on the house we are lucky enough to have a made a very good profit.

I appreciate that others are not so lucky

Sharleen I would be tearing a strip of the EA are they not vetting people surely they have been doing their jobs long enough to know who are timewasters

Get the EA to show someone like that around if they want to waste someones time let it be their own.

We had a viewing from a couple who had made an offer on a property already and just felt like having a look around our home to get ideas for the one they are buying !!!

Dont fret - chances are they are trying their luck. They probably r using it to test your reaction to see what they can get it for. 2 weeks ago a woman offered us 50 thousand less than the asking price on our house! She made a further 3 substantially increased offers until we finally accepted. I hope this happens for you too and will keep my fingers crossed for you. She may have made the offer with a view to metting you in the middle....only time will tell. Good luck.

Our house has been on the market for 13 months now,and our current estate agents are the worst ever.We have been with them since december and in january i popped into the office and noticed that our house was advertised at the wrong price,anyway they said they would sort it out and off i went,i went in again in february and it was still wrong and once again they promised to correct it,but still haven't,but the best is still to come.Last tuesday we dropped the price by £17,500,and as i was passing the agents,noticed that it was still the wrong price,anyway we popped in to see why it was still wrong,and the useless person in there said that he was unaware that we had dropped the price,and had just given the details out to someone,with the old price on,needless to say we have given them their written notice.
