Ahh, thanks for that Kdal!
Yea you're right....it's just having the patience and the TIME to wait for THE ONE buyer!!
We've had a few full price offers.....then never heard from them again! We've had couples who love it so much I thought they were gonna move in on the spot....then never heard from them again!!
I've just dropped it 5K.....installed 3 new ultra modern bathrooms...re-landscaped the garden...new carpet in bedroom and new oven and hob! Oh and kicked my pathetic liars of Estate Agents into touch!!
So fingers crossed the new agents should be a step up from the idiots we last employed...and no I'm not being harsh, infact I'm being quite generous just calling them idiots!!
I'm a bit scared of the agents in Oz from what I've been reading on here though!! Why is it that 90% of people (whatever the profession!) are just out to sting you? How do these people sleep? I'm too soft....I wouldn't sleep for the rest of my life if I ripped someone off knowingly!!
I'll be using this great site to find an agent, plumber, electrician etc when I get to Oz! There's nothing better than a personal recommendation!!
Oh god I'm ranting!! Thanks for listening!!
Lisa,xx

Hi Lisa
What a lovely house can't believe someone hasn't snapped it up, trouble is i think everybody has the same idea we are all emigrating, is it only the sale of your house that is holding you up or are you still waiting for visa? Good Luck,Lou.

Hi guys
Our house has been on the market 3 weeks and having our first viewing on weds, she apparently loves it from the details and doesnt have to sell her own property to finance ours. Im sure they all seem keen and after reading previous threads im not getting too excited.
Fingers crossed for us all
Lisa x
