Thanks, I'll look into it

Its my 21st birthday in a few months n I have NO idea what to do or where to go! I want to do something different, something that I've never done before and that not many people have done. Anyone got any ideas?? Cheers

I get paid, but I'm only brain dead on a sunday morning! haha But no, i was a bit harsh, they aren't all that bad when they put their brain cells too it

Worse than zombies lol

America has things in place for everything (or so they think), thats why they pump out these films like I Am Legend etc, they're rubbing it in that they're prepared and we're not. But little do they know, the Armageddon is waiting to kick them right up the backside!

I wouldn't worry about the mess to be honest, whoever left the door open on their last visit is to blame, they should have checked the house was empty before leaving. I hope you get them out soon!!

Haha small world lol! I will do, she does remember u, she was only talking about u the other day lol - all good though dont worry lol. If u have Facebook, she's on there

My mum knew him. Anyway, Big Ange as she was known, used to work on the door every weekend. She was also known for her tattoo's. Apparently there was only 1 other woman who had tattoo's at the time.

Yep Big Ange or Beast I think as well! She went off and got married then had me lol! She's gettin back into the scene now tho, spends a lot of time with Dawn & Geoff. And yes, Dawn has a sister called Diane but I'm not sure on her past, I've only ever known Geoff

Did you know Dawn & Geoff?

Sorry lol. Her maiden name is Wigfield. I think she spent alot of time in Doncaster as well.

Hi My mum used to go there, she was mates with Crazy Dave, Cockney Steve (sadly deceased), Geoff and loads more. I don't know if you know her, she's called Ange?

41 years, wow, thats a long time! Anyway, I'd suggest giving it another month, then dropping the price by a few grand and see where that takes you. As long as you're happy with your agent as well, and they are doing their job properly. Godd luck

Well the good thing is that you have no mortgage, so there isn't a major rush. All you can really do is hang fire for a month or so and if there is still no joy, try another price reduction. If your agent has a mailing list in operation, then a reduction will then match to more people and your agent can circulate particulars to a wider range - including people they have already handed brochures to and also people who have viewed before. Usually, someones first offer is cheeky, but will usually give more serious offers that reflect on their opinions of the property/area/neighbours etc. Hardly anything sells at asking price anymore, unless its a repo or the vendor is really desperate to sell so put it on at a remarkable price. How long have you been on the market for, if you don't mind me asking?

Sam is right, a property is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Getting people in is all about the advertising, good pictures, detailed brochures with info on local area and an agent that doesn't lie through their back teeth to you helps a fair bit too. If it looks good on the web or in the paper then people will enquire, if it's in a good spot for people to see the board and if its on at a reasonable price then you're going to get interest. But, once people are in - are they liking what they see? People are fickle and shallow these days - can't see past what's put in front of their faces - like with the decoration. In an ideal world, prospective purchasers would see past that and think about what it would look like once they put their own touch on it, but they don't - they want so much for as little as possible so everything has to be done for them. Another issue is the competition, with 80% of buyers being investors, they can buy repossessions below market value, do them up then rent them out. Does your property appeal to investers, first time buyers or families that will more than likely have their own house to sell? Theres so much to take into account when it comes to selling a property in this current climate, but its not going to get any better for at least 3/4 years. House prices will take another dip, so its better to take the chance on a lower offer now than wait and your property only be worth less in the future. Sorry to ramble
