Looking at houses. Get a call from estate agent. A house is maybe coming back on the market, their chain has broken and they're looking for someone who can complete quickly (I can).

 

We view, it's nice but a long way off my dream home and overpriced imho.

Next day I say to estate agent. We like it, it's not perfect but we'd be willing to make an offer. What are they realistically looking for in the circumstances, remember this is the equivalent of me saying "how much for cash"?

 

Phones back "We'll the deal they would like to offer is if you'd like to pay the same as the offer that fell through".

This was, £35k over the asking price, to complete within 2 weeks and I'd be left unable to move until the summer.

Made me laugh anyway. Not sure the estate agent appreciate that.

 

The follow up of "but it's valued at £xyz" got a response of "well go and ask the surveyor for the money then".

 

 


There’s always one… or in the current situation way more than one who seem to have forgotten things can go down as well as up.
