Good News? or Bad News?

Our neighbour, whoi is also selling her house, is dropping her price to 160,000

Poor lady is desperate, and is going with another 4 or 5 agents to try and sell as quickly as possible.

So that would make 10 different agents, they all want 5%, as she's not exclusive, and she's also going to have to pay the government a something or other tax, as she's not a resident.

I reckon she'll let it go for about 150,000

They bought it, 9 years ago, for 180.00 and have spent at least 30,000, doing things to it.

Oh heck.................hate to say it but that strikes me as bad news Ton ((((((((((((((x))))))))))))))))

There is not a hope in wotsits that we would sell for that price.

But if some-one wants to offer us 160,000, I think the answer, well I know the answer would be a boot up the bum, out of the door

But look on the bright side - if hers goes, there is one less on the market

The repossession (bank sale) round the corner went for 200,000 last month.

Two down, two to go................

I think a boot up the bum is an excellent idea.

Possibly two Aggers

One from me and one from him

Goodness me dissent sound very good ton
Not much money about these days
Let's hope next year is better for you

[Workingman]

It must be horrible Ton, the fact that you are not in control of things, it's up to the market.

(((Ton))) all you can do is keep on keeping on, and hope.

Ta muchly xxxx

We bought for 170,000, 10 years ago. The exchange rate was about 1.5 so we've made paper money at least.

We just want a different adventure, but if it doesn't happen, it doesn't

[Diflower]

Well the good news is that she's desperate, and you're not.
And if/once she's sold, then the price won't matter, so you'll get any buyer who wants your area

[tonicha]

Thank you the voice of all reason xxxxxxxxxxxxx

I know you're right and we keep telling ourselves that we can stay.

And we can, we love the house, we love the area, we just want something differnt now

A bit of an adventure
