We are selling a two bed flat in popular Surrey town, near station, allocated gated parking etc etc. We are selling because we have two kids 4 and 2 and with the four year old starting school (less nursery fees) can afford family house with garden (moving to Hampshire).
These flats are generally considered sought after etc but after a month on the market and a small price drop (5k down from what Dp wanted to what Ea wanted at start) we have had two viewings and zip all other interest.
Both viewers had issues with things we can't change (size of second bedroom, road at front). Both have said are waiting for other flats in block so its not nescessarily the price as ours is priced lower than the larger quieter ones.
The thing is, I'm getting really impatient to finally move as financially I feel like I have waited forever. Realistically, dd starts school here in September so we could and probably should sit it out and wait for the right person but part of me wants to slash the price and get OUT.
Can someone lend me some patience please? I get really hung up on dc not having a garden and getting older by the second. They are not in the least bit bothered as at good nursery with large outside space all week and we take them out to parks etc all weekend.
I know we are lucky to even have flat, mortgage agreed for house etc.
