Ok so it's only been 4 weeks on the market which I know isn't that long, but we've had 11 viewings and not even a cheeky offer or request for a 2nd viewing, I just have a gut feeling we're doing something wrong, or the EA is?
We've spent every weekend so far making ourselves available for viewings and put our lives on hold as a family, cleaning and tidying from top to bottom, the EA is never available to do viewings for us because they say they are so busy at the weekends, so we feel like we're doing all the work for them, and we're obviously not doing a very good job! Or maybe we need to relax about it a bit?
I do feel like they're just sending people round for the sake of it and hoping to get lucky with an offer, rather than sending us people who are genuinely interested, I've already asked them to mention to people our garden backs on to a fairly busy road through the village, and that it's also close to the railway line, we've priced ourselves 20,000 lower than like for like properties up the road without these drawbacks, yet people coming round seem surprised and immediately put off when we show them the garden, and so I'm guessing the agent hasn't actually mentioned this after all?! Feedback is always the same, lovely house and area, but garden is too close to the road and railway - why are the agents wasting all our time sending people round and not telling them this? Can anyone offer any advice?
