OK - I know there's a credit crunch going on but we have a shared ownership property that we're trying to sell. It is Victorian (not part of any estate of social housing). And the actual mortgaged part is under 60k for 1/4 share.
It has 2 bedrooms, the second is pretty small (single room), and a small back garden. Because it's not on the open market we have to do all the viewings. I've done 5 and everyone has looked and sounded really excited... and then nothing. Once person was up front as she had 2 kids so I understood it would be too small. My DH did phone one person to ask for feedback and he said it was lack of space.
For each viewing we realy tidy up, clean properly, de-clutter and shift the dog out of the house.
I just wonder is there something we're not doing or saying or are we putting people off somehow. I haven't viewed any properties with the intention of buying for over 5 years, and that was as a single person so I don't know what it is that people are looking for and not getting.
Any suggestions would be really helpful.
