What does "Vendor suited" mean in a property listing?

Just seen this house (which I think you'll agree is the most charming house in the world ever) and it says "vendor suited". What does that mean?

It means the vendor wears a lovely tailored suit to go to work Grin

'Tis a beeyoowtifool house indeed.

onesandwichshort · 17/05/2012 10:55

I would guess that the vendor has found somewhere to move to. And yes, it is very lovely!

IslaValargeone · 17/05/2012 10:55

No idea but it's very purty indeed.

Means in wanky EA speak that the vendor has already found somewhere to move to, so won't delay the sale.

They must be pretty keen to sell, they've dropped the price £100K in a month.

It means the agent is a pillock, and needs a good slap.

It is a gorgeous house. Are you going to buy it ?

FULLY FILTRATED SWIMMING POND

:swoon:

Thanks! That must be why they've dropped the price. I doubt it will stick around for long though - seems good value now.

We're relocating from oop north to dahn sauf as DH has a job in London. We had settled on our area (deepest darkest Kent) but I cast my search criteria wider last night and came up with this gem. Schools situation not ideal - the nearest school with spaces (DS starting reception in sept) is 'satisfactory' but I shouldn't let a minor detail like that put me off when it has a swimming pond, should I?:)

I missed the swimming pond. How could I possibly miss a swimming pond? I love swimming ponds. Looked at a house in Essex that had one with crayfish. Can you imagine it, your own personal crayfish? You could just chuck the dcs in and they'd come back up with dinner. Pneumonia as well mind, but like you'd care, if you had crayfish.

You have to buy this house.

And it's dain saith darling Grin

it's daaa-hn sarf

ackchewely. :D

gomowthelawn · 17/05/2012 14:20

oh dear god in heaven, did I get in wrong????

dizzyday07 · 17/05/2012 16:35

I would never believe I would see a kitchen with less cupboards and workspace than in mine - but I was wrong!

The bedrooms are tiny and why would you want to swim in a pond?

Ponders · 17/05/2012 19:14

no chlorine, dizzy
& interesting swimming companions Wink
(I would draw the line at crayfish though. they have claws)

daaahn saaahf works too btw

Levantine · 17/05/2012 19:15

A swimming pond. That is my biggest dream thing ever. Buy it!

highinthesky · 14/07/2013 21:49

Great explanation wonkylegs!

OnIlkelyMoorBahtat · 15/07/2013 15:25

gomowthelawn are you from Northampton by chance? My grandparents were and that's how they would have pronounced "down south"! If they were "going into town", they'd say they were "orf dain tain, me dook" Grin
