Basically we need to move as fast as poss, out first buyers pulled out just before exchange last week, and we are desperate to keep the vendors from the house we love putting it back on the market...it's been a stressful week!
The good news is we had 2 offers over the weekend.
Offer 1:couple in their 50s.offered full asking price. Loved the house, esp garden (which is huge but needs work). BUT they haven't sold yet. Not even on market but they say they have been advised they'll sell v quickly. They live in v desirable area. Their property going on market today.
Offer 2: family with 2 teenage ds. Offered £5000 below asking. Have sold but are in a chain of 5. (Is this a lot.?) all need mortgages . Wondering about their circs as their house is still listed for sale on rightmove and price drop on Monday (found this out thanks to property bee!). They are with same agent as us and they (the agents) are putting pressure on us to choose offer 2.
Wwyd?! Think my judgement is being coloured by wanting the older couple to buy it. It's a v rural property on country lane, have to drive everywhere. Concerned the family with teenagers might change their minds when they think about the reality of driving everywhere! But who am I to decide that for them... Also concerned about long chain. But the other is a complete unknown. Sorry for the ramble! Just desperate to not to loose our dream house.
