We listed our London property 3 months ago, and got offers over asking price. We went with one buyer who said they’d proceed quickly, and was the middle price and not the highest.
Three months down the line, they still don’t have their finance sorted. They respond quickly to questions, but they’ve had trouble getting a mortgage and still don’t have it in place.
Our solicitor says she hasn’t heard from their solicitor at all.
Now our EA is telling us our property is worth more than they’re paying, and that if we want to relist, she’s confident she can get a buyer quickly.
I don’t want to be unfair to these buyers, but we were supposed to have moved on June 30 (that didn’t happen) and now the July date we’ve given them probably won’t happen either.
I know a new buyer would take longer, but I feel a little bit like we’ve been strung along by people who can’t really afford our property anyway…
Should I relist? (If we do, the EA isn’t planning on re-marketing, she is going to go to her list of people and do off-market viewings.)
