House on the market, no enquiries

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat.
I've put my house on the market, reasonably priced, refurbished but I've had no enquiries. We've got really good numbers of clicks on right move, like an 8% click rate, nearly 200 page views a day but wrve had nothing.
Our agent has said people are waiting for the budget tomorrow? Is that right?
I've reduced once and still nothing.
I've found my dream house and I'm worried I will lose it if we don't get an offer soon.

That's what the agents have told me, they are saying either way after the budget people will either be like ah well, or happy days. But people will be more certain of things rather than it being still up in the air.
Personally I've never followed a budget, I'm not very political, but I'm hoping it is the reason and after this week we will have an influx.
I know people are commenting about the price, but I do honestly think it's a good price for a 4 double bed house with a brand new kitchen and 2 reception rooms

You agent is talking nonsense. Nothing in the budget is likely to have any impact on housing market. The interest rate increase, however, is likely to negatively affect buyers.

You’ve got to give it a bit longer @Ayekat9 especially with half term and so on. The market
is slow and a lot of people want parking so fewer potential buyers. Putting the price down won’t make people who want parking decide to buy it?

Really valid point, your house will only attract a certain type of buyer.
