House shopping continued this week.
We returned for second viewings on two properties and have discounted both. SWMBO nixed the first one, and I found the second one too small, too cold and too noisy. Otherwise it was lovely and would have suited Jerry.
Second viewings are essential. We should have done that in the past really but la de da.
The problem with house shopping is that fatigue can set in at some point. We've probably now viewed ten properties - three of which we walked away from after 30 seconds.
We are learning though. Some Estate Agents are better than others shock horror.
The big national real estate chains are bad news - overly motivated by profit margins and sales targets rather than establishing an honest relationship with customers (us).
The one offer we've put forward so far followed the estate agent's advice and we didn't even receive a counter offer from the vendor. Clearly we were being used as a means for jacking up the price.
So we'll be avoiding Bairstow Eves from now on, people.
All up, we need to get something soon before a more jaundiced world view upsets our apple cart further.
Jerry is waiting patiently (sort of).
Love and peace - Wozza
