    It just seems that some people struggle with the concept of a cottage. Which is exactly how it is marketed.
    Maybe, but some people are just plain rude

        I was pragmatic, we had sold it and had the money to buy a much bigger place in a nice little close.

        Remember you are after their money not their friendship. Sometimes their comments make sense and you can do something about them.

        Maybe the agent details are misleading? More photos required?

                  With estate agents you can giggle about people's "interesting" decor with the owners you have to pretend you love it, when in reality you know what's going.
