Someone once told me that normally decent people do 'funny' things when it comes to selling cars and houses. Something to do with the large sums involved. Actually, perhaps it just shows their true colours - bit like having a one too many drinks.

Bummer a bit too late, have asked for a few additions, to be fair some of it will save him a few grand.

Just don't seen too keen.

[woohoo]

Budget? Tell them that's what it's worth to you. Agree that you don't want them to think you've fallen in love with it.

I'm not too sure about talking about addons/builders as they'll get the impression you've mentally moved in.

Do you need to give a reason to offer under the asking price apart from saying that's your budget?

Good luck

That's not what it says on the wall of the end cubicle in the gents at Wigan Wallgate.

Alas I've never been to Wigan....

Need more than fosters - a large bottle of gin at least.

Unopened and within 12 months of Use by date?

Well, I was hoping if I bunged you a couple of cans of fosters you could pop up for the open day.

It is bit half arsed as well. Better to wait for the open day, and bung a score and two litres of cider each to the local unsavoury youth, to hang around for the day.

Am guessing you're up north where £20k equates to about 50% of the asking price.

I wish that was the case but desirable locations cost money, even up North.

Unfortunately, that suggestion is rather underhand and not my cup of tea. Also, i don't have a couple of friends!
