I will be putting my house on the market some time this year and am really not looking forward to the viewings. We used to buy old properties, renovate and then sell on and I know only too well the type of people who view properties. You get the usual looky loos who have no intention of buying but seem to look on viewing houses on a Saturday afternoon as a bit of a hobby. Then the ones who tell you they have fallen in love with the house and they will definitely be buying - then disappear never to be heard from again. Those who despite having read the description continually tell you why the house doesn't suit their needs (not enough bedrooms, no dining room, sitting room too big/small). The last house we sold some people turned up unannounced, they had heard the house was on the market and could they have a quick look round, I was in the middle of doing the washing, hadn't hoovered and the house had that "lived in" look, they were the ones who bought it!
