House and home

House stagers. Do we have them in the uk?

I will be partly removing from my house in a few weeks, it needs to sell and no-one is buying anything in my county at the moment. Political uncertainties are largely to blame. I have reduced it once and am likely to reduce again early march, it is already at a very good price but I have reached the s*d it stage, can`t take the cash with me when I pop my clogs and am almost at exchange on a brand new house, hence the partial removals

Has anyone ever used a house stager? I have seen them on american tv programmes and they make quite a difference to saleability

yes, another time waster yesterday, didn`t get back to EA to confirm, was just going to have a nose on her way home to the metropolis. Escape to the country has a lot to answer for. At least I got the cleaning done

The viewing tomorrow sounds genuine as far as I know. House looks nice

Have people become really stupid? Home buying is now becoming a more complex (and costly!) business!
If I am looking for a 3 bed house that requires no major refurbishment
& with off street parking in a quiet location that is all I need to see! If therecare photos of the current owners family on the wall or a sofa I don't like it does not matter. They are leaving!
