Too cynical?

We are starting the process of selling our house. It went ‘live’ on the market on Monday. Tuesday morning the estate agent rang to say someone wanted to view that day. Due to circumstances we couldn’t manage that but arrangements were subsequently made of a viewing yesterday. Later the estate agent rang again to make another appointment on the same day, so now we had one at 2pm and one at 6pm. Yesterday morning estate agent rang to say first appt couldn’t make it as ‘he was going on holiday’ confused. The 6pm did not show up.

Are we ultra cynical to start thinking the estate agent invented these appointments? grin

I agree with Framilode - if the price is right it will sell.
We've sold house many times too. the last in France. We were told that it wouldn't sell unless we dropped the price below a certain level. Those above that level weren't moving.
Which we did, after some time thinking we could get back what we'd paid into it. In negotiation still had to drop a little but it sold, to a lovely french couple who took on our cat and hens too.
Our agent was very good.
