Is anyone finding their agents using 'Brexit' as a general reason for no viewings/offers?


My agent keeps saying this and to me I dont think I'm at a pricepoint which would really be impacted by either outcome. When i do get viewings the feedback is 'oh they like it, but Brexit. Do you think this is just fobbing off. I keep asking them for more specific feedback and they just keep giving this as a reason (Ive told them I'm happy to hear negative feedback also).


Is anyone else finding this, or do I just have a lazy agent?

Hi Mate


Agents will use any excuse for no viewings so brexit is an obvious one! They do have a point of course as Im sure some people are holding back given widely held view that Brexit would knock 20% (or whatever) off London house prices but if it helps... when I was selling I got- "Its Valentines day", "its raining", its "east weekend soon" etc etc!!!!


Chances are you might have too high an asking price but best to ask them how many registered buyers theyve got and if they are actively getting viewings on other similar properties to yours - then quizzing why you arent. At least make them work for their excuses


good luck

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By vladi · Posted

      Something doesn't quite smell right here and probably it's not  the chicken. Both the OP and TheWeekEnd specifically mention  chicken thigh fillets. TWE purchased £14 worth of chicken thigh fillets and they were thrown away "probably for the third time". £14 equates to around 12 fillets which is a lot. Could some have been frozen after purchase and then thawed? And thawed properly before cooking? TWE has a total of 4 posts of which 3 are on this thread.

      How to get rid of extra Garden/Waste large bins

      By Daniel_CR17 · Posted

      Thanks to all for the advice, very glad to have this community for these enquiries. Here is how it got resolved in case its useful for anyone in the future: I had ordered some garden waste bags, and when the Veolia person came around I just asked them, and they were more than happy to take it no questions asked. 🙂

      I keep seeing a thread 'missing cat', but you've been found.  Not sure if all would consider that a good thing.  Not a lot new happening ....  When you back in Blighty?

      Exterior Design Gardens - Oliver (Oli) Hawkins

      By Tams · Posted

      In March Oli and his team did an excellent job of the following work at a property I manage.  1. Completely removing existing broken front path. Covering and securing the void (coal shute) beneath using concrete lintels, waterproof membrane and concrete. Laying a compacted sub-base and new clay pavers. 2. Removing broken fence. Securely installing 6 fence posts and 5 fence panels across the end of the back garden. Base of posts wrapped in plastic  sheath and set in post mix. 3. Removing broken render from terrace steps and cleaning then re-rendering steps where needed and repairing other parts.  4. Jet washing rear patio. I would like to thoroughly recommend him to you for a job done very well at a fair price.
