Catlover561 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Hello, We just got gazumped on a property our hearts were set on in Underhill road. Awful situation with a dodgy estate agent. It was a 2 bed flat and was nearly 800sq ft. Everything else I see has much smaller dimensions. Does anyone know which roads I should be focusing on or is anyone looking to sell a spacious 2 bed with a garden? We have a very healthy deposit and our mortgage is approved. Thank you for any information you may have, advice, or leads!

Mrs TP Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 That's annoying. This is slightly vague but we walked past a flat at the Goose Green end of Crystal Palace Road yesterday, for sale and part of one of the bigger houses. Hubbie was thinking it was the whole house and was curious as to how much they are but when he googled it, it was ?650K so obvs a flat. Many of the roads around here are a mix. Somewhere like Underhill and immediate surrounds have predominantly big houses. Elsewhere roads can be a mix of larger and small properties.

Sue Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I don't know if any of them still remain divided into two flats, but the houses at the top end of Upland Road have big gardens.

SebsC Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 There?s a 2 bed with a garden for sale on Overhill (with Foxtons) at nearly 800sq feet. Marmora/Therapia are all quite large houses although seem to be pricier.

We have accepted an offer from a buyer who has not sold their property yet so we are not able proceed, yet the agent has taken it off the market?

SpringTime Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Why has the agent taken it off the market when the downward chain's incomplete? It could take your buyer ages to sell and they might not achieve what they want for their property and then not fulfill their offer to you. I'd have a word!

KidKruger Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 What?s the point of accepting an offer from a buyer then still actively marketing the property through an agent - you?ll lose the buyer in an instant as anyone can check whether that property is for sale still !Also - why not contact the buyer to let them know you?re actively trying to sell to other people because you don?t want to be dependent on their property disposal.

SpringTime Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 ED_local_JM's buyer is still for sale though, so they can't proceed and if they accept less than ideal for their property their offer might not mean much anyway.
