dances with sheeple Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 There is so much tat that was considered "must have at any price" a year ago that they soon will not be able to give away. Oh how things change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sofa Spud Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 One of our local estate agents had special signs up a fortnight ago, with the current date on, saying: 'There's never been a better time to buy'. This week, on the 3 occasions I've passed their shop, it has been empty, as have all the other 7 EAs in town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamOn120k Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I received an equally bizarre piece of marketing desperation from my local Jaguar garage last week. To quote "because the dealership has already met sales targets for the period, they have organized a special sale promotion weekend where even larger discounts will be offered". My take-away, the local Jag dealership is heading for receivership so wait for the stock to be dumped at the British Car Auction ring which is only ½ a mile away.

nohpc Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 (edited) No wonder they want to move - it must be a due a massive council tax hike with that view! if properties with nice views pay extra shouldn't properties with views like that get a discount? I don't understand why anybody would buy and live there and not plant trees to block out the monstrosity in the background.

The "spring sale - special price - short time only" and "was £460k" references have melted away like Easter snow... Could I be forgiven for taking a cynical view ?

deflation Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Dixons Estate Agents (part of Countrywide group I think), white on green logo, have put this in the local free paper: ...Exclusive 'Make us an offer Weekend!' 22nd, 23rd and 24th March.. I kid you not! That's right, buying a house is something you do on a B/H when the weathers a bit chilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
better-than-expected Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 One of our local estate agents had special signs up a fortnight ago, with the current date on, saying: 'There's never been a better time to buy'.This week, on the 3 occasions I've passed their shop, it has been empty, as have all the other 7 EAs in town. Funny you should say that as my local estate agents has a big sign in the window stating that houses are "selling like hot cakes!!" I take these are hot cross buns to tie in with the easter season. Also in my local free paper another add said, "Don't believe the news. Houses are still selling and they're selling fast!!" Had to laugh he he Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
