The serial viewer. Diary entry 28/09/12

Serial viewer 

I think most people in the Uk are interested in property. However there comes a time when you need to establish a difference between looking for a house to buy and just looking at houses for a hobby.

Over the past 6 months I must have shown one particular lady around about 30 houses. She has never made an offer, never booked a second viewing and never took any of these viewings any further.

I often ask myself, "why do I do it? Why do i keep showing herround these houses when I know that he wont offer, she wont buy the house??" But I still carry the slight belief that the next property I show her  she will fall in love with it and make an offer and buy the house. UNTIL

Yesterday after having a nice conversation with the lady at the property she was viewing she said and I quote " Ive been looking for 3 years now, and im also looking at houses in Liverpool, Manchester and Scotland"  My reply was...." You must have seen a fair few houses then," to her reply "302 and I have them all on a spread sheet with pros and cons against them all"

Needless to say after this comment I quickly finished off the viewing, Locked up the property and dashed back to the office vowing I will never waste anymore of my time with this person.

She has booked another viewing for tomorrow. And yes you guessed it, I will show her the House in the hope that this will be...............THE ONE!!..........
