sorry..
Think I could do with the pair of them to find me and racegirl a place 
Estate Agents are begining to wind me up, I've just asked one to go and measure the internal size of a garage at a house I wish to view but can't get to it until the 19th because they will not do 'out of office hours' viewing
From the reaction I got you'd think I was asking them to pop round and redecorate the place 
It's going to waste everyone's time if I turn up on the 19th open the garage door try to drive the motor in and fail, turn around and go home without even going in the house

I did something similar
Asked them to find out size of garage, couldn't (wouldn't) do it. They wanted me to come along and have a look (practically forced me). Anyway, I turned up with my tape measure. Measured the garage opening and inside, way too small, said thank you and left. They were pretty upset and shocked, but I did tell them clearly the minimum size for the garage. I sometimes pause and wonder why I am so bloody sad though... seen many houses that were nice, but no garage. No use to me.Yep, know what you all mean. Still trying to sell my house (triple garage) and buy somewhere more rural. They are either directly next to a steel engineering place, overlooking a water treatment plant lit up at night like Close Encounters or the garage is too small. G/F came up wit a gem the other day though....do you really need a garage? Actually seem one place with a double but garage remote to house (150yards) can't see me trailing up there in the dark can you. Still cannot sell my own place so scanning the web sites every lunch time is really irrelivant and beginning to bore me.
The one that winds me up (been trying to sell our place recently) is people offering (shite offer well under asking) when they are not even sold or on the market, standard response.....
NAFF OFF AND COME BACK WHEN YOU HAVE MONEY OR AT LEAST SOME CHANCE OF GETTING IT THIS YEAR!!!!!!!
We also instructed the estate agent handeling sale that we were only allowing viewing from people who were Serious i.e. on the market and actively trying to move. have turfed out a number of decorating idea seekers who wernt on the market with their own house (i.e. no chance of the actually buying)....
ARGGHHHH I hate estate agents, lets pray for a slump so they all chuck em selves of bridges!

Any estate agents on PH?
Business idea for you.
Website collating all properties for sell in the country with a motoring theme/triple garage or more. You take a cut on referral and completion of sale from the actual agent.
The idea being people like myself and Ninja can look for garaging with secondary residential accomodation using a geographical filter.
Anyone going to run with it?

That's a really good idea, but unfortunately wrongmove.com have such a strong advertising budget other sites haven't got a chance.

Sometimes I get the feeling I may aswell be talking Spanish when I tell them anything, racegirl asked the last one she went on a viewing with what council tax band the property was in, the reply from the estate agent....Loads of people ask me that, I've got no idea
When we tell them we have nowhere to shift and have a 'large' deposit and mortgage sorted it sometime makes them a bit more eager, but not much
Honest ! I hate them too
