2. This advice was very good. At the moment I am in the process of renting my house and then renting out a better property in a more desireable place, until the housing market improves. The I will try and sell my house.

3. Hi, I am seeking advice on what to with regards to buying and selling at the moment. My husband and I bought a property in july 2007, initially to live in, but as my husband is in the forces 2 months after buying he got posted abroad. Therfor we decided to let the property and all move abroad.We have now decided that we wouldnt want to move back into the property when he leaves the forces (in 4 years) we think that it is too small for us,as our family has grown and that we would no longer like to live in that particular place within the area. We have seen houses near by but in a nicer place but they are more expensive. So do we buy now why prices are lower or do we wait and get more money for our current property?? Thank you very much for listening and your advice would be veyr much appreciated. Lyndsay Williams

4. The link does not work. All houses that are prices at the correct level WILL sell. If your house has not created any interest then the price is wrong, simple as that.

5. When are property prices going to fall in Windsor???They have been overpriced for years, it's ridiculous! The market in Windsors need to follow the rest of the trend in the UK by falling at least 10%.

6. Not sure what to do? We have had our house in West Sussex(5 double beds, 4bath, playroom, kitchen, living, dining, 3/4 acre garden) on the market for almost a year now. In this time we have reduced the price and had one unacceptable offer. The reason for needing to sell is, we applied to move to Canada nearly 5 years ago and this year we at last received our visa's. We have until the 28Th of July to land in Canada to activate and maintain our PR status. My eldest son is due to start University in September in Canada. We do not have the option of renting this house out as all of our money is tied into our property. We do not have jobs to go to so need the money from the house to live off as well as buy home in Canada. We believe that we are correctly priced, if not slightly under priced. Do you have any advice on what we could do to sell in this currant market as we are now running out of time fast. The only thing stopping us from achieving our dream of living in Canada is the sale of our house. Just not sure where to turn or what to do next, feeling somewhat depressed and desperate by the whole thing.

7. We have in line with the market reduced the price of our property and have just got an offer. However upon looking at properties we want with other agents we are finding that they have not even reduced prices over the last twelve months. When we offered a reasonable price in line with a 15% reduction on the top price paid for a similar property in the same road we are greeted with you are offering too little, as the expectations of the Vendor have been set too high by the Estate Agent. Price crash some Estate Agents in Liverpool are still inflating prices just to misslead Vendors into putting the property on the maarket with them. We would Kirsty and Phil to expose this sort of thing on your programme. This seems to be more relevant to todays Market.

9. Since when were these two 'experts'? Clearly, they are not to blame for the house price bubble, nor the subsequent crash, but they are symptomatic of it. Their advice does has not proven to be of value. Channel 4 you can do better than this, take their show off the air, and consign them to obscurity.

10. First (and last) tip - don't have listened to these two, who stoked the boiler for the last few years and got us in this mess.

11. I watched Relocation Relocation last night (5 Feb). As someone trying to sell in this market - because of one of the three D’s (death, divorce and debt - in my case divorce), I have to say it is completely unhelpful when people like Kirsty and Phil - who can have some influence on the market - say things along the lines of: sellers should agree to take their property off the market if they receive an offer and if they don’t - serves them right when the price of their property drops even further. I have twice taken my property off the market on receipt of an offer - for several months each time - while waiting for purchasers to organise finance. Both times the sales have fallen through because the purchasers couldn’t obtain finance. It is no surprise therefore that others in a similar circumstance will not agree to take their property off the market just because they've received an offer. To my way of thinking - an offer is totally worthless in this current financial climate unless and until it is backed up with an exchange of contracts. It would be more useful perhaps if you were offering some sort of hope to people trying to sell houses - as these people too are wanting to buy, and will often have the necessary money to do so. As someone who is desperate to sell their house, has priced it extremely sensibly and taken on board everything the agents are telling me, I get completed incensed listening to Phil and Kirsty constantly telling buyers to screw sellers down, because the market is so deflated at the moment. It’s hardly doing anything to help the market is it. Come on you two - how about taking a different tack and using your influence to try and turn things around.
