  • Thanks for all the advice above folks. Much appreciated!

    I will send a link to the house when we inevitably don't get it!

    As this is my first offer, how do you best put that; 'should you accept this offer in writing the expectation will be that you completely stop marketing the property and help us get moving toward completion pls thx bye' ??

    Is there a generally accepted way of putting that? I know that estate agents are legally bound to send any offer to the owner... But is there a way to stop the gazumping?

  • Ultimately there isn't a way to stop the gazumping.

    But, telling them that you want it off the market and no more viewings will go a decent way to stopping it.

    Obviously they may refuse and then you need to work out how to go on from there.
