Avocado Property

I met Ricky in Feb 2023, when I was still considering my options. Ricky is a lovely guy, he listened and helped me understand the process. He visited me in the evening, meaning I did not need to take time off work and communication via WhatsApp suited my needs (I have hearing impairment)....until he started using voice notes! The property listing was different to others in that he did a video walk through and drone view. But it still missed one of the bedrooms and initially didn't include the solar panels....surely a major selling point as that's what is different from all the other similar properties! Viewings worked well, Ricky managed these and there was plenty of time for me to plan to be out of the way. Ricky did seem to be always overly optimistic, perhaps not quite in the same reality, although housing market is an ever changing picture. I got a buyer in May, they then pulled out a couple of weeks later, with reasoning that never felt right (not sure if that was them or Ricky relating it). Having already put an offer on my buying property (which Ricky helped brilliantly with the negotiations/ offers) I was restricted to selling price when my home went back on the market. I felt that Ricky did not listen to me, or acknowledge the circumstances I was in. Again he was overly optimistic. Wanting to lower the price when I would have been in negative numbers due to the offer on my buying property. I looked around for a new estate agent (in June), but despite being in contract since Feb I was not free to exit. I had served notice but before this time was up Ricky did find me a buyer. When the seller of my property pulled out, Ricky was very helpful in making contact with estate agents, providing additional detail to the property listings and eventually securing a better price for me on my chosen property, which is much appreciated. Everything worked out in the end, but my overwhelming memories are not all good, I still think Ricky is a nice guy but his optimism a bit off the scale.
