Quite a few of these signs have sprung up around town. I'm sure I can't be the only one who finds this offer decidely dodgy. [img]../images/forum/we-buy-houses-fast.jpg[/img]

I saw one outside on the traffic lights outside Tesco yesterday, 'dodgy' was exactly what I thought too.

Got to be pretty desperate to sell if anyone needs to even consider something like this..."full market price" if only it was that easy none of us would bother with the usual estate agents and weeks of showing people round that either can't afford it or have nothing better to do at weekends than look round other peoples homes.

You should ring the number; I was telling my best mate about this on Sunday. He works in property and couldn't wait to speak to them. He randomly found a property in Chigwell on the internet at £2.5 million; checked out the details and rang the number on hands-free. Eve is Polish and the conversation was hilarious. She was sat at a computer typing away on rightmove and offered him £2 million and no more, there on the spot. My mate said he would accept £2 million 3. She wouldn't budge, even when he whispered to her "go on, you know you want my property, two million three quid" (£2000003). She refused and we fell about laughing. I just hope for his sake this mobile number is standard rate as he was on the phone for ten minutes or so. [:D]

'Eve' has a landline now on her flyer, so you can ring up and not worry about the cost ;)

Isn't against the law to fly post these signs?

The young lady in question was standing next to one of those yellow signs today, next to the burger van by the closed Oddbins. Not sure how many houses she bought today.

I saw two of these signs this morning and the words "& PAY FULL MARKET PRICE!" as shown in the OP's photo, were not on them.

There's one on a post by the underpass next to The Ruby. I walked past it with a group of 9, 10 and 11 year old children yesterday and even they laughed at the naive marketing.

Identical signs are tied to traffic light posts in Hemel Hempstead, so the lady in question certainly moves around.

There is one on Port Hill. Very unsightly. Tempted to just go and cut it down and sling it in the bin but wouldn't want to deprive anyone of the obvious entertainment value of phoning this young lady :-)
