Home Sellers Told No After Request To Remove England Flag Before Viewings

They will wait for initial viewing feedback before deciding on any further approach.

Overview

  • The couple had seven viewings lined up when a neighbour displayed a large England flag from an upstairs window.
  • The husband asked politely for the flag to come down before viewings, and the neighbour refused, saying such buyers would not be the neighbours he wanted.
  • The flag remained up during the viewing period, according to the homeowner's account shared on Mumsnet.
  • Public responses were mixed, with many commenters advising the sellers to drop the issue rather than press the neighbour again.
  • The sellers said they are not offended by the flag and raised the request over kerb appeal, noting no prior problems with the neighbour.
