I am not looking for sits in London as prefer coast and country areas but I do think this 5 applicant limit is very wrong. Most of the sits I have gained in the past there have already been 7 - 11 applicants or more when I have applied. I am not always that quick to spot them. It seems so unpopular with most people. In my opinion it should raise to at least 12. I am sure it is not popular with pet owneres either, as may feel they have to choose somebody, who they do not feel is really suitable.
This hadbeen moved over by adm,in from another thread.
I would like to add that I have only very recently found out aboutg this new 5 applicant rule, which must by why i had seen some sits and gone back to apply a couple of days later only to see they were no longer there. Why was everyone not notified? And I have certainly not seen any survey regarding this.
I am somebody, who when I do eventually spot a sit. (I do not look every day) I think it over and research exactly where it is and then get around to applying, if I feel an area I would like to explore etc. Some sits have been there a week or more before I have applied in gthe past. And even if sits have had 15 applicants I have ended up getting them. Now it looks like I will have a very limited choice. Or will have to apply quickly on impulse, before checking it out and deciding it isn’t quite what I want after all.
It would be far better if all home owners could choose the limit of applicants they wish to recieve. I really do not like this 5 applicant ruleat all.
