I've just scanned your thread. I'd not tell H where you'd move to. Get the agents in and ask them if getting work done would improve the valuation- that will cause a delay in getting the valuation agreed, and hence a delay in getting the place on the market. And yes, wait til after you're back from your hols- you should both be there to see the agents (hard as it will be).
Sorry for the very short post- just got in from a very busy day at work. Got your e-mail though and I'm looking forward to choir if I can make it- can I let you know how work goes tomorrow?
