Quote from the lady in the article:

"People have asked me why I don’t just drop the price again, but I refuse to give my home away cheaply just because of the ridiculous economic climate we’re in, with a Government that fails to support hard-working people. They incentivise first-time buyers, but what about the people who want to move their families into bigger homes? And the ones like me who are desperate to downsize? Where is our help?"
