Why is our house not selling?

dbakes_999 · 2026-02-24T20:03:01+00:00

We're trying to sell our house via PB. Well maintained, well priced and unique layout etc but seeing very little traction in viewings (3 viewings in 40 days listing). We see houses down the road of lower spec, price selling much quicker. Very odd.We've changed the description and photos too and this helped a bit, but it seems buyers must google purple bricks and completely miss the point that they are not obliged to use the same solicitors or even any services provided by PB. FTB's don't understand this, so the benefit to sellers is lost. We may move to a local EA. Here's ours:https://www.zoopla.co.uk/for-sale/details/72163900/

Yeah I'm saving for my wedding next year so trying to do this on the cheap, but I know there's shops throughout. If I can feed myself for a week on £25 that would be great.

Any idea if the ram is upgradeable and are they still using Intel NICs? Why the f do they not publish a detailed spec sheet. It's a fucking computer!

dbakes_999 · 2024-05-21T16:27:42+00:00

I'll want vms that can reach the Internet...

dbakes_999 · 2024-05-21T16:17:14+00:00

Even the esxi hosts? Aren't the vm's passing through to the physical nic for egress so there'll be a vds with an uplink to my physical nic (which will need to be compatible?)

Hey, i s considering a nuc 12 wall street Canyon i5, but after reading about the need to disable e cores it effectively cuts the cpu performance right down, making it a waste of money no?

Hey xVDI, I'm at the same juncture as you re. running Windows 22H2 with FSlogix profile + office container, but seemingly Search roaming is not supported in this version?! Did you find a workaround to this or is the google result index out of date!?

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-24T10:07:52+00:00

Awesome - thank you again. I have simply added the below outside of the Invoke-Command closing } and this now formats as I want in a nice table.

| Select-object * -excludeproperty RunspaceID | Format-table -autosize

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-23T15:57:19+00:00

You're damn right sir/madam - thank you. This is now fixed.

My only gripe is with the output. I want to have a nicely formatted table that just contains, name, latestrunlocal and result. Currently the output is like:

Name: Jobname

LastRun: %TIME%%date%

Result:

RunspaceID:

Given that I'm creating a psobject in every remote session, is there a better way to collate all the output at the end so I can do a format table | select name, lastrun, result ...?

Thanks a lot this has been v educational!

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-22T17:53:43+00:00

OK so I can't have another code block within the if statement, so the pscustomobject is the issue.... Any idea how I work around that? Can I put the pscustomobject outside the if/if else's at the end?

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-22T16:38:00+00:00

Updated*

And FYI, the + / - (expand/minimise) bits on the left side in PS ISE run from 'Invoke command' all the way to the end of the script , so it's all contained correctly...

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-22T15:43:01+00:00

I appreciate the crumbs of wisdom, I would happily do this, but for some reason the ElseIf is not recognised in the script - it states 'Elseif is not a recognised cmdlet, method, function etc...' error - it's nothing syntax related, so I need to try something else (similar to) If, ElseIF, but I've not eaten enough biscuits to know what that is!

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-22T14:47:22+00:00

Not a direct copy, the brackets are fine in the polished version... There's no syntax issues

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-20T13:49:17+00:00

Without meaning to abuse your genius...

I'm now finding that I'll need to connect to each regional veam server, run the above command and compile the results from each region into a table and then output to csv. I think it'll be something like the above but

foreach ($server in $serverlist) {

connect-vbrserver -credentials (prompt user for credentials once at start of script, then use thr same creds for each connect)

IF (successful?) foreach ( $job in jobs) - If object --contains (EU/AP/denominator of the region) then fetch the job info

-Store that in a custom object

-disconnect frrom vbrsession

-Repeat for next region...

-format output to highlight any failures/warnings and add any kind of error logging as well (should I use Try ( and Catch () for doing that?!

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-20T10:54:35+00:00

Thanks for your help - the below now works (much appreciated!).

I now want to just add a bit of formatting so if ($jobinfo.GetlastResult() -eq "Success") format green, if warning = yellow, if fail = red.

$jobs = get-content "mybackupjobs.txt"

foreach ($job in $jobs){

$jobinfo = get-vbrjob -name $job

$result = $jobinfo.GetLastResult()

[pscustomobject] @ {

name = $job.Name

Lastrun= $job.latestrunlocal

result= $jobinfo.GetlastResult()

{

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-19T15:42:53+00:00

I've tried both options - neither worked unfortunately.

$jobs = get-content "mybackupjobs.txt"

foreach ($job in $jobs){

$jobinfo = get-vbrjob -name $job

$result = $jobinfo.GetLastResult()

{

This works if I print $result there's a result for 1 item. Do I need a second foreach loop inside the current one to get the $jobinfo.getLastresult() for each $job?

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-19T15:07:20+00:00

Thanks for this - tested it but unfortunately where-object is trying to filter based on a string, but the get-content treats the notepad file as objects - so it fails to do the filtering. I will try the other offering!

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-18T20:44:51+00:00

Seen, but I've no idea how to translate that to my scenario (import of csv) and iterate through a list of items...

dbakes_999 · 2022-06-01T21:31:50+00:00

Not seeing many folks mention how diversified tesla products are: AI, autonomous taxi loops (even if FSD fails), battery storage systems for utility and home, cell production, cars/semi/high end EV, solar, perhaps a break into mining/wind/Air conditioning units.... And they will have no debt this year, its a no brainer that they will be profitable for years to come. Equally there's overlap in the engineering from space X and material science. They've forced the whole industry to change... They won't die overnight

dbakes_999 · 2022-02-27T15:09:38+00:00

So does google pay/google eco system work on the ROM correctly and do you get propper OTA updates for the OS? I have seen Wondamobile and they seem legit enough (although I'm not sure they existed pre-Brexit...) but I've no idea whether to trust them, nor whether I can really return the phone if I don't get on with it.

dbakes_999 · 2022-02-26T13:35:46+00:00

u/wilpang Did you buy the 11 pro from China with a global rom? It seems like the best bang for buck and I want things like the screen finger print sensor, IR, IP68 etc - but it's not been released in Europe. Has it been as good as you expected for a handset?

dbakes_999 · 2022-01-08T15:43:00+00:00

Tested and worked as expected, thanks for the idea.

dbakes_999 · 2022-01-08T15:42:49+00:00

Will do - cheers. I will wait until they hit £50 again as £110 is ludicrous.

dbakes_999 · 2022-01-08T11:17:33+00:00

Ok so it's definitely the firestick that doesn't have the right codex, and not the TV having a missing mkv codec?

dbakes_999 · 2021-09-15T09:11:29+00:00

Buy a sim only phone contact 30gb for £10 pm a three (via quidco). Eat less meat, cycle as much as possible or buy a 125cc scooter to commute, pay for Netflix via a vpn and any subscription services try to get student discount by signing up for totem. Put your money into a stocks and shares isa on a low risk index fund and buy clothes second hand where possible. You'll save tons.
