Glad they say no, when you realise they only want an end of tenancy clean, or house is up for sale. If I see a for sale sign when quoting I refuse to give them a quote, make my excuses and leave asap :)
If I see a for sale board I price it accordingly as a one off clean, I then keep an eye out for the new owners moving in and pounce.

Ditto, so when they move out and i post a card for new owners. There is no miss selling when i say "i cleaned for the previous owners"

My missus recommended me to go on to a new local estate, hate em usually so I stayed clear
All their money goes on the mortgage and Audi

I hate Audi's, BMW, and to a lesser extent Mercs.  They are now the car of the debt-laden  "common" working  middle-class man. KIA are going that way too, so many 'trendy yummy mummies' are buying them renting them brand new all with their iphone enabled lives and tiny half million pound starter homes that has about as much room as a dolls house, but its OK as its all branded with SMEG and KKaapeishneiser (or some other ridiculous brand name).

I picked up a customer like this once, a 1 bedroom house one window up and down, small baby all in designer gear, brand new Audi's and ralf lauren polo shirts even for the dog..they paid 400k for this house, when i quoted for the windows as £20 min charge they were shocked, but hid it well. I knew that after 2 cleans they would cancell, they did, 10 month later the house was sold and they moved.

For all you know they may have moved on to a bigger and better house, their cars may have been paid off and they may have been very proud parents who wanted the best for their kid......and dog

A lot of people seem to have brand new houses with brand new cars these days! People younger than me driving round in brand new beemers and mercs ... I must be missing something  ???

No, they just have a better job and earn more money than you. Quite simple.  :D

ahh yes..but there is a difference between earning more money than someone and being wealthier than someone.

You can earn all the money in the world, but if after the end of the month your balance is 0 from all those repayments, you are effectively insolvent.

Exactly, according to the green eyed muppets on here whenever a customer has a nice car on the drive they’ve got it on the tick; because although it looks nice it isn’t an exact reflection of their actual financial situation. Theres nothing inaccurate about second guessing.
