House negotiation. 20:19 - Apr 3 with 6935 views

on for 389. Reduced to that figure in feb (dont know what from).

Previously with a different agent (who are known locally as the premium agent and tend to over price...)

Part of me thinks that an offer of 375 might be insulting if they have already taken the psychological hit of a reduction. Another part of me thinks if I mroe reasonably go in at 380 - it looks like an invitation by me to meet at 385. Which is barely worth haggling over at all.

What do we reckon?

Absolutely right. Why on earth would a seller be so stupid as to give a figure back, unless they were absolutely desperate to seal a deal for their next move?

If anything, the fact they've not 'countered' suggests they're in a strong/contented position and you'll either have to pay up if you love the house enough or move on.

I always find it funny when people quibble over 5-10k on a house they're paying £375k for. You're talking £10-£20 more a month on a mortgage, if that.

Because no one in their right mind asks the price that is the lowest they would possibly take.

Anyway- got it. They called back this morning and made a counter offer which I found acceptable.

Now I just have to find the frightening amount of Stamp duty required.

On reflectiion, i think they are holding out for 385. They know if they counter at that figure, im likely to meet in the middle and say 380. If they counter higher than that it looks like a pi ss take.

They have set the price. They don't owe anyone a counter offer.
