    But no one expects their first offer to be accepted, so surely they'll up it...? xx

    We have an unacceptably low offer.

    I have never offered on a house and actually expected to pay that. They will know you have been on the market for a long while and will of course be cheeky, no doubt your asking was higher than your bottom line too, can you start to work towards that? This still could be the start of something exciting!

  • We are in possession of an offer 40k higher than the last one. Hoping we can put a chain together.

    I was ready to post that the first offer is a start and hopefully you'll get a second offer! Great news, are you going to accept?
