Must seem strange, but yes!
a) There is no way they would let it go for the 'asking price' it was just a starting price. That has already been proven by the last 3 EAs to market the property.
b) Eventual sale price was still £60k to £70k below market value based on sale price of similar properties in the area.
and c) IT'S OURS NOW! Well worth it.
It was just the whole uncertanity of the buying process that was causing the stress.
