PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

Another house will come along. You just need to find it and next time offer what you think it is worth not what your family think it is worth. After all it will be you that is living in it not them!0

We just lost out on what seemed our dream home today.
2 offers (including us) today, Both offered full asking price and both FTB with AIP etc.
They called with their offer at 9:10am and we 9:30. The buyer wanted a quick sale and therefore no bidding (EA also couldn’t believe it as we were happy to easily give £5k more which we said when we offered as we knew it was popular). He settled by accepting the first offer on the basis that they offered first. Crazy!
