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.

I'm sorry, how is that a personal insult? I just asked if you regularly ignored people. Which would be what the vendor was doing under your scenario, I highlighted how that was unlikely as you wouldnt do that.Unicorn_cottage said:

Maybe the Estate Agent knows you are a chancer? Just accept you haven't got the property and move on.abanksee said:

A chancer? 50% deposit for the property and no chain. Doesnt matter if people are chancers or not, of that's the highest offer you receive it's either sell or remarket which is what we offered them to do.Unicorn_cottage said:

Why don't we have a charity wager on whether I secure the property with a discount or not?0 -
Polite sensible sellers probably would, especially as they might need the buyer again in future. Not everyone spits their dummy at reasonable business/economic common sense.Unicorn_cottage said:
