It's only silly when you've sold it for more.
He's only trying what many others are at the moment ... looking for distressed sellers to get a bargain.
He's not to know you don't NEED to sell.0 -
Tell the agent to tell him you need time to think about it.
Then keep him waiting, and waiting, and waiting...Been away for a while.0 -
How do we know his value isn't right?
Warning ..... I'm a peri-menopausal axe-wielding maniac

An "idiot investor" would be offering £125k...
And an "idiot bank" (or "ex bank") would be offering the money.0 -
I wouldn't pay much more than 75k for a "100k valued house" at the moment.0

In 6 months time you'll look back on this thread and cry.0

The trick is then to go with one of the buyers who are undoubtedly offering you the full asking price
Oh wait, there aren't many of those about at the moment..0
