We're looking for a new house and we've seen one that we really like. Not perfect but very good. The house is on the market for £600k (yes, I'm in London) and has been on the market for 10 weeks now. As a comparison my house sold at asking price in 4 days.
We initially offered a slightly cheek 555k, which was rejected. We then offered 565k, which is what I think the house is worth. This was also rejected. We upped our offer to 575k which I wasn't totally happy about but I do like the house and there is not much on the market. We have been told that the vendors want no less than 585K.
So AIBU not to offer 585k?
We can afford 585k even if I don't think the house is worth it, but the main reason we're not increasing our offer is that we think the vendors are being unreasonable and I'm concerned that we are making an emotional rather than rational decision.
MN over to you.....
