We are first time buyers, got our eye on a property that has been on the market almost 3 years (we believe the asking price is too high so suspect this is the reason why). The price came down by 10k in January. We’ve done a viewing, have a second one tomorrow and think it could be a really lovely family home. We’ve not met the homeowners but from what we gather from the estate agents, they’re an older couple looking to downsize now their children have grown up and left.
The property was initially on for 190, dropped down to 180 in January. The front windows aren’t double glazed (stained glass windows have been preserved). I’m suggesting we go in with an initial offer of 168 with a view of increasing to a maximum of 175 at a push. They’re asking for offers over 180 but like I say it’s been on the market a while.
What would you do if you were in my shoes?
