had an offer accepted by vendor last week - he pressed for survey to be booked within 7 days. have just got going on mortgage application, solicitors blarh blarh, when today we receive an email from agent ( who must not be named). 'the other buyer' who apparently had also offered same as us before (coincidently) have now put in a 'higher offer'. Agent is legally obliged to put all offers to the vendor.
this house was on the market for a good 18months-2years, and somewhat coincidentally in the last ten days or so, there has been this 'other interested party'. they made offers around the same as ours all the way along, but obviously we were accepted.
I am really really PO . I think this agent has done this many times before.
Or am I being a cynic?
