So the chap has fallen in love with a house and made an offer that's 11K under the asking price (£170K). They've rejected us - they think they're on to a winner because it's in great nick and much bigger than the rest of the street.
I'm wavering. It's much bigger than the rest of the street because they've extended it out the back so it's much closer to the maisonettes behind. I know it's a lovely house, it's got loads of space, it's got loads of character (apparently) but I have to take the chap's word for this because all I can see when I look out of the window is the row of maisonettes. (No offence to maisonettes or any other kind of house. They are just there. Right in front of you).
Sorry, it's late, I guess I'm asking 1) are they cheeky to be wanting the asking price (we're first time buyers, we have a mortgage in princip). Do we want it anyway - does anyone have experiences of being very overlooked? My days of wandering around in my knickers are over, I guess. Oh dear.

Was our offer too cheeky? Do I want it anyway? What? Why? How?
