So....after posting last week asking for opinions on choosing between two fab houses, we were shown around house two again (second viewing).
Decided to offer but EA came back saying that someone else had offered a few days before we had second viewing and their offer was higher. There commenced us putting in higher and higher offers until the EA came out with it......she said that if it is our 'dream home' then we should consider putting in a full asking price offer. Well that is more than we consider the house to be worth and would stretch us to the limit, so no go, and also now DP is fuming as he feels we have been 'played' by the EA.
So we a now considering ploughing on with the sale of our own home and going into rented for a while until something else comes up, this could take a while as the are so few suitable/desirable houses in the area we need to be in.
Anyone else been in this position and if so did it work out ok for you?
Thanks
