A novice house hunter here. That amount may not sound a lot if you're looking at houses £200k plus. But we're looking at houses around the £140k-£160k bracket.
Do you think it's worth going to see a house that is ten grand over your budget, in the hope that sellers might accept a lower offer?
The problem is it was originally on for £15k over our budget and it's already dropped by £5k. So I can't see the vendors willing to drop it by a further £10k.
It's a gorgeous house with way more pluses than others on its street or nearby (off road parking, South facing garden, 4 bedrooms, original Victorian features) and needs no work.
Just worried about going to see it, getting hopes up and no point doing so.
It's already very competitively priced. Would you bother to go and see it?

At the lower end of the house market, would you view a house that was already competitively priced and £10k over your budget?
