we accepted an offer yesterday for the full asking price (£175,000). The buyer had viewed it for the first time yesterday lunchtime then put the offer in.
Then this afternoon this email appeared from the estate agent
"Mr A has come back and his surveyour who was with him at the property has put a price of £172500 on the property. Mr A is sorry but would like to reduce his offer to £172500. I was not very happy when this happened but I have to put the reduced offer to you. I am sorry. Please would you let me know your thoughts."
Does it not sound a bit fishy? surely he wouldnt have got a valuation back so quickly? is he trying to take us for fools and whats the risk of him doing it again? is it gazumping or something?
