Hi all, so we have extended an offer on a new build off-plan property and whilst the sales lady was very polite, she very politely said that this offer will be rejected by the head office and that I should start thinking about how we can revise the offer. Has anyone negotiation experience with developers? How much back and forth is normal? This is one of the last 5 (and most expensive!) houses on the development and I think their mid-year is in June, so I was hoping the prospect of exchanging contracts by the end of June and will be enticing for them? I did tell her already that there isn’t a lot of wiggle room from our side and this is true- if they are not happy and we can’t afford it then we’ll have to walk away, but I hope we’ll come to an agreement. I would love to know what’s normal. Once they reject, should I expect a counter offer or will they just wait for me to come up with something better?
