What percentage of an offer under asking price would you accept in the current market?
If your property had been on the market for 3 weeks, with a handful of viewings?

@Alexalee We only has one offer so far and it was 8% underasking. 10% under what our neighbours house sold in July.
Our house has been completely done up and is move in ready. Literally nothing to do. We are even living our range cooker, dishwasher, washing nachine and fridge. All from high quality well known brands.
So I feel we are fairly priced even if the market has slowed down. Wanting to reject the offer, but nonetheless a bit worried if we do.

@superdupernova Thank you. Your figures are helpful.

8% seems pretty normal and fair... if you reject you are likely to lose far more honestly.

You are CHOOSING to leave those things, the buyers are buying a house not your white goods.

They might not even want them in which case its your job to pay to dispose of them.

You can offer to leave them or may even be able to sell them in negotiations but they don't factor into the 'house cost'.
