Have seen a place today that has been on for £285k for a while. We are hoping to get an offer on our place quite soon (and won't put in an offer until we do). I think the price of the place we like will drop soon. I would like to put in an offer but am not going to offer something like £260k as that would mean that we pay stamp duty. If we offer £249,995 then we avoid the stamp duty.
Would this constitute a cheeky offer or do you think it is just a reasonable one? Surely no-one expects someone to pay £260k or somesuch given the stamp duty threshold.
Am I making any sense?!!
