Default Offer made on house

Well we had a viewing today and within a few hours an offer has been made.

Its a little bit below asking price, but an opening offer. We shall try to get them to go up a bit.

Its has become obvious this evening that everything is becoming more of a reality and we are talking of booking flights and things now!!!!

Fantastic news - hope they increase the offer. Will you accept the current offer if they don't?

Thats brilliant. I hope they increase the offer a bit, if not I'm with Rooksie. People have been getting ridiculous offers or none at all a little bit below the asking price is good!!!!

We have another two viewing next week and if they know the house is under offer then they may have to put in an offer nearer the asking price if interested.

We shall see.
