Smile OMG an offer on the house

Well after being on the market for a couple of months we had our first viewing yesterday. A nice couple who aren't in a chain and from their comments they really liked what they saw. OH got a call from the estate agents today saying that they had made an offer on the house, just under the asking price

Delighted for you. Hope you're happy with the offer and crucially, that your buyers stay the course to exchange and completion.

Congrats, but from other posters on here 'chickens' and 'counting' come to mind. Assume nothing until it's done.

"Just under the asking price"??? In 2009????

Very true, i have knocked it back because we have already reduced and don't want to go lower, besides we're not getting our hopes up
