Too Low an Offer |
| |
 |
is it possible to make too low of an introductory offer when trying to purchase a house? Can offending the seller make negotiating difficult? |
| |

Yes, and yes. But every person is different, and there's no hard and fast rule. Some sellers would be offended. Some buyers don't care if sellers are offended -- they figure sooner or later they'll meet a seller who is ready to accept a low offer.
My own advice is to make your first offer fairly close to what you'd pay if you had to, something high enough to tempt the seller to accept it then and there and be done with the matter. |
