Offer to Purchase

 

If you have your heart set on
a home, be careful not to offer
too low a price.


Once you find the home you love, you have to consider whether you want to take the risk of losing it by offering less than you are willing to pay. Sometimes it is best - for your heart’s sake - to make your highest offer and just be prepared to walk away if it is not accepted or if another buyer offers a higher price. It is tragic to lose the home you love because you bluffed too hard.

Be warned - gazumping occurs because the price of a home is too low.
