Hello all,
Me and my girlfriend are hoping to buy our first place together. We have spotted a lovely 3 bed end terrace duplex and its current asking price is €375k. We went to view it today and the estate agent (EA) told us that the current owner cannot afford the mortgage on it and will "take a hit" on the asking price. I thought that this was a bit unusual for a EA to say but he has been in the business a long time. We viewed a similar property in the estate that is on the market "EXCESS €350k". This place needed a lot of work, is mid terrace and the street it is on is not near as nice.
I typed the address into google and i spotted that the asking price had recently been dropped from €385k to €375k.
We are both leaning towards the €375k one but are unsure what to bid?? Any help would be appreciated.
