Hi
We just sold our house and have been looking around for a new one (renting at the moment). We are on the email list of a few estate agents, as they take our details at viewings.
One estate agent has sent around a list of properties with the following guidance on pricing: the asking price is xxx but offers in the region of yyy will be considered.
A typical example would be 'the asking price is 495K, but offers in the region of 420K would be considered'. Its quite a big reduction and we are wondering why he just doesn't reduce the asking price to say 450K so its clearer what the seller is actually looking for?
