Went sale agreed on a property yesterday, had offered 318500. The estate agent came back and said the the seller would accept 317500 with 2500 contents. I agreed provided the take the house off the market.
The EA came back this morning looking for 322000 saying that I should split the difference in the stamp duty. I said no. He apparently put the back to the seller. Phone call back saying the the selling wasn't accepting that seeing as I was prepared to pay stamp duty and now he is saving me this money. I stupidly offered 321000, estate agent came back saying that the seller wasn't accepting that, so I said it was my final offer.
Any opinions/advise.
Thanks.
