Advice time

This is our first crack at bidding for an established house. We put in an offer of $387k for a house that was advertised at $395k - $435k which by our own admission was a low offer.

Owners have knocked it back, no issue at all why would you ever ever ever accept the first offer, that’s just stupid. They made a counter offer of $415k.

Now what we have on our side is they love our buying t&c’s. Essentially they want to move to Queensland so need a longer settlement date. That’s fine with us we have a rental lease until December, we are willing to break the rental lease but a longer settlement suits us to a tea. We are essentially letting them set the settlement date.

We already have a pre approval for that exact house and address for $400k, they obviously don’t know the amount and we are obviously not subject to selling our house.

In a perfect world we can get it slightly under $400k but we are not willing to go over $400k as that will have us living to close to our means which if Covid did nothing else it taught us take nothing for granted especially work.

We believe time is on our side as house prices are not going up any time soon, they might drop but their definitely not going up.

What should we do, counter offer....how much??

It all depends how much you want this house, compared to what else may come on the market in the next 6 months. If this is a long term play for you then a few thousand to get what you want/suits you is not a huge issue.

You do hold a good card here though, as most people buying are buying to occupy in 1-2 months time, not December. That fact will knock out a lot of their market. Just depend how far you want to push it and your comfort levels.

How long has it been on the market?

Whatever you counter-offer, it does no harm to say this is the highest you can go because the bank won't lend you anything more.

Yeah thats what we will do. We will also make them wait the weekend which suits us as we are in a rental agreement until December so the longer this takes the better it is.

I guess we are bit indecisive but essentially we 'really like' this house. It's not my partners dream house, she is horsey girl her dream house would leave me no change from a cool million dollars. We will not be in the market for our dream house for another ten or so years lol. I spent my first 23 years living in semi detached housing trust houses so anything we get is going to be a 'dream' house for me.

What we are looking at though is trying to get in the housing market we are currently paying more in rent then we would with a mortgage.....complete dead money. Time is on our side and to be honest even if the housing market price doesn't go down it isn't going up any time soon.
