Interpretation of Seller Behavior

Okok, but one shouldn’t be too surprised in my opinion that the other person fights back. I have written about my experiences and they were partly awful. You can quickly recognize a potential interested party and then maybe find a good compromise with them. As you shout into the forest........it’s ha anyway just (m)y humble opinion.

Yes, it was naive to believe that such a low offer would produce anything other than the experienced reaction. That's how it is when you do something "for the first time." Thread can hereby be closed. I have heard honest opinions and will draw lessons from some of them. Thank you.

I was shocked how he canceled on us and not that. He said he had to pull himself together not to be rude. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

understandable or if you offer 110k below his price? I would do that too. if you’re not under pressure to sell immediately, you wait. Still don’t understand why his attitude surprises you. never sold anything? never been on a trip to Turkey and nicely bargained^^

AMEN

I have already done that too. Only if you have no success, just tick it off.

What exactly is the lesson for next time? How urgently are you looking for something? Not everyone has to make the same mistakes as others themselves, and maybe you can really learn something from it... I still cry today for the first house we looked at, and we made the same mistake... had little knowledge of the market, parents said there was so much to do with the house (the terrace had sunk)... and back then we thought that for the price we could build something new ourselves... Over the years (!) we got wiser but the whole thing almost cost us 5 years because you just can't easily get building land here...

We looked at many houses, bought one and then built, and my experiences are:

1) Banks estimate too low in their systems, for what they said our purchased house with 230 sqm should be worth, back then I wouldn’t have even gotten a shabby semi-detached house on the market
2) Definitely take an appraiser but only to uncover defects, nothing else, and it should be a sensible one
3) Learn from it

The house shown is beautiful... you were the first and before the viewing marathon... that was your chance, you messed it up...

We felt the same back then, begged the seller for ages after that... He put the house online and then sold it to those who, as he called them, appreciated the house the most... who had nothing to complain about and at least didn’t say they were going to renovate half the house... such people are attached to their houses, they don’t want you to mess it up...

So move on...
