Owners are contacting them (relocation) tomorrow so maybe they liked the offer?


In your offer letter, there is a stipulation saying when the seller must let you know if the accept or decline/counter your offer. Usually around 48 hours.

I would have offered around $140k like others have said. If the owners were actually selling the house, I think your offer was about right. Since you are dealing with a relocation company, $140k is a better starting point since they usually won't take it personally a low offer and will counter.

Price of comps means nothing. $/Square Feet are what really matter.
