re: How much should I offer on a home I like? UPDATE

So a higher offer came in... the seller should either 1.) call your Realtor and say you have to beat X or 2.) call your Realtor saying the owners accepted the other offer (odds are that it was right around the price they wanted). I wouldn't give up on the house but you have to manage expectations. We know nothing about the other offer - have they had an inspection? Do they know about the problems the house? Etc. The buyers may back out or try to renegotiate after having an inspection.
Losing out on a house happens. There are always more homes out there. Be patient and you'll get one you like just as much if not more.

This hasn't happened 100%. She thought they would go with the other offer.

Most likely not, 2 have been done already.

I'd assume so. It needs some immediate work.

I'm praying this happens. My wife was in tears a few minutes ago. I'm not in tears, but I'm

Thanks, we've wanted this for a long time. Didn't want to over pay for a home but it's what we really wanted.
