People are definitely making offers in multiple properties to ‘secure’ them then deciding from their shortlist.
Also, it’s actually borderline offensive to call people tacky for offering 5% under. 5% under wouldn’t be unusual at all in a normal market and if that’s what they are willing to pay, that’s what it’s worth to them.
On top of that vendors still seem to think that stamp duty has ended and are money grabbing left, right and centre. Homes are being marketed 10%+ over. You’re home is only valued by the agent, it’s worth what someone is prepared to pay.
Here’s where you’re going wrong. Once you make the decision to sell it’s no longer your lovely home. You have to emotionally let it go now or the whole process will emotionally kill you.We had the same too, tacky people offering 5% under. As if I’d ever let our lovely home go to that?!
