The offers over price is usually quite a bit below the valuation (the home report.) If you offer above the home report you need to pay the excess up front (so if I offered 310k on a house valued at 300k, I'd need to pay my deposit and the 10k up front) because the mortgage will only cover what the house is worth.
Generally speaking at the moment, in areas of Glasgow where theres a demand, you can expect to pay 10% above home report value at the moment - maybe more just now due to the ups and downs of the market with covid. The west end and immediate south side and east end can go quite high over valuation but I can't see East Kilbride going too high over the HR value.
My friends an estate agent and during the summer houses were going for 15% over the HR. Things have definitely slowed down and although she is still working they have furloughed a few staff. With the stamp duty holiday they might be in luck but there’s a lot of new builds around that area for the same price

I tried unsuccessfully to sell mine last year. It’s really hard to sell a house when there are new builds for sale nearby. I can’t offer the incentives that developers can offer. They were offering things like part exchange, free carpets and mortgages paid for a few months.

I’m so about that. I think people just want the Instagram look house now but don’t realise they are so small once normal furniture is in. My estate agent friend has to ask people to get rid of large beds etc when trying to sell secondhand new builds
I bought an old house a few years ago at the fixed price and totally gutted it ( perfectly lovely just old fashioned).It was on the market for a year and I still look at the place and wonder why someone didn’t snap it up

Think it can vary so much. We got our house for 1k over the offers over price and 2k below home report value. But it had been on the market for several months and the owners were keen to move.
