Bidding query

thejuggler · 2017-10-09 09:30:52

Looked at a house 3 weeks ago. Followed up with estate agent who said he has 3 bidders.Asking price is 295k Agent says current bid is 297k. This has not changed in 3 weeks but agent says there is another 10-12k to go. He will only accept increments of 1k Sounds to me like he is bluffing. Have called him a few times over…

Sounds to me like he is bluffing.

Have called him a few times over the period and each time he says he will follow up with the bidders tomorrow.

What would you do?

Bid what you think it's worth.

If it goes above that walk away.
