So unless you explain the whole story....either one of these scenerios can apply.
I agree we need to know the whole story.
If the property was listed with a real estate company, wouldn't it be the Listing Agent that is responsible for ascertaining correct market value, not the buyer?
And if the property was a FSBO, the seller may have priced it low for a quick sale and to avoid paying real estate commission.
