Legally and ethically, your Broker/Agent did everything right and it sounds like the Seller's Broker did, too. Just because you don't like the results or someone else was more daring than you, doesn't make it wrong.

If you really wanted the home, you should have made an Offer without any contingencies and still have been prepared to increase it, if the Seller had another comparable Offer.
I agree. Time to move on to another property.
