Don't know if all TV agents work that way on resales - actually wanted to put in an offer of -7% of asking price.
Glad I went the way I did - love the house and location.

That Village sales rep not only did you a diservice but what they did might have even been illegal. Not extending an offer to a seller is wrong. We purchased a resale thru a village sales rep and were advised what percentage off the listing price is the norm but were advised to use it as a tool...
Offer what you think it's worth not what the salesperson wants you to pay.
