I'm not saying I'm a lowballer. I'm looking at making a purchase soon and am just getting a feel.
I was told "don't make an offer too low or else the seller might get offended and refuse to deal with you"...and I'm thinking so what if I am new at this and don't want to get screwed? How could a seller be so closed minded that they don't even consider that there's people like me out there who are just trying to be smart and make sure we aren't getting screwed?
I could be willing to go as high as $330k which the seller might take. So if I offer 300k, and he gets offended instead of negotiating further with me, then he just lost out on a sale. What an idiot.
If he's selling for $350K, maybe, just maybe, he wants more than $330K. Shut the fuck up.
