Got this from an agent today:
The details of your offer have been conveyed to our vendor and it has been
rejected entirely. She does not wish to enter into negotiations.
To be honest, we are very disappointed that you would choose to come in at
such a level, $250,000 which is $69,000 below the asking price. This is
quite frankly ridiculous and in the case of a 70 year old plus owner, very
upsetting.
We are very clear with you when we discuss or show properties to
you on what our owner is likely to accept, or what amount would not be
considered offensive.
If this advice continues to be ignored, and requests are made by you for us to submit completely unacceptable offers, we will be forced to
advise our clients of how you operate giving them the
option to not allow you through their property, or to allow offers
submitted on their behalf to be presented to them.
Unless you are prepared to come in at close to the asking price or above (as
discussed it is being marketed at Price By Negotiation Over $319,000) there
is no point in submitting any further offers on this property.
For future reference, we are not, and will never be able to show properties
to the You on Tuesday mornings. This is the morning of our
weekly meeting and when we view all the new properties that have been
listed. Please keep this in mind - most other days and times can be
arranged with prior notice.
