The warning here is to think about what this reveals about the seller. Is this the kind of person who will they try and raise the price again right at the moment of exchange?
Your sister should think through how she would respond in such a situation and what her relative bargaining power is. Could she credibly walk away from the sale (would she become homeless?), does the seller need to complete as part of an onward chain etc.
