Two offers in from the weekend viewings, one at asking, one at £20k below. Giving the low offer a chance to re-evaluate his life choices to see if he wants to up it and also making sure both know that the knotweed isn't an issue and that if anyone raises it in future they should know it's all in hand.
Then we'll wait until the place we want to buy has its second viewing from another interested party and if they offer. If not, we'll go in with our low offer (due to the amount of work needed). If the others do offer and depending how much, we'll have to think about how low we go in. The sellers have been pretty obvious about preferring us as buyers so have shown their hand slightly.
