I believe we were possibly overpaying but were happy to do so, given over the mortgage term and that we're young, and it was a place we really liked it was fine by us.
The fact is we aren't however, willing to decimate every penny of our finances for it.
I agree with somewhat of @Howard perspecitve, there were bids, we won at that price and why should they take 30k less from us when there were potentially other that were in between those values. I guess its a game of wether they're prepared to wait 2-N more months to find out what another buyers lender says and if they have the same problem.
