It's a power of attorney sale and mortgage free, and from what the estate agent implied it's two brothers trying to get as much as they can for the cost of care/their inheritance.
We offered x, apparently before they listed it they discussed hoping to get between x and x*1.04.
We've been told they would accept x*1.025 but I'm not sure they actually would, I feel like that might just incentivise them to try to hold out for even more. I'm also slightly hopeful that a couple more quiet weeks without offers and it might seem more attractive. But by then the cheaper place would be off the table I suspect.
Offer (eventually) rejected today.
