Sorry to hear it but it seems you've got a good handle on the process. The only thing you can do is offer what you're happy to offer, and if it doesn't work out, you've not lost anything. Bidding over what you're comfortable with is a permanent problem for a temporary solution - at some point during the buy process the niggle that you'd paid over would reach critical mass one way or another. Hope your wife recovers soon - it's such an emotive thing. Sometimes immediate viewings of other properties help.

Give it 6 weeks and the winning bidders will have no mortgage on the overpriced house and you'll get a call asking it you still want it...

Update on the blind final best offers from yesterday... We put in an offer 8% above asking price. I was really confident we'd get it, but we actually didn't!
I feel completely fine about our offer and therefore with not being the winning bidder. My wife is also happy with what we offered, but is a lot more gutted than me to have missed out.
Ah well, on to the next one!
