Need an offensive offer starting point

[Josh Wallin]

Asking price $799,000. 214 Days on market. Original list price $925,000 in 7/2022. Owner purchased in 2020 for $538,000.  Listing agent says sellers are very motivated. Is $650,000 a good starting point for an offensive offer and try to get a counter to see how motivated they truly are? Where would you start?

You didn’t list any numbers relating to comps or true value of the property.  If you can present a low offer and show why that makes perfect sense in the current market, you can skip the whole offensive part and get right to putting a deal together.  Figure out what number makes this a deal for you and start planning your strategy from there.
