I gave him a take it or leave it option but I feel like he was bluffing when it came to getting other higher offers on the house and I ended up being right.

@Marci Stein I'd compromise, let her know that since she declined you had listed the property for $1100 a month and you have several people interested in it at that rate, even show her the listing/responses if you'd like to show her you're not bluffing.

@Mitch Balgobin, BLUF: I don't see this as a very attractive refi package.

I do know that its possible they are bluffing, but i can sure try to get the keys, just want to protect myself.Help and guidance appreciated, thanks!

I have loans with each of the 3 banks in town so they know I am not bluffing.

No that information is kept in confidence by the listing broker and the seller after the sale.Sometimes in commercial real estate after words a broker will send out an e-mail saying sold another one etc. and received this many offers with many above ask but will not go into specifics.I think what you are after is an absolute knowing you didn't overpay or the seller was bluffing.

They may be bluffing you...

how can one be certain they aren't bluffing?

Turns out the Hag was bluffing..

BLUF: I've never bought government-owned or commercial property, but I'm putting together an offer for one (government) and I'm looking for anyone else who may have bought/offered on state-owned and can provide their experience to help me frame negotiations.About the property: State (Virginia) owned property..currently in conservation and the County will convert it to Agriculture post-sale.
