Then I received a counter offer, after I just have my highest and best.

So we counter offered with 370, still above market but way under asking, as that was something we could afford and would leave us some reserve.

Would love to hear anyone's thoughts on what counteroffer you may have for the seller if the deal is worth pursuing at all and how you guys run the numbers and analyze the deal.

I want it to be high enough that they take me seriously and give a counteroffer, but I dont want to give an offer that's too high and they accept it right away. 

Should we just sell traditional way or counter offer the seller financing offer with better terms and what would that be?

I am preparing to counteroffer at a lower price due to the extensive construction needed on this property. 

The counter offer wanted a 30 day close, and I just dont think I could make that happen, and I would likely lose my earnest money.

After you get your bids, decide what type of counter offer you want to make. 

If they counter offer, then you are not obligated to purchase the property.

After more than 30 showings, we received two lowball offers ($525,000 and $545,000) which, of course, we counter offered, but buyers wouldn't budge (and smart enough to know that the cemetery is preventing an easy sale of this house).
