I agree with toomany, put in your best off and be prepared to walk. Also put an expiry on it. Here is our offer $xxxxxxx and it only lasts till next Friday. If you want to get tough, just say that any offers after that will be lower. Really with houses you need to be prepared to walk away, especially if you can wait or there are others in the area.

There will always be regrets with property, the "if only's". As much as we are happy where we are, there are still a couple of properties we wish had pursued that little bit harder, that is just life though.
