Default Re: Lowball Offer on House

Offer 235k and see if he gives you the "you're embarrassing me with your offer" routine. If he doesn't, then you could've saved some more. If he does, raise it a little bit and make it 239k so he'll feel good making it 243k to go. Then you make it 240k even.

Oh yeah, there's this great line about negotiating: "your offer is too high if you don't feel embarrassed by it."
