1. Last time this property was in the market for nearly 7 months and marked as 'sold stc' twice towards end of year as sales didn't go through, when asked EA they are clear it wasn't due to any survey issues.
2. Property is marketed by 2 agencies, I was dealing with one of them from begining they are aware of my interest & position, haven't talked to other one
3. Its not in London but South East
Strategy-1 > Put an reasonable offer now (early) and see the response
Strategy-2 > Wait for 2-3 weeks and if its still in market put the offer, so by that time EA/Seller knows demand is less
Strategy-3 > Contact EA-2 with partner and start discussion from scratch
Strategy-4 > ???
Which could work..? BTW I am doing all kinds of reserach around propery in Rightmove/Zoopla etc..

OK, so ignoring all your prejudices, etc, what did they mean by "not rejected completely"?
Did you ask?…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Rejected completely means other offer accepted - which is not the case, as property is still in the market .If that one is not accepted then we still can have another go.....[emoji29]

Incorrect.
Unless it's you defining "rejected completely" and not the estate agent or seller.
"Rejected completely" means that the offer you made was not accepted and not close enough to warrant a counter offer.
"Offer accepted" means the offer has been accepted, then the house is described as Sold STC. (Subject to contract)…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
