Hi guys
I need some urgent advice here.
I made a written offer on a house today for $565,000 unconditional. The agent said that if I put in $5k more unconditional I will get it. I agreed.
Anyway, I have since found out from the brochure for the property that it was auctioned last month (Dec 19) but it was passed in on a vendor bid of $550,000.
Now, when I asked the agent when i first saw the property how long it had been on the market, he said that it was listed just before Christmas, and that we were one of the first ones to see it.
I feel like I have been cheated and lied to.
The agent is going to fax me through the contract with the new price which he asked me to countersign. I haven't done that yet.
What should I do????? I don't want to pay $570k on a property that had been passed in at $550k. HELP!!
