Agent Pressuring to Lower Price

Yep hate anyone who has an agenda. Ie sales.

Whether it be cars, houses

The last time an agent said exactly theses words "oh its only $x difference, it's not much

I reply " oh ok. It's not worth much to you, then you won't have a problem paying the difference for me"

That usually shuts them up

 

I wouldn't sweat it just yet, I remember purchasing in West Melbourne in the height of the Sydney boom and speaking with agents down there they thought the market was "hot" with houses going under offer in a touch over 30 days or so. I then explained how houses were going under offer before the first open home in Sydney. So in comparison I would probably say Sydney is not down, it has just normalized and it is not what people are used too from the last few years.

Edit: just read you've already got an offer. Good work !

 

From my experience -do not drop straight away, try different strategies 1st
