Well, that turned out to be a bust.
I knew the asking price was a little steep, but thought there would be some room to move.
Unfortunately, the vendor was not prepared to come down to the amount that I could swing.
According to the company I used as buyer's agent, there have been no other offers, so as a result it is still on the market.
Maybe I'll call them again in a month or so.

I know that you are a long way from Melbourne and Western Australia is very desirable, but the real estate bubble there will bust just like it did in the states.
Good luck favors the patient and prepared...

It seems that this vendor hasn't been paying attention, though.
With a little research, it appears that the property was both residence and business - and the business didn't go too well.
I suspect that if it doesn't move soon, I'll probably be talking to the bank after they foreclose.
Good news is - the wife likes the house, almost as much as I LOVE the shed/workshop.
If it comes into our price range, that's like having a pre-approved loan.
Finally, with a written offer, that information is available to the bank if they intervene.
That makes any such offer first cab off the rank in any mortgagee sale.

The market has really cooled in WA already - most residential stuff is off the recent peak by 10% to 12%. That's the main reason I wouldn't/couldn't match his asking price.

The TN Shed
This is the culmination of about 6 months of work. 60’x40’ roof with 16’ caport and side and rear 8’ porches. The interior box is 32’x36’ with a second floor storage access and large enough for cars of about 2000 sq ft.

A bit of the porcelain collection made it onto the walls...
Compressor is under the left side and beer fridge is on right near the entry door...
Lots left to do!
