Yes, I asked if there was a counter, and I was told that there would be no response! I guess coming within 2% of the asking price was insulting to this particular agent. I have since officially withdrawn my offer. I am walking away...

how long has it been on the market? Is the listing price a good price on the home?

In todays economy, It wouldn't surprise me if he has already dropped the price, perhaps close to his costs, and at your offer he would have been losing money. I agree it's odd that there was no counter.

I've heard of contractors taking jobs at very near cost just to keep their crews working so they don't all leave and go back to mexico where they can live for much cheaper.
