We thought the agent's Florida pricing for the house was very high. Two weeks in, there has been no response

have mentioned cutting the price, but she cautions against it. The present price of the house is $25,000 more than we would like to spend. Regarding a contingent purchase, we might sell for a lot less and still be able to facilitate, so we’re kind of in limbo. I would appreciate any advice.

I’ve been in a similar spot with buying a house. We faced a situation where the price was higher than we wanted to spend, and a contingent offer complicated things. What worked for us was to negotiate firmly but realistically, and we looked at ways to make our offer more appealing without just cutting the price. We also explored options like bridging loans or temporary housing if needed. Ultimately, having a flexible approach and being open to various strategies helped us find a solution that worked. It might be worth discussing these options with your real estate agent to find the best path forward.
