A: Has there been any word about whether the buyers have accepted my counteroffer? B: Yes, I was going to call you this morning. Your buyers have responded with a counteroffer. A: Is the counteroffer a good one? B: They are now offering ten thousand less than your asking price. A: That is really a bit lower in price than I would like to go. B: I think that your feelings are valid. You have a beautiful home and can afford to wait for a better offer. A: What is the next step? B: You can flat-out reject their offer and see what they come up with. A: I would like you to notify them that I am rejecting their offer. B: I will notify the buyers that you will not accept their counteroffer.
