Re: Making an offer on a house

But its your money. Postfinance may or may not lend it to you, but their interest is primarily ensure their loan is adequately covered by the property value.

I'm not sure about this "everyone sitting down" bit. It sounds a bit too cosy to me...

I would suggest an independent property evaluation.

I was speaking to a lady at PostFinance re mortagages, and she made an interesting comment. She said that I had a problem because it was obvious I was an expat, and that a seller might try to confuse me into paying too much. I should let an expert (from PostFinance) value the property and then everyone can sit down and find the right price.

Would I be cynical if I thought in that senario everyone, apart from me, wants the highest price possible?
