I'd be temped to accept the offer and shuffle the sale through quickly
so they don't have a chance to change their mind cos we are teetering
on the edge of ... well if not a property crash then certainly a
property sluggishness. In that position it is much better to be a
buyer waiting to pounce when someone is desperate to sell (for
whatever reason) than to be a seller.

Be prepared to sit in rented accommodation for six months if your
circumstances permit
