A: Your office called and said that the owners had made a counter-offer to my offer to purchase their house.
B: To your offer of three hundred and twenty thousand dollars, the owners have counter-offered three hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars.
A: I think that maybe I should accept their offer.
B: You, of course, have two ways of responding 1. You can say yes or come up with another offer.
A: I want to make another offer, but I am afraid that they will decline 2 and I will lose this house.
B: There is always a chance that someone could outbid you, but you could try one more offer if you like.
A: I would now like to offer three hundred and thirty thousand dollars as a counter-offer.
B: After the owners get home from work tonight, I will approach them with your offer.
A: Can you tell me how long it will take them to get back to me?
B: I don’t think that it will take as long as the response to the first offer.
