don't really know how to put this...
an acquaintance has passed away and the children are keep to sell us their mother's house privately, bypassing the hassle of putting it on the market and paying estate agent's fees. they also won't need to do much clearing up and can leave it in the shocking state it's in. BUT they'll want us to make a decent offer and have not given us any indication of what they're prepared to accept.
we have no idea what they've put the value down as on the probate forms and we want to make a reasonable offer in the right ballpark.
it's a delicate situation - they're obviously upset over the death of their mother, otoh they've told us they're desperate for a quick sale so don't seem to be emotionally attached to the house.
is there anyway of finding out what they've filed the property as being worth?
