SIphotography/iStock Can a seller give a counteroffer over the asking price? (It seems strange—if the seller thought the home was worth more, maybe he should have started with a higher asking price.) Well, the short answer is yes. “Absolutely, the seller can counter your offer above the listing price,” says David Welch , a Realtor® in Winter Park, FL. “Whether or not the property will appraise is a different question.” That, of course, is one of the difficulties of findi
