The house has been on the market for a year and the seller is "extremely motivated".
Throwing a low ball price couldn't hurt, no?
It won't hurt at all...and as someone in RE told me, if you're not embarrassed by your first offer, it's too high.
That being said, often times, RE agents will say "extremely motivated" to get you interested in the property. Then, you toss out a number and they come back with "the owner isn't going to give it away." In this market, I don't think anyone is "extremely motivated" enough to cut the price in half of what they're asking.
