After some thought, they told Jean they'd be making an offer. Carl said: "I am afraid it is going to have to be a cheeky offer," to which Jean reminded them that the property was listed for just under \u00a395,500. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Carl continued: "We are cash buyers and we are going to go in at \u00a380,000," leaving Jean to add: "The agent indicated that she would like to hear offers around \u00a390,000. And you two are rocking in from Warrington and putting in an offer of \u00a380,000!"<\/p>\n
The couple laughed before Vicky noted: "If you don't ask then you don't get do you at the end of the day." Unfortunately for Vicky and Carl, their offer was rejected and the agent came back with a counteroffer of \u00a395,000.<\/p>\n
Keeping their cheeky northern charm, the couple went back once again with a counteroffer of \u00a393,000 which was accepted. But viewers were left stunned that the couple first offered \u00a380,000 which was \u00a315,000 below the asking price.<\/p>\n
