Now I am feeling like of like an idiot. We found a contract that was prices right where we wanted it (we were actually thrilled) and it never occurred to me to offer less. We just said we wanted it. I guess I need to get better at negotiating things. But I am still thrilled with OKW at $52 a point so that is all that matters (and it made it through ROFR)
Don't give up too fast on a contract either. The first go around, the seller countered way too high. I walked away. A week and a half later, they were still listed and I made the same offer. They countered at $2 more per point, which was within my range!

When i did a resale through a broker I made an offer in precisely the amount I would pay. The seller came back with a higher counter. I said good-bye and then made an offer to another seller through the same broker. Amazingly, it was immediately accepted.
For those of you who went through resale negotiations, how many rounds of back and forth offer counteroffer did you go through? Did anyone start with their best offer? Thanks
