THE QUESTION

Priced ~92% above our €507k estimate; 1 red flag before you bid.

Here's my honest read before you bid. The asking of €975,000 is about 92% above where the comparable sales actually land. I'm fairly confident in that, with 10 nearby sales behind it. There is 1 red flag here I wouldn't ignore — the full report names it and what to do. Don't let any “moving fast” pressure rush you — the numbers give you room to bid sensibly and walk away if it runs past what it's worth.
