This simple answer is no. The is confidential information between the buyer and the seller.

Curt is absolutely correct. Any previous offer on a property should be kept completely confidential to the point that other agents in the same office should't know the particulars. It helps to protect the seller's interest and it also protects the other agents from any possible ethical questions if they are ever in the position of being a buyer's agent on the same property.

As someone else has already pointed out, having your agent perform a Competitive Market Analysis done with the closed and current listings will help you to frame your offer the best. I suggest using current listings as well so that you can ensure that your offer is within a reasonable range with the properties that are the most direct competition.

Thank you,

It depends on how the house is marketed HOWEVER 99.99% of the time you will never know. Our real estate clients information is kept confidential.

If the agent is an ethical listing agent they will not disclose the information and they shouldn't. Your best bet is to have your agent run a market analysis of comparable closed sales. That would give you the opportunity to come up with an offer.

No, agents do not disclose this information becuase it puts their client (the seller) at a disadvantage. If you knew they accepted an offer for much less than what you planned to offer (but the deal fell through). you could offer less and get an even better price. I recommend placing an offer, worst the seller can say is no. Or you could find yourself getting your dream home for a great price. Won't know unless you try. Good luck!
