A property developer is negotiating a purchase of some land.
00:05
The owner's made an offer but is set to expire in 24 hours, but the property developer wants more time.
00:10
What should they do? a, reject the offer, make a new one later.
00:14
B, make a counteroffer on different terms.
00:17
C, enter into an option agreement, or d, let the offer lapse and make a new one later.
00:22
So the problem with a or d is they might lose out on this land.
00:27
If they reject the offer or ignore the offer, then this owner might sell to somebody else.
00:34
Should they make a counter offer? well, no.
00:37
That's not very fair to the owner...
