As a renter and renter I try to be nice as possible when declining offers, I don’t want to offend a would be renter by being short or rude. Usually I’ll counter or just say at the price is firm. When renting units, I also low ball. That’s life. When I get a rude response I’ll move on and rather deal with someone who’s at least courteous in declining my offer. Granted, I don’t just throw a low number out. I usually offer something in line with or a bit lower than other listings. Come back at me with a rude decline and I’ll just move on to another renter or other resort. If I really need the reservation then I won’t be so hasty to make a garbage offer in the first place. It’s a business transaction. People want the lowest they can get for the unit.
Just out of curiosity, what is a garbage offer? How low is it? Is it MF? Or below MF?
