I'd suspect in the 10-20% region from the online figures that are currently doing the rounds for average discounts from asking prices. I get the impression however that he doesn't want to say for obvious reasons

I'm interested, but wouldn't want to say until we'd exchanged contracts, and am frankly surprised that anyone would ask before that!

Good luck John, hope it all goes smoothly and don't forget your option to guzunder just moments before payment is made as the market is falling
