Offer expires before the next viewing, what is best to do?

We have been trying to sell our house in a small town for the past 3 weeks. We had around 7 viewings and two offers. One was too low and they didn't want to negotiate and the other one is 5% below asking price. But the offer expires 2h before another booked viewing.

The price they offered is the lowest we would feel OK accepting (not the happiest for sure), but because there is someone else interest in seeing the house, it makes me wonder if we would get a better offer.

The house is small with a large yard, we did major renovations in the last few years, but the basement is unfinished. There are no other houses in a similar price range as ours, and it's probably a starter home.

I know we are the only ones being able to decide what is best to do. But it's our first time selling a house and still not so sure what is the best course of action to take.

Because we have only received 2 offers in 3 weeks, is it better to just accept this offer, try to give a counteroffer or try to extend/inquire if the other people seeing the house are serious about it?

I would appreciate any thoughts or experiences people have had in the past.

Thank you

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
