    Legal, unless the seller accepted your offer first.

    My understanding is that, in general, a real estate seller is not compelled to accept any particular offer from a buyer. The seller can pick the offer that he/she believes to be the best situation.

    Now, if the seller accepted your offer and signed something on paper to that effect, then you have a legal contract and the seller cannot turn around and sell to the higher bidder.
