Cops finally got in touch - investigating officer was unaware of the earlier break-ins and you could practically hear her jaw dropping over the phone.
Trainned it down and went to a couple of other OFIs on the same street as well as touching base with the agents who were holding another - places were nice enough but smaller.
Other party put in another bid at the top of the asking range while I was waiting. Agent advised me to wait over the weekend before I make any decisions about another bid. Will sleep on it before I decide whether to make one final bid or drop out of the bidding - even the estate agent who initially said "it'd be a shame to lose the property over $30k" said "it's getting a bit steep.".
