I've been made an offer by a development company to purchase my webapp for 25k. The software took about 4 months to write (weekends only). I'm just curious how much webapps like this usually get bought for. It's built in node, and used WebRTC to create a video link between players at a poker table.
Second, price is often negotiated. A first offer is usually a lowball offer, but not thát low to be laughed out of the room. I'm not saying you can get 500k for it, but 25k does seem low. They obviously want it for something, try and find out how they intend to use or integrate it. Where would the value be for them? If they're a development company, maybe one of their clients asked for something similar? Determine the value and price accordingly. Make sure to make it a win-win scenario; the perfect pricing would be one where they'd actually waste more resources building it vs buying it.
If you do want to sell it now, I would try and get much more than $25k anyway. That seems like a bargain.
Does 25k include the purchase of the domain as well?
Which I would not personally sell for less than 50k.
But again it doesn't have a user base which is why they are shooting for 25k.
If you personally think its possible to get a user base on your time then try it.
I personally would try it just because it looks like a really solid app even though its in alpha.
But I don't develop apps or invest in anything so I would wait for more people to reply who actually have solid experience with this.
I mean I am assuming you know this app has potential to grow but at the same time kinda sounds like you need the money. Which is why I took the time to reply and upvote it so other people can help
and 5k for the domain + social media and fees for transferring everything over
If they are serious they will jump at it
