Strike While the Iron Is Hot

(act at the best possible time)

If you intend to make an offer on that house you were thinking of buying, now is the time to do it.

But I can only offer considerably less than what the owner is asking. I don't know if she'll accept.

I recommend that you strike while the iron is hot. It's a buyer's market right now. It's a good time to make an offer, even if it is low.

Hmm. I do like the house. I guess I'll give it a try. As you said, my chances for success are greater if I act at the best possible time.

That's right. If you make an offer now, there's an excellent chance that it will be accepted.
