Asked to make an offer for the home (6)
I believe the answer is:
bidden
'asked' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'an offer for the home' is the wordplay.
'an offer' becomes 'bid' (bid is a kind of offer).
'for' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'the home' becomes 'den' (an animal's home).
'bid'+'den'='BIDDEN'
'to make' is the link.
(Other definitions for bidden that I've seen before include "Asked" , "Commanded (to do something)" , "Ordered (to)" .)
