i am interested in a house that was put on the market originally for sale.
Before the first open, they changed it to forthcoming auction.

The agent said he would accept prior offers but all offers must be in by a certain time and date before being considered.

Isn't this essentially a private tender?
Is the agent just trying to suss out interest and price range before going to auction?

Probably. Not worth putting in an offer. They'll see your offer as the starting point at auction.
