This is how I feel and I think most of us bears on Piggs feel – we know how much we can / are willing to pay for a house, and if you are willing to take it, then we have a deal.
As someone who has paid CASH for two of the four houses I have bought in my lifetime, I never take into consideration how much the buyer thinks it’s worth – it’s only about what it is worth to me – take it or leave it.
I’m the same person who walks in to a car dealer with a cash limit – when the dealer tries to tell me what I could have for that cash as a down payment, I just let him know that I am a very impatient person and I only have time to see and buy in that price-range and he better get on with it.
I’m saying that the buyers probably don’t really care what you think and don’t owe you no stinkin explanation – I have a feeling that most of the buyers out there right now are us hold-outs that know what we’re doing with our money.
