[quote=urbanrealtor][quote=SD Squatter]I wonder how widespread this sham is in San Diego area. It seems that quite a few listings appear to be placed “on ice”, typically listed as “not accepting any more offers at this time”or “pending” and that on the first day a property is listed. And then there are these “mailbox full” answering machines…[/quote]
My short sale listings generally go contingent or pending the first day.
That cuz they are cheap and get lots of offers.
I try (but fail) to return all my calls on these.[/quote]
Don’t you think that listing prices are a little low then? Is the goal here to get a bidding war going and close on the first day? I’m just missing the logic here…, why the rush?
