[quote=walterwhite]in a way, isn’t an offer just an option to buy? put in your offer, hang out in escrow a while, if things look downwardly, drag the escrow out, drop out, if things look optimistic for you, negotiate in escrow and buy it then. it’s not like getting married, right?[/quote]
Scaredy, I’ve given up on you..
If the prices really do fall too the bottom again, you’re going to be wondering if it will fall further. If prices are going stay put, you’re going to wonder when is the next leg down…And then when prices start to rise, you’re going to be venting that you didn’t buy at the low….You’re hopeless 🙂
Just kidding. To answer your question. I don’t think folks would agree to letting you hold onto escrow that long.
