[quote=walterwhite]this is why it might be buyers civic duty to submit lots and lots of shotgun “crappy offers”. like filling the ballot box with fair market value tickets. a “lousy offer’ is im sure still hundreds of thousands of dollars. grrr. like a chick who won’t date sguy because the ones shehe attracts aren’t good looking enough, you just gotta say, lady, take a look in the mirror…you’re kind of a pig…[/quote]
Believe it or not, on a few occasions when we’ve submitted “lowball” offers (still very generous in our minds), the seller lowered the price right after declining our offer.
We like to think we’re doing our civic duty when waking sellers up to the reality of the market with our offers. It does sometimes seem to help other buyers, and that’s a win for us, too. 🙂
