ParticipantSeems like carrying / marketing cost might be peanuts compared with what a bidding war could currently generate?
Granted, I haven’t seen any of these yet.. maybe the asking price is high.. so sure you can get it, but you’re not going to a get a great price; they’ve penciled out what the bidding war would likely generate and are asking that, or close to it. Has to be a catch somewhere.

ParticipantJust a totally crazy thought. Why not just bypass the realtor and contact banks directly?

ParticipantWell, this is a little different in that these have already been purchased from the bank/securities by some investment/venture capatalist enterprise that bought them in bulk for costco like deals, so they are hoping to make a profit by dealing in bulk.
This realtor may very well be effectively playing the role of the employee unloading them (i.e., this IS dealing with the investment firm, not a middle man). The pocket listings of course reward these agents by being on both ends of the deal. I may be horribly mangling this setup of course, since this is all new to me as of a couple hours ago ๐
