    Is this thread about low ball strategies or “love” of “dream houses” and regret for not participating more aggressively in bidding wars?

    Thank the new owners. They just brought down the comps some more. The next house will sell even lower. You’ll find another dream house for less 🙂

    You could’ve submitted a backup offer for a few thousand over the accepted price. The seller would’ve known your offer was available if the buyer tried to jerk them around during the escrow process.

    I’m sure you are right and I’m all for the comps coming down. I have been waiting this long for the bubble to pop and I really didn’t want to jump in this early in the downturn anyway, so once again I will sit on my hands and wait.
