ParticipantFreaking unbelievable! Why trade for Suburban when you can get better mileage and less depreciation for a Prius, Accord or Camry? Oh, some big sacrifice. What’s wrong with leftover? Isn’t it still food if not spoiled? Man, these people need to learn to be frugal and humble. Maybe someone should send this family to a 3rd world country to see what life is like so they can appreciate what they have instead of whining about what they used to have.

ParticipantIt does not hurt to hear what people have to offer and perhaps someone willing to strike a deal if they are in desperate situation. I am aware of the board discouraging everyone to wait and buy within couple years but who knows where or when the bottom will hit. If seller is aggressively pricing in 10-20% lower than the current comps, why not strike a deal? I learn from an old wise man (former boss) that it doesn’t hurt to ask or listen. It cost you nothing; we are here to learn from each others.

Participantcvdream,
Since you now the process of buying a home in SD, why don’t you represent yourself and put in an offer directly to the listing agent? This way you save yourself the commission by lowering the price by 2.5-3% as if you were using an agent. Or Tell the seller/agent that the actual offer is higher by 2.5-3% since you don’t have an agent. If the offer is accepted, you also save your self a little bit of money on the property tax. Why pay someone 8K for just writing contract? I am pretty sure you can get a RE attorney to look at your contract for cheaper than that. Just my 2 cents.
